In the four years of the Great Song Dynasty, the situation in the world was still in chaos, and it seemed that the deep dark night seemed to have no end in sight. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Since the Jurchens entered the Huanghuai region in just two months after the two armies entered the country last autumn, the Central Plains completely fell to the enemy. This time, the Jin army can be said to have mobilized all the mobile forces at hand, wanting to capture the Southern Song Dynasty emperor Zhao Gou and destroy China.

First, the Western Route Army crossed the river in Huangzhou after taking Shouchun and Luzhou, and went all the way to Hongzhou to capture the Empress Dowager Yulong; Then Wanyan Zongbi's Eastern Route Army attacked Jinling, and then relied on this big city to use troops to Lin'an.

It's a pity that because Wang Shen was born, he should have defeated Yelu Mawu, who crossed the river, with a thousand troops from the Sizhou Military Region, and beheaded the deputy commander of the East Route Army, Wanyan pulled out the speed, burned all the Jurchen boats crossing the river, and stubbornly defended Jiankang City.

Faced with setbacks, Wushu had no choice but to go east along the river, crossing the river from Yangzhou and Zhenjiang.

Han Shizhong, who was guarding Zhenjiang, was defeated, and the Jurchen army was able to cross the river.

After crossing the Yangtze River, the Jurchens marched along the Grand Canal to Lin'an, the temporary capital of the small court of the Southern Song Dynasty.

In the first month of the fourth year of Jianyan, Zhao Gou abandoned Lin'an and fled south, and Lin'an Mansion fell on January 6.

Subsequently, Wushu led the army to chase after him, and broke through the prefectures of Hangzhou, Xiu, Chang, Ming, Yue, and Pingjiang respectively, as if entering a no-man's land.

Zhao Gou almost fell into the hands of the enemy several times, and even boarded a sea ship and floated on the ocean at the most critical time.

Seeing that there was no way to arrest Zhao Gou, and the Wushu was delayed in Jiankang for a few days, the weather gradually became hotter. The Jurchen could not tolerate the heat in the south, so after finishing Yan Zongbi, he led the army to burn the north of Ancheng. Before leaving, the column plundered, because it was full of plundering and could not travel by land, so it took Xiuzhou, Pingjiang, and Changzhou along the canal.

At the same time, the Jurchen Western Route Army pursued Empress Dowager Longyou to Jiangxi, and after occupying most of the state troops in Jiangxi, it moved its troops to attack Hunan. In the first month, the Jin people surrounded Tanzhou, which was later Changsha, Hunan. Hunan marshal Xiang Ziyan and clan Zhao Yuzhi led the crowd to hold on. On the second day of the second month of February, the city was broken, Xiang Ziyan led the officials to flee, and Zhao Yuzhi committed suicide. The Jin soldiers plundered Tanzhou for six days and slaughtered the city to the north. Tanzhou is the southernmost large city conquered by the Jin people since their invasion.

At this time, the Jurchen military operation of unprecedented scale finally came to an end, and the history called "searching the mountains and inspecting the sea to catch Zhao Gou." ”

On the way back to the north of the Wushu East Route Army, the Jin army went to Zhenjiang and was blocked by Han Shizhong, the envoy of western Zhejiang.

Han Shizhong was originally stationed in Qinglong Town, Xiuzhou, Jiangwan area, Wen Wushu has gone to Pingjiang, but moved to Zhenjiang to wait.

Jin Bingzhi, Han Shizhong with 8,000 people tun Jiaoshan Temple. The vultures wanted to cross the river, sent envoys to ask questions, and made an appointment for war. The two armies fought for dozens of rounds, and Han Shizhong's wife Liang personally beat the war drums to help, and the Jin soldiers were never allowed to cross the river.

Although the Jurchens were strong, their combat effectiveness was greatly limited by the terrain, and they could not exert two percent of their strength, and they were blocked by the Song army.

In desperation, Wushu sent an envoy to Han Shizhong again, saying that he was willing to return the property and population captured in Jiangnan, and gave him a number of good war horses. After being rejected by Han Shizhong, the helpless Wushu had to lead his troops westward along the south bank of the Yangtze River, and Shizhong led the ships to follow the north bank of the Yangtze River in parallel, fighting and walking, and finally blocked the Jin soldiers in Huang Tiandang.

The Jurchens had never fought such a battle since the start of the army, and they were about to collapse because of the water network and heat in the south of the Yangtze River.

Relying on the water army, Han Shizhong ate the vultures to death. It is said that if we continue to fight according to this tactic, we should be able to achieve good results.

Huang Tiandang is a backwater port, and the Jin army has broken through many times, but it has not worked. Later, I heard that there was an old stork river that could lead to Qinhuai, so the army dug it and opened the canal for dozens of miles overnight. Relying on this method, he finally escaped from Huang Tiandang, and plundered ships along the river to fight with Han Shizhong.

Like the Battle of Huang Tiandang in real history, Han Shizhong was defeated, and his 8,000 men and horses were defeated, so he had to retreat to Zhenjiang, so that Wushu could return north.

Relying on the battle of Huang Tiandang, Han Shizhong made a name for himself and became a rising star in the military circles of the Southern Song Dynasty. Although Han Liangchen was defeated very badly in this battle, he also made a small gain, which can be regarded as a little comfort to the Chinese people.

The war in Jiangnan subsided, and Zhao Gou finally took a breath and was able to gain a foothold in Lin'an.

However, at this time, the provinces south of the Yangtze River were already in a state of decay under the ravages of the Jurchens, local thieves swarmed, the central government decree was not implemented, and the civil strife was out of control.

At the same time, the Henan side has completely fallen. Jingkang was humiliated, the two emperors were captured, the land north of Henan was golden, Jin was stationed in Suizhou and Luoyang, and only Tokyo and were still controlled by the Song Dynasty, but there was a shortage of food for a long time, and the transportation was cut off. Nie Yuan, the leader of the Hebei army of the Jin Kingdom, often traded with the Song soldiers defending the city with food, and after a long time of familiarity, the Song army relaxed its vigilance.

In February of this year, Nie Yuan led the crowd to the city at night, set fire to the city tower, and left Shangguan Wu and Zhao Lun, the deputy of Tokyo, ran away, and Tokyo fell. Shangguan Wu was killed by Dong Ping in Tangzhou, and the four capitals of the Northern Song Dynasty fell into the hands of the Jin people.

As for the Guanzhong region, the situation is now too bad to be worse.

Shaanzhou is the strategic passage from the Central Plains to Guanzhong, and if you want to destroy China, you should take this place first. In December of the first year of Jianyan, the Jin army attacked the Song Dynasty in three ways, and Wanyan Lou's room crossed the river from Shanxi out of Tongzhou, captured Tongzhou, Hua Prefecture and Tongguan, and Wang Hao, the defender of Shaanxi, automatically gave up and entered Sichuan.

In the spring of the following year, Li Yanxian, the stone trench lieutenant, planned to recover Shaanzhou, and the imperial court ordered him to be the governor and pacification envoy. The soldiers and people in Kaifeng, Luoyang and other places rushed to return, and the 5,000 righteous troops of the Shaoxing Department in Jiezhou also listened to Li Yanxian's moderation, and the army was greatly boosted. Li Yanxian actively prepared for war in Shaanzhou, repaired the city and dredged the trenches, sharpened equipment, accumulated grain, and boosted morale, and the people's hearts were strong and usable.

In the autumn of the third year of Jianyan, Jin once again raised troops to attack the Song Dynasty.

In December, the Jin army besieged Shaanzhou with all its might, intending to go down to Shaanzhou first and then move westward. Li Yanxian decided to defend it. From the beginning of the first month of this year, Wanyan Lou Room strengthened the offensive, dividing the Jin army into ten teams, one team to attack for one day, attacking in turns, using a variety of attack tools such as goose carts, overpasses, trains, and rushing cars.

The soldiers and civilians in the city fought bravely, and fought more than 200 times with the Jin soldiers.

Li Yanxian shared weal and woe with the army and the people, the food in the city was exhausted, and the soldiers cooked beans for food, and he only took bean juice for his own drinking.

The Jin army lured him to surrender with wealth and wealth, and Li Yanxian beheaded him. In the middle of the first month, there were many Jin soldiers, but Song reinforcements did not arrive. Privet captured the city, the army and the people insisted on street fighting, Li Yanxian was wounded and martyred, and 51 people including the general Chen Sidao died with him, and no one surrendered. Shaanzhou fell.

In April, the Jin army attacked Tongguan, occupied Sanyuan, Qianzhou, Pizhou and other places, garrisoned Chang'an, and Guanzhong fell.

By this time, the entire north of the Great Song Dynasty had fallen into the hands of the Jin people, and the land area was only half of that year, and there was continuous civil strife, which was simply stormy.

Considering that Guanzhong is a place to be contested, if this place, the Northern Expedition is hopeless, as early as last year, Zhang Jun, the deputy envoy of the Privy Council, saw that there was no hope of entering the political hall, so he put forward the idea of passing through Shaanxi, and asked for an order to go to Guanzhong to supervise the army.

It's a pity that the Wushu entered the Kou and disrupted his arrangement, and after the Jurchens withdrew to the north and the court was able to breathe, he played Zhao Gou again.

Zhao Gou also realized the seriousness of the problem, so he appointed Zhang Jun as the prime minister of Sichuan and Shaanxi Xuanfu to deal with the military administration of Shaanxi and Sichuan.

It was against this background that Zhang Jun left Lin'an and sailed up the Yangtze River, preparing to go to Shaanxi via Jingchu to preside over the overall situation.

"You want to see Zhang Deyuan in person?" Kong Yanzhou asked with a smile.

Lu Benzhong: "Naturally, the old man will tell Zhang Xianggong the truth about the Qi and Huang wars and the brutal expropriation and cruelty of the people after Wang Shen came to Chudi, there is justice in the world, I want to see how long the shaft can be rampant?" ”

"Haha, haha!" Kong Yanzhou suddenly burst out laughing, laughing to himself so much that the hall echoed endlessly.

Suddenly, Lu Benzhong was a little frightened and shrank back: "Why is the general laughing?" ”

Kong Yanzhou put away his laughter and suddenly asked, "Lu Benzhong, where is Zhang Deyuan now?" ”

"This and this...... It should have passed Jiangzhou, perhaps it has arrived in Shuzhou. ”

Kong Yanzhou: "Hehe, I'm afraid you don't know where he is now, but you came to earn me, and you don't want to run away, am I really Kong a fool or a fool?" ”

"I, I, I ......" was drunk by Kong Yanzhou, Lu Ben was frightened, and his body began to tremble violently: "General, general, you have to believe me!" ”

"Bang" Kong Yanzhou kicked on the chair, and Lu Benzhong jumped up like an electric shock.

Kong Yanzhou laughed, and said with a gloomy face: "Master Lu is amazingly talented and unparalleled, and there is still something important to defend Qi Chun, how can I be willing to let you go?" However, my heart is to the court, and I want to give it a try when it comes to recruiting peace. Didn't you say that you and Zhang Deyuan have a good relationship, so it's okay, you write a letter, and I will send my relatives and henchmen to sneak out of the city and go down the river by boat, so naturally you can meet Zhang Xiang, so you won't bother the old man. ”

"Yes, yes, General Cheng values it, so the old man will stay and share the weal and woe with you, so I will write a letter."

After taking the letter from Lu Benzhong and taking a look at it, Kong Yanzhou laughed proudly; "Yes, yes, this letter is well written, if there is really the creation you said earlier in the future, Lao Tzu will definitely not treat you badly. The rich woman wants to give as much as she wants, haha! ”

No matter how you look at it, Lu Benzhong's suggestion is the only way to break the extremely dangerous situation in front of him, and it is also very clever.

Suddenly, his heart was relieved, and he felt so happy for the first time in two months.

Speaking of the rich woman, his lower abdomen suddenly became hot, and he was surprised to find that he had not been close to a woman for almost ten days, and he suddenly couldn't stand it.

Damn the king and the little thief, forcing Lao Tzu to be so embarrassed, straight thief, grandpa wants to be happy and happy with the ten daughters today.

Otherwise, go back to the inner house and rest for two hours.

Forget it, forget it, those wives and concubines have slept for so many years, and they have long lost interest, so let's change to a new taste! It's just that the people in this city have all died, and even a young woman who has not yet breathed her breath has been hungry for so long that she has no eyes to look at it.

Hey, didn't a certain person once send three women to Lu Lao Pifu?

The three little ladies were born quite well, especially the little peach, which was simply a ripe peach that bubbled up with a pinch of her hand.

Thinking of this, Kong Yanzhou set his eyes on Lu Benzhong and said with a lewd smile: "Master Lu." ”
