Chenliu County, in the Spring and Autumn Period, was the land of Zheng State, which was invaded by Chen, so it was called Chenliu. Xu Wei led the defense of the six counties in southern Beijing, and sent all the commanders to each county to sit in Chenliu in the southeast of Beijing. On 15 November, he led Ma Tai, Yang Yan, Du Feihu, Zhou Xiong, Li Guan, Zhang Hong, and others to inspect the defense terrain.

Although Chen Liu is only a county governor, because of its location and historical evolution, the city wall is relatively strong and can be relied on. It's just that the terrain of the county is relatively flat on all sides, which is conducive to the maneuver of the Jin army. Once the battle is opened, the coordination between the six counties, as well as the coordination between the two armies of Xu and Yao, will be the key to victory. It's just that with Yao Xiyan's temperament......

"Commander, according to your order, I have analyzed in detail the tactics of the Jin army besieging Taiyuan. There is a common denominator that the Jurchens are shorter than attacking fortifications, so before attacking a city, the perimeter must be cleared. If the enemy is forced to advance and wants to try Tokyo, then our army and Yao Dutong will bear the brunt. Zhang Hong, who was born in the Western Army, reported behind Xu Wei.

This is Fanzhuang outside Chenliu County, and the people of the village are quite vigilant about the arrival of a group of heavily armed and well-armored officers. The children were always curious, and stood from afar to watch, their eyes wandering over the armor and weapons of the group. But he was picked up by the adults and fled home like a plague, which made the officers of the Qunhu Jie Township Army very embarrassed.

"Then, then, wouldn't Chen Liuzhi ......" Chen Liuzhi County is an old man who is almost fifty years old, with a kind and kind appearance, he clasped his hands together when he was fine, and smiled on his face. Hearing Zhang Hong's words, he was shocked.

When Xu Wei heard this, he smiled and said with relief: "Don't worry, the county magistrate, the Jin army is coming from afar, so as to fight." And its vanguard must be cavalry, so there is no need to worry. It is the arrival of the rear army of the gold thief, our strong wall is clear, and we are waiting for work, so why be afraid? These words comforted and comforted a layman like Jiang Zhixian who could still fool the past, but anyone who knew a little about military affairs couldn't hide it. The Jurchens started in the mountains and forests, became in the plains, and since the attack on Liao, their combat power has increased greatly. Not only in terms of troops, but also in terms of the tactical literacy of the army. Especially the siege battle, which can be seen from the Battle of Taiyuan. The Jurchens learned quickly and were already capable of building large siege engines. If you want to block the Jin Army, you have to fight for every inch of land! No county can give up easily, and it is necessary to make the Jurchens pay a heavy price for every step they take, and consume their vitality to the greatest extent. Of course, if the imperial court is determined and the generals can work together, the Song army will not only be limited to defense.

When Jiang Zhixian heard this, he nodded again and again: "With Commander Xu in charge, Chen Liudang has no worries." The battle of the Purple Mountain pontoon bridge, the county has also heard of it, and admires it tightly. ”

Xu Wei smiled and didn't say much, so he ordered the soldiers to summon the local Baozheng. Once the Jin army forced into Tokyo, Bao Zheng was responsible for evacuating the people to the county seat, and the Jurchens were the characters who killed people without blinking. Besides, don't say that this is ancient times, that is, thousands of years later, in the eyes of the powerful side, the distinction between soldiers and civilians is always very blurred.

After a short time, the soldier reported that Bao Zheng had been summoned by a general. Xu Wei was suspicious, this is my defense area, who is still qualified to recruit Baozheng? Just when he was puzzled, Yang Yan suddenly shouted, "Brother Jiu, look. ”

Looking for prestige, I saw a group of military attachés in military uniforms walking slowly accompanied by a man in a short jacket and a soft wrap on his head. Obviously, Yao Pingzhong also saw Xu Wei and walked over with his subordinates with a wave of his hand.

Xu Wei led his troops to salute and said: "I've seen Yao Dutong." ”

"I thought that there was a remnant army that had not been organized to 'borrow grain', but it turned out to be Xu Jiu." Yao Pingzhong glanced at Xu Wei and said with a smile.

Xu Wei also smiled: "I almost lost my eyes when I was lowly." ”

Yao Pingzhong was stunned when he heard this, he didn't do much, but the general behind him became angry, and one of the insiders shouted loudly: "Xu Wei! You don't see a sir! ”

Yang Yan seemed to be ready to block the front for Xu Wei anytime and anywhere, and shouted when he heard the words: "The dog that bites people is not ......."

Xu Wei raised his hand to stop it, and said with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, the great enemy is at present, and your two armies defend Gyeonggi, and the responsibility is heavy. Let's not do this rotten war of words, right? My generation of martial artists should speak with a sword! ”

The voice fell, Yao Pingzhong was beside him, less than thirty, with a pair of hanging horned eyes, high cheekbones, and a thin face, but he had big shoulders and a thin waist, and his body was eight feet long! Except for Pharmacist Guo, this person is the most powerful person Xu Wei has ever seen. At this time, this person almost put the iron gun in his hand in front of Xu Wei, and hissed: "Is the gun okay?" ”

Yang Yan and Ma Tai were furious! He stretched out his hand to draw his sword, but one of them was faster than them, and the man fell to the ground, and the iron spear in his hand had been swung away, and when he looked again, a bent knife was lying in front of him. Everyone regarded it as the first commander and deputy commander of the Hujie Township Army, Du Feihu.

The two groups of people were tense, and Yao Xu and his subordinates were each drunk. Although Yao Pingzhong despises Xu Wei, there are still a number of major issues of right and wrong, and at the moment of a strong enemy, how can he do it first with his own people?

"Some strength!" The general took the iron spear, stared at Du Feihu and nodded.

Du Feihu's face full of anger also showed a smile: "Each other." ”

Xu Weiqi's appearance reminded him of a person, but it was inconvenient to ask. At this time, Yao Pingzhong had already led his subordinates to turn north, walked a few steps and turned back, looking directly at Xu Weidao: "Xu Jiu, I really didn't expect you to fight the enemy with me." Wait, I'll teach you how to fight. "Say that, and walk away.

Yang Yan took a sip: "What! ”

In late November, Xu Wei again received news that the Jin army was attempting to force a river crossing at Ligudu, and sent part of the army to test it. The envoy of the Gyeonggi system, Xishuai Yao Gu knew the stakes well and sent Xu Yuan to personally command. The Jin army has repelled two offensives, killed thousands of enemies, the river is red, the Jin army is not giving up, is requisitioning ships everywhere to try to force the crossing, Wei County behind the Cizhou Zhizhou Zong Ze claimed to lead the troops to cut off the back road of the gold thief, and the separation will not be stagnant because of this.

Soon, the imperial court also received the war report, which made Zhao Huan, who was so anxious that he was burned inside, like a long drought and a rainy day, under great joy, he issued an edict to reward Yao Gu Xu Yuan, and added Xu Yuan "Baoshun Army Cheng Xuan Envoy", Cheng Xuan Envoy used to be called "Jiedu Observation and Stay", and it is not difficult to see from the literal meaning that Xu Yuan is only one step away from the supreme glory of the military ministers.

But God didn't seem to want to make the Great Song Dynasty monarchs rejoice for a long time, and at the end of November, the Jinxi Road Army heard that the East Road had swept Hebei and went straight to the Yellow River, and Taiyuan still did not resist after paying huge casualties. Unexpectedly, regardless of the threat of being cut off and the supply is not smooth, the famous general of the Liujin Army continued to besiege the seed master, and he himself led more than 20,000 elite soldiers to the Yellow River. Shihedong was completely out of control, Taiyuan was alone, and Muhan did not encounter any effective resistance all the way south, so he ignored the advice of Han Liao officials in the army to remind him not to go deep alone. Soon, the army came to Zezhou and approached the Yellow River. Takashiyu, the governor of Zezhou, did not make any resistance and surrendered directly.
