Chapter 618: Heading North (8)

The only realistic option now, in the military language of later generations, is to retreat and fight a decisive battle. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info used the guard war to delay the Jurchen Tartars to move south, along the way to clear the wilderness, and finally fought desperately on the battlefield selected by their own home to support Since the loss of Yingzhou Pass, the main force of the Jurchen West Route Army in Datong Mansion in Xijing was opened, which is also the only remaining choice.

But Lu Junyi can't advise Han Shizhong to retreat, so he has to give an explanation to King Jin no matter what, right? But these words made a lot of trouble that day, and Lu Junyi couldn't say it, so he could only talk about him left and right: "I don't know when the main force of General Han's brigade will arrive?" ”

Han Shizhong shook his head: "Yingzhou has been lost, and I can't get it back, I have already sent a horse to return, so that Han Jiang's main brigade will stop in Wuzhou and use it as a harem to pick us up." ”

Lu Junyi was shocked, he had already heard his decision from Han Shizhong's words, when the Lou Chamber's troops rushed out of the mountains, there was no need to fight this war of attrition, could it be that with inferior troops, it would be impossible to fight a decisive battle with the Lou Chamber's subordinates here?

At this time, only retreated, Yingzhou was almost completely lost, the initiative fell into the hands of the Jurchen Tartars, Zonghan's main force went south, not only Yunnei was not guaranteed, Hedong was facing unprecedented pressure, and the Jurchen Tartars East Road Zongwang Department was linked to the south, and the situation in Hebei Zhulu was even more unbearable.

Bianliang, those opponents of the King of Jin, can they still give the King of Jin time to maneuver and spread? Not to mention a group of good men in armor and swords!

Han Shizhong also had a dark face, but as the main general, no matter how difficult the decision was, he had to bear it at home, he waved his hand and was ready to give an order, gradually gather the Sentinel Sentry Team, and make preparations for retreating from Wuzhou and meeting the high pets of the Flying Fox Pass, although it will take four or five days for the main force of the Lou Room to rush out of the mountains, but it is not so easy for two or three thousand soldiers and thousands of people to retreat, and it must be prepared as soon as possible.

Just when Han Shizhong was about to give an order, Lu Junyi hung his head and was very reluctant to accept this order. I heard a Chinese army guard walking quickly into the tent and hurriedly reported: "General, our people from Yingzhou have rushed out!" ”

Han Shizhong and Lu Junyi quickly glanced at each other, and they both took the case: "Bring it in quickly!" ”

"There are still tens of thousands of people coming, General Han wants to rescue Yingzhou, it is important to return to Yanmen Pass in Hedong to set up defenses, I am worthy of my brothers, worthy of the King of Jin, let him avenge us." There are only a few handwritings, but it is so deep that it makes people breathless, Bing Jin King's order, go north to the bitter cold land of Yunnei, defend Yingzhou in the wind, frost and sword, Shi Yong's relayed the battle so tragic that Han Shizhong and Lu Junyi were all moved, and the soldiers of the Shence Army gritted their teeth and fought until the end!

The man of the good Han family really did not disappoint his family, Han Shizhong clenched his fists, and endured what he wanted to say, Lu Junyi stood up and sat down, his eyes only fell on Han Shizhong, Shi Yong winced and looked at these two generals who were said to be much higher than Xue Yong's status, and his courage became strong and strong, and finally said in a voice like a mosquito: "I look at the Jurchen Tartars, it's just like that, there are hundreds of horsemen, and the people will be rescued, and one of them will be rescued!" ”

Han Shizhong and Lu Junyi's eyes turned back to Shi Yong, Shi Yong is not very tall, although the inside is beyond imagination, but he looks thin and small, this person is Xue Yong's brother-in-law, half a year ago he was still a person who could not stand up to the head of the city to guard the Yongguan Pass, but now he is crossing the mountains in the ice and snow to avoid the Jurchen military horses, and his appearance is even more embarrassed, his face and hands are full of frozen blood, his clothes are ragged, and his whole body stinks so much that he can't smell it, for other people, even if he is a veteran of the war, At this moment, I am afraid that I am also tired and weak, and I have to lose most of my life.

But this kid's back is still straight, and his eyes are full of energy, as if this thing is just a walk after dinner, this is in the cold, walking through more than 100 miles of mountain trails, and choosing difficult and dangerous roads to travel, not to mention when leaving Yingzhou, he has to cross the guard of layers of Jurchen military horses!

This kid is really not an idle person, there is another good man in the army! However, this is not the time to sigh at the level of Shi Yong's demonic sins, and Han Shizhong himself is at the level of demons, there are also Lu Junyi and Yang Zaixing under his command, I heard that there is also a Luda, who has a strong psychological tolerance for demons, and both of them paid attention to Shi Yong's words.

"How can I save it?" If it is only a few hundred people who can rescue them, then it is worth taking this risk, but a few hundred people are still too many, and if you want to talk about the scale of more than a hundred people, it is very likely that you will not alarm the Jurchen Tartar patrol and pass through this reckless mountains to the side of Yingzhou City!

Shi Yong wiped the snot that was frozen on his upper lip, and carefully stammered the plan he had come up with after thinking hard all the way.

"Now Yingzhou is there, the Jurchen Tartars who stayed behind are only a thousand people, and the rest are all killed and injured during the siege, there are few people and more horses, and the guards are not tight, Yingzhou is surrounded on three sides, one side is surrounded by mountains, and there is a mountain crack on the side of the mountain leading to the foot of the mountain. As long as you enter the mountain and lift your legs casually, the Jurchen Tartar will be thrown on the other side of the mountain. ”

Although Shi Yong was very nervous, his tone was an understatement of such a risky action, because in his opinion, there was really nothing difficult about it, going down the mountain, grabbing horses, running, it was impossible for the Jurchen Tartars to chase all the people, and they really wanted to gather the whole army, but they were afraid that everyone would run away.

A team comes up, what else is there to be afraid of? Entering the mountain is his Shi Yong's world, and the Jurchen Tatar than climbing the mountain, he can sleep first let them, others need five or six days to get out of the mountains of time, he Shi Yong only needs three or four days, and there is still time to dig a few rabbit holes or something, Han Shizhong and Lu Junyi glanced at each other, through more than a hundred miles of mountain roads and secretly walked, but also must be fast, otherwise when Allah arrives, Yingzhou City will be surrounded by overlaps, even if there are growth kings, wide-eyed kings, more than Wen kings, and the king of holding the country cannot get close to Yingzhou City.

If there is a mountain crack in Yingzhou City leading to the foot of the mountain, find a night when the wind blows and the snow and fog is filled, take the defenders to retreat, and suddenly attack a certain Jurchen camp to grab horses with elite warriors, gallop towards the mountains, and repel the Jurchen Tartars who will inevitably chase after them, and finally rush into the mountains and disappear into the night, if the retreat of Yingzhou City is true, then there is indeed a small possibility of success!

It's just that such a risky attack, you must choose the elite of the elite, and everyone must be brave and brave to fight, Lu Junyi Huo Ran got up: "I'll go!" Please give the Lord an order for me to choose the elite among the whole army! Yang Zaixing can laugh out of his asshole when he hears that he can walk like this, this guy usually gets into trouble, but this time it can come in handy! ”

Han Shizhong shook his head: "I will go through this myself." ”

Lu Junyi's eyes widened, he only felt that his ears were evil, and his reaction was almost to roar and desperately oppose: "General, you are the master of an army, how can you move lightly?" By all means, I'll take this trip! ”

Han Shizhong was in an independent account, pressing the sword and saying nothing, yes, now his own family is no longer the Han Shizhong who can rush to the front, for the overall situation of King Jin, King Jin, King Jin, but there is a slight possibility, I always have to die for you, this is what I owe you.

Lou Room went south, Zong Han did not arrive, the Jurchen Tartars under Yingzhou City were empty, and there was such a secret passage in Yingzhou City, with the opportunity, why should I regret my own family to go like this?

Lu Junyi's sincere eyes made Han Shizhong nod, Lu Junyi enjoys the prestige of Hebei's No. 1 gun, he can't fight Erer, he doesn't worry about this hundred miles back and forth, as long as he holds the big gun in his hand, he always has a bottom in his heart when he fights simply......

Lu Junyi is only worried that if the situation is dangerous, how can King Jin lead us to win this battle? When will you be able to come to the army in person and let us fight to the death under your orders? But now, you are already the king of Jin......

How do you get out of the way? How should this battle be fought?

Among the small forts outside the city fortress of Yingzhou, this kind of small military fort that plays the role of arch defense on the periphery of the city fortress occupies a very limited area, and it is enough to use a garrison of 100 people to garrison and fight inside, as for the counterattack, it is a matter of reserves, and more than 100 soldiers are a little tight in this small military fort, not to mention that at least half of the place is used to reserve grain and grass and guard the imperial ordnance.

Yin Keshu set up his own Chinese army tent here, occupying the largest barracks, which still seemed cramped, this barracks was a stone wall, a wall made of wood, and a thick thatched roof on top, the walls and roof were coated with thick mud, which was to prevent the attacking enemy from throwing rockets in.

After a big battle, this barracks has been dilapidated, there are still black blood marks on the walls and ground, and the cold wind blows in through the cracked mud mouth unobstructed, even if there is a fire pit in the hall of the house, it is still as cold as an ice cellar, but for these Jurchen hunters who grew up in the deep mountains and old forests like ice hell thousands of miles to the north, this chill is not a thing.

In the crackling hall of the fire pond, a group of Jurchen guards with silver skills were sitting around eating, because now the defenders of Yingzhou were empty, and the main force of Zonghan had not arrived, so they could be taken out to do large-scale looting, and there would be a lot less manpower to solve the supply of grain on the spot, and there was really nothing to grab in Yingzhou.

The food level of the Yinkeshu Department has dropped significantly, it has been changed to two meals a day, and it has begun to kill a large number of pack horses and mules, and these guard bowls are basically these boiled meat, because the siege consumes too many civilian auxiliary soldiers, and the manpower to collect firewood and grass is insufficient, and the meat of these horses and mules is also half-cooked, but the Jurchen hunters who are just starting to eat have not yet developed a taste that does not get tired of eating.

The grinning gnaws devoured the bloody food, the unpleasant chewing sound in the hall, coupled with the fishy smell of half-cooked food, the stench on the bodies of these Jurchen hunters with extremely poor hygiene habits was like hell on earth.

However, such simple and crude living conditions inspired the Jurchen warriors to spend a few months in Datong Mansion in Xijing, with good food and wine, and servants serving and dissipating a lot of sharp and fierce spirit.

Everyone sat and ate, their bodies were still covered with stinky leather armor, and even the chain armor scales had never been removed, and the blades were also placed within easy reach.

Yin Keshu is also like a subordinate son, sitting on the ground and sitting on the top, not even a piece of skin under his body, the bowl is also boiled horse meat, chewing sweetly, wearing armor on his body, the blade is on the side, and there is no slightly better treatment.

At this time, heavy footsteps were heard, and a stout Jurchen general strode in, it was Hu Lu, one of the descendants of Yin Keshu, this strong man of half-mock and half-Jurchen blood, and only under the command of a commander from a small tribe like Yin Keshu could climb to the high position of the lord of Mouke.

You must know that now the position of the Jurchen Mouke is very valuable, and the Meng'an above the Mouke has only begun to be formed, and there are still very few, and he simply climbed to this position by fighting and not wanting his life, and he was also brave to take this place at the beginning, Yin Keshu is generally valued by him, just let him concentrate on recuperating from his injuries, but Hu Lu's body seems to be iron, and the spear pierces the shoulder and back of the extremely deep heavy wound, but more than ten or twenty days of recuperation, after using the good injury medicine brought from Xijing Datong Mansion, not only can he get up, You can also ride a horse with one arm in armor.

Now the Yingzhou city fortress is empty, the manpower is tight, Yin Keshu is also happy to see that the fierce generals under his command can come in handy, a layer of leather armor inside the law, the scale armor on the outside has gone to the shoulder armor on the left, and the hanging arms are firmly fixed with wicker, and when he walks in from the outside, he brings a gust of cold wind, blowing the flames in the fire pond swaying.

He bowed to Yin Keshu, and said in a rough voice: "Yin Keshu, I came back from the inspection, and there was no movement." Within a radius of more than ten miles, there is not a single bird feather to be seen. ”

Yin Keshu nodded and beckoned, "Sit down and eat!" A guard got up, picked up a wooden bowl and opened the iron bucket, dug up the bowl of broth, which was already a little cold, and a few pieces of bloody horse meat floated in it, and handed it to Hu Lu when the soup was dripping, Hu Lu was not polite, and then squeezed others to sit down, buried his head and began to eat.

Yin Keshu wiped his mouth and stood up: "Let's go, go with a certain patrol camp!" A Jurchen Mouke raised his head and said: "Yin Keshu, the sky is about to get dark, seeing that the dark clouds are heavy again, I can't say that it will snow tonight, we Jurchen men are guarding the camp tent in this weather, too lazy to go out, who else can touch here, there is still a Lou room in front, you have worked hard these days, or I will come and go." ”

Yin Keshu waved his hand, but said briefly: "If you don't walk by yourself every day, a certain family is not steady." After saying a word, Yin Keshu strode out, and several guards also dropped their jobs and hurriedly followed, and several generals who stayed in the hall looked at each other and shook their heads.
