"This person appeared at the Usu side in the sixth year of Jeonghwo, and he was already masked with a cloth at that time, and there is a theory among the Kim people that he came from Jeju Island. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Yue Fei's words made Zhou Quan's brows furrow.

In the sixth year of Jeonghoa, Gokookseong Fortress on Jeju Island had already begun to take shape, but at that time, there were many people and the household registration system had not yet been perfected, so it was difficult to determine who this person was based on this clue alone.

"Judging from some of the methods of Wushu, it does seem that you have learned some fur in Jeju Island, Pengju, this matter does not need to involve you too much energy, come back from Japan, hand it over to others, and then you will focus your energy mainly on military training, I expected...... Probably not long before peace. ”

Yue Fei was immediately overjoyed: "Who to hit?" ”

"Whoever is not well-behaved, will be beaten." Zhou Quan smiled.

It was not only Yue Fei who got the order, Ye Chu, Han Shizhong, and Song Xingfeng all got this order.

This is a rare thing, almost all the senior generals of the escort army are mobilized, and only a very small number of them are not assigned because they are in charge of the purge work on the Luzon side, or the deterrence work of Japan and Goryeo.

The Great Song Dynasty was also preparing for war, and the call for the destruction of Liao in May was rising, and Tong Guan was there, and the envoys of the Jin people through the sea route came and went frequently.

At the beginning of April, the Great Song Dynasty gathered more than 200,000 troops and gathered in Baozhou again, and the military discipline of these soldiers was not good, which brought a lot of trouble to Zhao Mingcheng, who was the governor of Baozhou.

On April 10, Tong Guan swore to march north, but the Liao did not block it head-on, but only ordered a small number of rangers to harass and monitor, and took the initiative to shrink the defensive line.

This time, Tong Guan learned a lesson, the army marched very slowly, only twenty miles a day, for the supply of grain, he guarded with fine horses, and did not give the Liao people a chance. Strictly speaking, Tong Guan still knew the soldiers, so although the Liao people tentatively attacked twice, they could only withdraw their troops and retreat when the gains outweighed the losses.

Tong Guan did not pursue, still according to the fixed speed of twenty miles a day, but the envoy sent to the Beijing division was very diligent, and the king of Sancha went back to boast that he would recover some lost territory today, and kill a number of Liao captives tomorrow, if the results of the battle mentioned in his military report were summed up, the lost territory recovered was as big as three Yanyun, and the Liao people killed were more than all the troops at the peak of the Liao State.

He was waiting, waiting for the action of the golden man.

In mid-April, the Jin people assembled in Jinzhou and began to march towards Yuguan.

On the second day of the fifth month, the Jin people and Liao confronted each other at Yuguan, and the Jin people attacked tentatively, but the Liao could not hold out, so that the Jin people returned in vain.

But by the fifth day of the fifth month of May, the artillery of the Jin people arrived at the front.

The Jin people have captured the cannons of the Liao State, and have looted a lot of skilled craftsmen from Goryeo, Liao and Japan, almost at the same time that the Liao State imitated the cannons, the Wushu people also copied the cannons, and because of the barbaric system of the Jin State, there is no need to worry about the cost at all, so the number of cannons is extremely fast.

Yuguan Chengtou, after more than half a year of transformation, also has artillery, a few days ago defeated the Jin attack, these forts are indispensable. But when the Jin artillery team came up, the situation reversed, even if Liao had the advantage of geographical advantage, but in the face of the Jin people's more artillery, it was still suppressed.

If Zhou Quan was there, he would definitely laugh at the level of the Liao and Jin artillery, not only the firing range was short, the rate of fire was slow, the artillery was not reliable, and the borehole would explode from time to time. However, neither Jin nor Liao took human life seriously, and under repeated attacks day and night, in just one day, Liao's artillery array at Yuguan was flattened, and there were no more artillery available, and the Jin people's artillery also lost a quarter of its artillery due to various reasons such as exploding its bore -- not a single one of them was destroyed because it was hit by enemy shelling.

The rest is simple.

Under the bombardment of the remaining artillery, even if the Jin people did not understand ballistics, measurement and calculation, it was enough to blast Yuguan open on the third day.

When the Jin people's infantry rushed to the juncture that had become a ruined wall, the Liao people were no longer visible in this Guancheng, which had the first pass in the world in later generations, and in the face of this situation, the Liao people really couldn't hold on.

Coughing softly, he rode through the ruins.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty!"

When his horse passed by a group of officials, one of them suddenly bowed down and shouted, and Ah Guda looked sideways, and it was a Han official who spoke.

Like Wushu, Aguta has always been extremely tolerant of traitors who have taken refuge in him. So he stopped his horse and asked with a smile, "What is the joy of it?" ”

"Your Majesty has artillery weapons, and the southern country will be owned by Your Majesty!" The Han official said with a smile on his face: "In the past, the Central Plains was able to resist the northern country, which was nothing more than that the northern army was good at riding and shooting field warfare and was not good at attacking cities, but now there are artillery weapons, and the danger of the city walls is like dung. ”

He said it in Liao, and Ah Gudi inquired very clearly, and only felt that this person was very reasonable.

Aguta has studied the history of the Song people, and the Song people have repeatedly lost in the great wars with Liao, and at most they have a sporadic advantage in small-scale conflicts on the border. However, Liao has never been able to destroy the Song Dynasty, even if he once drank on the banks of the Yellow River, he had to return to the army in the end, and the key reason is that the Han people like to build city walls.

The tall walls were a formidable defensive weapon for the nomads. But now that there is artillery, the city wall no longer needs to be filled with human lives, and the greatest advantage of the farming people in the Central Plains is gone.

"Thou art a man who is quite knowledgeable, and he is not afraid to be by my side for advisers." A bone struck a horsewhip in one fell swoop.

"The general of the minister's left prison guard, Li Shikui, is also!" The Han official was overjoyed, bowed to the ground, kowtowed again and again, and almost came to lick the horse's hooves, Ah Guda laughed, feeling refreshed, and his body, which was originally faintly uncomfortable, was a little better at this time.

Li Shikui got Ah Guta's permission, so he followed Ah Guta's side, but his previous servile appearance made the Jin people feel a little shameless, so no one paid attention to him. But he didn't know it, he still looked forward to himself, especially when he saw the Han and Liao officials who had defected to the Jin people like him, he straightened his chest, probably because he felt that he was superior to them.

It's just that the situation soon happened, Jin Ren rode a horse, although he had a horse before, but when he greeted Akuta, he was on foot, so Aguda rode forward with his guards and attendants, but he only trotted with his official robe to follow, and it didn't hurt to travel a short distance, but Aguda was going to march into Yanjing, could he still run all the way to Yanjing?

The news of the loss of Yuguan caused chaos in Yanjing City, and the Liao State finally came to the last moment, and everyone knew that they were desperate. Seeing this situation, Xiao Gan and Yelu Dashi's superficial close cooperation could not be maintained, so he did not say a word and led his troops west. And after Yelu Dashi learned the news, he did not hesitate, abandoned Yeluchun's widow Xiao Puxiannu, and only took his cronies to Wuqing.

Xiao Gan fled into the mountains, preparing to continue westward to the land west of the river, while Yelu Dashi crossed the sea by boat in Wuqing and went to Goryeo, where he traveled to Japan, after all, the Liao State still had a sphere of influence there, which was run by Yelu Dashi himself, and as long as he got there, Yelu Dashi believed that he could still make a difference.

In desperation, Xiao Puxian could only take a few remaining main battle factions to the south, just in time to meet Tong Guan's army. Xiao Puxian's original intention was to vote for the Song Dynasty, after all, the Song people were much easier to deal with than the barbaric Jin people. But at this time, Tong Guan was not allowed to surrender, and the Liao people who were in a hurry had to fight with Tong Guan again, and then ......

Tong Guan is defeated again!

"Tong Guan defeated again?"

When the news reached Zhou Quan, Zhou Quan couldn't believe it, he could be defeated in this situation, how incompetent was Tong Guan?

"Tong Guan didn't make any mistakes in command, but the officers and men were really unbearable." In order to facilitate him to start a family, Zhou Quan no longer arranged things for him to run around, and he is now leading the staff of the Guard Army, and the main job is to analyze the military situation in various places, discuss various plans with some staff officers of the General Staff, and sum up lessons and lessons.

He was born in the military for many years, and he was very familiar with the officers and soldiers and the escort army, so he shook his head again and again when he talked about it.

Although the combat strength of the official army has declined rapidly compared with when he joined the army, it is still unexpected for him to reach this point. If it is said that Tong Guan's defeat before, there is also the reason for the conceit of the arrogant soldiers, this time Tong Guan learned a lesson, did not advance again, and fought steadily step by step, but in the face of more than 20,000 Liao people, in the case of using artillery, it was still a fiasco.

"Among the entire officers and soldiers, only the Chang Shengjun who was born in the resentful army was still normal, and made some resistance, so that the Liao people did not win completely, and Tong Guan retreated to Baozhou again, but the defeat in this battle also completely shattered Tong Guan's idea of seizing Yanjing before the Jin people."

Wu Yang's analysis was still focused on the Song army, and as for the Liao who had won a tactical victory, he didn't mention it at all.

One or two tactical victories will not change the strategic despair at all, and it can even be said that it is precisely because of this victory of the Liao army that they will perish faster. Originally, it was still a choice for them to vote for the Song Dynasty, but now that this road is completely cut off, the Liao army in despair will soon fall apart.

"Will the Jin people date Yanjing?" After pondering for a while, Zhou Quan asked.

"Yes, it is reported that the Jin Emperor Ah Guda seems to be unwell, and after he entered Yanjing, he ordered to loot the population and wealth of various places, and move all of them to the north of the Great Wall. I expected that the Jin people would hand over an empty Yanyun to the Great Song Dynasty, but they would not hand over important places such as Yuguan and Juyong Pass, but would firmly control them in their hands. In this way, if they want to come again, they can make a comeback at any time, but the Great Song Dynasty, all they get are empty cities, if they want to hold these empty cities, they must send a large army, there is no population nearby, they can't eat nearby, they can only be transported from the rear for a long distance, which will be a heavy burden for the Great Song Dynasty. In addition, it is impossible for Tong Guan to obtain Yan Yun from the Jin people in vain, and the cost of ransom Yan must also be a huge expense. ”

Zhou Quan sneered twice, the court thought that he had picked up a bargain, but in the end, he picked up a heavy burden!

But those Yanyun people who left their hometowns are a little pitiful, the Jin people are not Zhou Quan, Zhou Quan was full of everything when he moved people, and he made sufficient preparations along the way. If the Jin people force them to migrate, I am afraid that one-third to one-half of them will fall on the way! (To be continued.) )
