The north wind was blowing, and on top of the Yingzhou city fortress, Yue Fei stood on the highest stone barrier on the city wall, pressing his sword, and silently looked at the white mountains and rivers around him.

The wind swept through the city and outside, blowing his robes high behind him.

On the city wall, the soldiers of Jinyang patrolled silently, in a piece of silver and white, the clothes and armor of these soldiers looked extremely cold, inside and outside the city wall, I don't know how, there was a kind of depression that arose.

Looking down from the condescending Yingzhou Guan Castle Wall, the large and small military walled city fortresses have formed a perfect defense system, and the most important road from the northeast into the east of the river is tightly blocked.

This huge reorganization defense project was all done before the snow fell, Yue Fei urged his subordinates, plus a large number of people, to work hard, and at this moment, it was already a rough scale, and the roadside defense system in Hedong was almost completely open and undefended as it had been in the past few decades.

However, this reorganized defense system did not come in handy this time.

The mountain passage overlooked by the defensive system formed by this continuous fortress, and occasionally a group of men and horses could be seen coming from the south or north, and they could pass freely and unhindered.

Although when passing through this section of the passage controlled by the Yingzhou City Fortress, no matter what the scale of the people and horses is, they dare not have the slightest arrogance, and they even put away their swords, and pass through here quickly, not daring to delay a little.

Moreover, the city of Yingzhou is now stationed in thousands of soldiers, and there is no support for the left and right states and counties, which can be called a lone army, and there is no one to rush to the left of Yingzhou within nearly 30 miles, after all, Huanzhou and Shuozhou still have to leave people to guard. Otherwise, the remnants of the former Liao have ambitions, it will outweigh the losses, here, occasionally, but there is a team of people and horses from Yingzhou to patrol around, and the teams are hurriedly avoiding, and those who can't avoid it quickly dismount and wait for the Jinyang army to pass up and down. Couldn't be more honest and respectful.

When the Jurchen soldiers and horses arrived here, there were already more than 10,000 people, but the real elites among them were only hundreds, and the others were just unarmed, and even refugees with wooden sticks were coerced to come, and it was already possible to kill the Jurchen soldiers and horses, but Yue Fei did not give an order, and for the lower-level generals, he actually felt that it was a matter of indifference.

Those who came from the Western Army. I feel even more commonplace, in which year did the Western Army not report dozens of times to join the army? Once there is news of entering the army, the military horses along the border will have to pay for food, and the Shaanxi Zhulu transfer envoy will have to respond, if there is an unfortunate Wenchen Zhizhou Zhizhou County along the border military state, maybe he will have to report a few defeats, claiming to have lost one or two military villages, so that the boss knows that this Wenchen is not suitable for the land, and quickly transferred away.

If the Jinyang Army wants to survive, the story of the Si Xijun is a matter of course.

For the soldiers of the Jinyang Army who were born in the north. It is only known that there is General Yue, and there is General Xiao Yang, who is the most popular in the army. Forcing them to be loyal to others, after all, until now, it is Yang Ling who is trying his best to find a way to live for them, it is really unrealistic to think about letting other scholars and doctors take charge of the army, the north is in chaos early, and the people who support the army have their own weights. It's even more ordinary to the point that it can't be more ordinary, and the Jinyang Army is still tied up.

Rao is heart thought that the thousands of military horses of the Jinyang Army in Yingzhou are still a little depressed.

Our status in the Jinyang Army is based on fighting. Now they are using these means to consolidate themselves, when will this day be? If it turned out to be completely justified and full of grief and indignation at the unfair methods of the imperial court, then now when everyone talks about it in private, they always feel that it is not a taste.

The main reason is because of Yue Fei.

If there was no Yue Fei, the main general, the thousands of people of the Jinyang Army, I am afraid that the atmosphere would not be so gloomy, everyone felt that it was not a taste, no matter which general, they did not expect that Yang Ling would lead them to rebel, it was nothing more than to protect the Jinyang Army.

Will be the courage of the army, for the heart of the army, since Yue Fei avoided and shrunk the whole army into the defense system of Yingzhou City, Yue Fei was surprisingly silent, often within a day, not a sentence day after day, all the same.

If the main general is like this, how can the atmosphere of the whole army be so high?

All the generals were tormented by this atmosphere, and they couldn't help but murmur in their hearts: "Straight lady thief, after General Xiao Yang retains our status as a military horse, he will take us to fight and kill the Tartars as usual!" If that's the case, your heart will be straight, and it's better than being so hard day after day! Anyway, we are now famous and rich, and we will take it immediately, and what will happen in the future, we still rely on fighting immediately! Prisoners, if the imperial court didn't have to toss our Jinyang army, and planned to toss and pull it down, why would it be like this? We've all gone to this northernmost place to guard the border, and we won't let us go! If these ministers who read and read books don't trouble us soldiers, will they die? ”

The generals complained and sent it, and that's it, day by day or normal days, anyway, everyone is acting according to orders, the first few months have been hard, everyone has stayed up dark and thin, and they can't sleep steadily, now in the city, the wind can't blow, the snow can't cover, the city is rich in food, and it's not hungry.

Except for Yue Fei......

These days, Yue Fei quickly became haggard, and the childishness of a young man that could still be seen in him was now polished cleanly, standing on the city wall with his sword standing tall every day, as thin and hard as a rock in the north.

Inner torment, no day or ......

To the surprise of Yang Ling, Han Shizhong and others who knew Yue Fei well, this torment was not only because of this action, which violated Yue Fei's loyal nature and his loyalty to this court, although there were tortures elsewhere, but it was not all.

What made Yue Fei most painful was the development of events after the incident in the eastern border of the river.

At the beginning, there were only hundreds of Jurchens at most, and in the blink of an eye, the surrounding counties of Yingzhou were stirred up, and Yangqu County was even more taken down with a rush, and no one dared to resist the slightest bit of the state and county forts, even if there were still some remnants of the forbidden army stationed there, they all lost the place where they should be guarded, and those who dragged their families and mouths ran towards the south.

If it weren't for the preparation in advance, if it weren't for the Jinyang army staring at it here, the prefecture and county here would have been all beaten down by these hundreds of Jurchens, and along the way, deep into the Yanmen Pass, Taiyuan Mansion, and the entire Hedong!
