Song Jin's middle route army took the lead in the Jianghuai, because Yu Yunwen had already deployed, had let the old Jiang Li Xianzhong go to Luzhou to fortify, so the defense along the Huaihai was very solid, in the case of occupying the geographical advantage, so that Wanyan Yungong's army temporarily stagnated along the Huaihai line.

Previously, in this Huainan theater, a ridiculous military tradition of the Southern Song Dynasty was followed. That is, Zhang Jun, who was insisted on by the so-called four generals of Zhongxing, created a military strategy of sitting in Jiangnan and commanding Jiangbei!

Jiankang Mansion, which is now Nanjing, is on the south bank of the Yangtze River, and is far away from Huainan important towns in the north of the Yangtze River, such as Luzhou.

This indicates that before the confrontation, the plan to abandon the Jiangbei states has been thought of, and this kind of escapist shameless style of fighting is not surprising at all when it was born in the Southern Song Dynasty.

However, this time Yu Yunwen and Li Xianzhong supervised the battle, and this erroneous strategy was naturally completely abandoned. Instead, he took the initiative to cross the Yangtze River and set up defenses along Luzhou in Jiangbei to resist the Jin soldiers!

Wanyan Yungong led the army to cross the Huai River from the vortex several times, but was met with head-on attacks by the Song army. The Song army may be much inferior in offensive warfare, but guarding and defending is an old skill.

Compared with the tug-of-war in full swing on this side of the Huai River, the other two Jin soldiers are relatively quiet.

Jin Bing's East Road Naval Division met the Song Army's naval division on the coast, and after only a few encounters, they were in a situation of confrontation with each other.

On the other hand, the army of the Western Route of the Jin State was even more slow to march snails, and the battle of Jianghuai had been fought for a long time, and Liu Meng's army was able to enter the border of Shaanxi and Sichuan.

In the big tent of the Chinese army of the Jin soldiers on the north bank of the Huai River, Wan Yan Yungong was so angry that he immediately overturned the table after learning the news of the military reports of the two armies.

"Bastard! It's all rubbish! ”

Wanyan Yungong has forgotten that he is the commander of the three armies at this moment, and he has forgotten that he is the dignified prince of the Jin Kingdom. Without the slightest disregard for the due prestige, he began to abuse in the tent of the Chinese army.

At this time, in the big tent, there were two people besides Wanyan Yungong.

One of them is a stout man dressed as a military general, his face is as black as a pot, and his hair is not too long to be coiled into a twisted shape.

The other is a full Han Chinese, a cultivator to be exact.

This person claims to be Fenglingke, and his name is Xuanjizi, but no one knows the real name of this person. I only know that this person is proficient in the art of Qimen formation, and three years ago, Mao Sui recommended himself to join the account of the prince Wanyan Yungong.

In the past three years, Fengling Ke has made a lot of suggestions for Wanyan Yungong, and it is precisely because of the participation of this Fenglingke that many affairs are planned and completed naturally, so Wanyan Yungong has relied more and more on this person since then.

After seeing that Yan Yungong was really angry, Feng Lingke shook the feather fan easily, stroked his beard and said happily: "The prince doesn't need to mind, the so-called water is impermanent, the army is impermanent, how can the march and fight be achieved overnight?" ”

The vanguard general Nahetu on the side also comforted: "What the military advisor said is very true, and please ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to calm his anger!" ”

"Humph! What you said was light, and you can know that this time it is inevitable to take the initiative to ask for help. If you can't return triumphantly, what face will you have to meet your father? ”

"This is all a poor mistake, and please ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to surrender his crimes!" Feng Lingke knelt down as he spoke, with a solemn look on his face.

Wanyan Yungong saw that Fengling Ke was so gifted, and his anger disappeared mostly, and then he waved his hand impatiently and said: "Okay, okay, you can't blame Mr. for this matter, this initiative to ask for help, although it is said that Mr. mentioned yì, but it is also recognized by Lone himself!" ”

Then Wanyan Yungong walked down the steps, put his hands behind his back and said to himself: "Even if Lone's southern expedition to the south is hindered by Song Man, it can't be cheapened King Deng!" Didn't he insist on taking command of the southern expedition? Lone just didn't give him this chance! ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is wise! If King Deng is allowed to lead the troops this time, his power in the army will be more stable in the future, which is a big threat to you, Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince! ”

Wanyan Yungong sighed thoughtfully: "Yes, this King Deng is really not simple, if it weren't for Mr. Cun's repeated reminders, Gu has been kept in the dark by this imperial brother." I always thought that he was just a person who was greedy for pleasure, but he never thought that he would secretly collude with Liu Meng to expand his power, which was really beyond Lone's expectations! ”

"It's just a jumping clown, this time His Royal Highness put An Guogong's Liu family's army on the west road to conquer from the flank, which is enough to completely wipe out this bit of King Deng's heritage!"

"Sir's layout is good, but now Lone's mid-lane army is blocked, but it makes Lone have a headache......"

"His Royal Highness the Prince, there is a clever plan here in the poor road, but it is ......"

When Wanyan Yungong heard this, it was like a long drought and nectar, and immediately hurriedly asked, "What is the clever plan of the gentleman?" ”

"Hehe, Your Highness, don't worry, please let the poor Dao speak slowly......"

Fenglingke looked unfathomable, just smiled slightly, and then explained: "Since ancient times, the Yangtze River has three gorges, well-known at home and abroad, but the Huai River also has three gorges, Huaishui from Tongbai Mountain rolling east, to Bagong Mountain under the ring to the north, around the peaks, soaring waves, suddenly through the steep gorge pass!" ”

"This gorge pass is the first gorge of the Huai River, and it is the narrowest gorge in the Three Gorges. The average width is only more than 100 zhang, the narrowest place is only 30 zhang, the dangerous rocks on both sides of the strait are confronted, the cliffs are like cutting, there are many natural dangers here, so there are loopholes in the distribution of the Song army's troops! ”

Fengling Ke talked eloquently, and after hearing this, Yan Yungong was overjoyed and excited, but General Nahetu on the side questioned: "The last general also knows what the military advisor said, although the Song army's defense is very weak in this gorge pass, but since it is a natural danger, how can it pass lightly?" ”

This sentence was like a basin of cold water poured on Wan Yan Yungong's head, Wan Yan Yungong looked at Feng Lingke with frowns, hoping that Feng Lingke's brain would not be short-circuited at this time, and he continued to say surprises that surprised him.

Sure enough, Fenglingke didn't disappoint him, only to see Fenglingke gently fanning the feather fan, and said confidently: "Natural danger? There is no endless road, as long as there is a road, it can naturally lead to guò. Poor Dao has already taken local materials on the north bank of the gorge pass, and made a large number of rafts and bamboo rafts, as long as His Royal Highness gives an order, he can secretly cross the Huai River! ”

"Oh? Sir, prepared? Wan Yan Yungong's face was overjoyed when he heard this, this was the most pleasant news he had heard these days.

"Since the military division has already made arrangements, Your Highness, the last general will send soldiers to cross the gorge pass at night!"

"The general is wrong, this time the secret crossing of the gorge pass, the general needs to personally lead the army to go, so that he can better grasp the fighter. And the camp of the Chinese army is personally seated by His Royal Highness, and Poor Dao temporarily acts as the general's order, so that he can feint and confuse the Song army! ”

"This ......"

At this moment, Nahetu hesitated, he was not worried about the danger of the Dark Crossing Gorge Pass, but he was concerned about whether this army could be dispatched in an orderly manner if there was no command from him.

After all, although Wanyan Yungong is the commander of the three armies this time, he doesn't know anything about the transfer of troops.

Even the cubs born of wolves that grow up in greenhouses will slowly turn into hunting dogs!

Although the Jurchens were all brave, these characteristics gradually faded over time, especially the royal family who enjoyed the glory.

"Don't you think that there is no one in this army who can send troops except for the generals?" Fengling Ke saw that Nahetu did not express his position for a long time, so he mocked lukewarmly.

As soon as Feng Lingke finished saying this, Wan Yan Yungong's face suddenly changed, and seeing that Na Hetu wanted to explain, Wan Yan Yungong waved his hand and said impatiently: "Okay, just follow what Mr. said!" ”

For Wanyan Yungong at this moment, what he needed most was to cross the Huai River, which was tightly sealed by the Song army, and other things were not in his consideration.

"The last general obeys!"

The commander had an order, and Nahetu, as a vanguard general, had to obey, and after arranging the affairs of the army, he handed over the temporary command of the army to Fenglingke.

For Nahetu, he also hoped to take this opportunity to take a salary from the bottom of the kettle and directly break through the defense line of the Song army, so this time he was seriously preparing to cross the Huai River secretly.

After drawing a large number of soldiers familiar with the nature of the water in the army, Nahetu led an army on a mighty night march to the gorge and mountain pass.

At this moment, in Lin'an City, the former Prince Gong's Mansion has now become the Xingyuan Pavilion Station where King Zhao Zhuo temporarily lives in the capital.

The night is hazy, the lights are like beans, the screen window is glowing under the reflection of the light, and Zhao Zhuo, the king of fortune, stands in front of the window at this time, admiring the bright moonlight of the capital.

At this moment, a figure wearing a black gauze hat walked into this extremely quiet study.

"You're here......" Zhao Zhuo didn't seem to be very surprised, but said hello as a matter of course.

"Ready?" Under the black hat, a man's voice sounded.

Zhao Zhuo nodded slightly: "The army of the imperial court has already reached the front line, and it's time for us to do it!" But ......"

"Are you worried about someone?"

"Not bad! This king is worried about a person, aren't you? Fu King Zhao Zhuo turned around and glanced at the man in black deeply, then shook his head and showed a bit of mockery.

There was a cold snort from under the black gauze hat, and then he said: "I have to say, he is the most difficult person I have ever seen, otherwise I would not have fallen into such a situation......"

"He's better than you!"

"I don't deny this, but he won't be used by you after all!"

One said directly, and the other answered simply!

Fu Wang Zhao Zhuo immediately sneered: "But there is one thing you have to be stronger than him, and that is to be vicious enough!" ”

"What, you're scared?" Under the black hat, there were bursts of sneering.

"Afraid? Hahaha! How was this king afraid? How is Dali's preparation? ”

"All the qiē have been arranged, and at the critical moment, the Dali Council will send troops to suppress it, so that it can also help the Sichuan and Shu army resist the Jin soldiers ......"

"Well, no matter what, I can't let Jin Bing enter the territory of my Great Song Dynasty! You can rest assured, after this king sits on the throne, he will not break his promise! ”

The man in black didn't think so, but said coldly: "Hmph! We'll talk about that later, it's time for us to get out of here! ”

"Yes, it's time to leave, Zhao Yan wants to trap this king here, but unfortunately he miscalculated!"

Fu Wang Zhao Zhuo closed the screen window as he spoke, and then the lights in the study went out, and the entire courtyard of the mansion fell into silence.
