Chapter 310: Xuzhou has changed

Lu Fu knew that he couldn't beat it, so after learning the news of the start of the Song army, he immediately used his brain to think about it, he pondered for a while and understood, this time the court seems to be not ready to cultivate the next Li Quan, they surrender, reward some money, seal a petty official, and then transfer to other places to retire! If you don't surrender, then there is only one result, that is, like Li Quan, you will be cut in two. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Lu Futong was unwilling to be a petty official in the Southern Song Dynasty in this life, and then he was idle all his life, and now he is so happy! A huge Xuzhou city, he alone has the final say, what he wants, what he wants, no one can control him, surrender is not good, after all, he still has the weight in hand, how to maximize the benefits, but how can he exchange his capital for greater benefits?

Lu Fu pondered in his heart, and finally thought of Jin Guo in a whim, didn't your Great Song Dynasty refuse to let me be the king of grass here? Then it's okay, Lao Tzu won't play with you, Xuzhou is the land of Jinguo, I dedicated Xuzhou to Jinguo, and it is expected that the people of Jinguo will reward Lao Tzu more, and don't you beat Li Quan? Lao Tzu surrendered to the Jin State and let the Jin soldiers enter the city, you are a bargaining envoy, can you still launch a national war with the Jin State without authorization?

After Lu Futong figured this out, he immediately summoned his cronies to discuss the matter, these guys had an idea with him, and they were unwilling to give up the wealth they had already received, although they were not very happy to surrender to the Jin Kingdom, but at the moment this was the only way.

So they hit it off, Lu Futong immediately sent an envoy to Guide Mansion to ask for a meeting with the officials of the Jin State, and the officials of the Jin State learned that Lu Futong wanted to surrender to Xuzhou, and the matter was very important, and he did not dare to be a little lazy, so he prepared a fast horse, and took Lu Futong's messenger to go straight to Bianliang City non-stop, asking to see the Lord of the Gold Mansion.

Wanyan Shouxu was surprised and delighted by this news, and now he also knew the news that the Southern Song Dynasty had sent troops to recruit Li Quanjun, but because the Mongols were too pressing, he couldn't take care of this matter, and he didn't want to have any dirty trouble with the Southern Song Dynasty court at this time, so he let it go and let the Song army attack Li Quan, and did not allow his own people to intervene in this matter.

But he didn't think that pies would fall from the sky, and Xuzhou, which was taken away by Li Quan, would take the initiative to ask for the surrender of their Jin country, so that a huge piece of land in Xuzhou would be returned to their Jin country's territory, this matter is really good, Wanyan Shouxu was stunned by this matter for a while, and immediately issued an order, Feng Lu Fu was also the Xuzhou Xuancheng envoy, this is the official of the four products, and the commander-in-chief of Xuzhou's military and political affairs.

And Wanyan Shouxu was not at ease, afraid that after the Song army killed Li Quan this time, he would attack Xuzhou again, for fear that this Lu Futong would not be able to stop the Song army, and Xuzhou, which had finally returned to their Jin State, was occupied by the Song army, so he urgently ordered the Guide Mansion to quickly mobilize troops and horses, stationed in Xuzhou, and assisted Lu Futong in defending Xuzhou.

So the officials of the Jin State of Guide hurriedly mobilized nearly 10,000 troops, and marched towards Xuzhou, intending to enter Xuzhou to defend against the attack of the Song army.

It's a pity that Lu Futong didn't tell the truth to Wanyan Shouxu, don't look at most people here in Xuzhou who knew that Li Quan had been defeated and died, but in this era when the news was not very well-informed, Wanyan Shouxu didn't know the news, and thought that Lu Futong didn't plan to do anything with Li Quan, so he surrendered to their Jin Kingdom! As a result, an accident happened.

Gao Huaiyuan didn't expect to jump over the wall in a hurry this time, and actually switched to Jinguo, he wanted to take advantage of this time to send troops to Xuzhou to subdue the people in Xuzhou, and he didn't take Lu Futong's 20,000 rabble in Xuzhou in his eyes, thinking that as long as he arrived at Xuzhou City, he would fight a few times, and Lu Futong in Xuzhou City should be scattered.

But when he heard the news from Xizuo, even though he was taken aback, Lu Futong actually surrendered to the Jin State, and also recruited a lot of Jin soldiers who were heading towards Xuzhou, so he became a little anxious.

He knows that Lu Futong's soldiers and horses are easy to deal with, but the Jin soldiers are not very easy to deal with, once the Jin soldiers enter Xuzhou, then this battle will never be a small battle, if the battle of Xuzhou becomes a protracted war, it will provoke more Jin troops, and in the end it is likely that the Song and Jin countries will tear their faces in advance to have an early duel, then it will be a big trouble.

Gao Huaiyuan doesn't want to fight a national war with Jin now, he needs Jin Guo to focus on resisting the Mongols now, buy more preparation time for the Southern Song Dynasty and him, and wait until the Jin State is destroyed, and compete with the Mongol army, if he fights with Jin now, I'm afraid that all the plans he made at the beginning will be completely disrupted.

Therefore, Gao Huaiyuan did not dare to delay any longer, even if he ordered the whole army, advance lightly, and use the fastest speed to surround Xuzhou City before the Jin soldiers entered Xuzhou, and solve the rebels in the city as soon as possible, only in this way can the Jin army continue to march towards Xuzhou.

The heavy responsibility of the vanguard army once again fell on Huang Yan's shoulders, and Gao Huaiyuan gathered all the cavalry in the general and handed them over to Huang Yan to lead, so that he must rush to the outside of Xuzhou City within one day, cut off the road from Xuzhou City to Guide Mansion, and prevent the Jin army from arriving in Xuzhou before the Song army arrived in Xuzhou.

Huang Yan immediately took the order and left, but Gao Huaiyuan suddenly called back Huang Yan and told him: Huang Yan didn't understand a little, and said: Gao Huaiyuan's face sank and said: Huang Yan was startled when he heard it, Gao Huaiyuan rarely used such a stern tone to get angry with him, and after thinking about it carefully, what Gao Huaiyuan said was right, now they are really not suitable to launch a full-scale war with the Jin State, otherwise the Jin State will not be able to stop the Mongols, and they will collapse with a hula, then it will be time for the Great Song Dynasty and the Mongols to face each other head-on!

After thinking about this, Huang Yan hurriedly waved his hand and said: Fortunately, Gao Huaiyuan received the news in time, if it was a day or two late, the matter would be really troublesome, after he arranged Huang Yan's affairs, he immediately led the troops to start a forced march in the direction of Xuzhou, and no longer cared about the hearts of the local people, all the baggage and other things left a soldier and horse escort, and the main force only carried the necessary weapons and armor and two days of food to advance at full speed.

Under normal circumstances, the speed of the infantry army is generally not about twenty or thirty miles a day when fully armed, but this time Gao Huaiyuan is really anxious, after ordering the forced march, the whole army no longer stops to eat, all problems are solved in the march, and at the end of the day, it actually walked out of more than sixty miles, and many soldiers in the army were almost out of breath, after all, everyone is dressed in armor, plus weapons, food, drinking water and other things, it is dozens of catties down, after running all day, almost people are scattered, But fortunately, most of these soldiers are young and strong people, if they are replaced by other Song soldiers, a group of old, weak, sick and disabled, even if they can't run for thirty miles, they will be tired and exhausted.

When it was already dark, Hua Yue stopped Gao Huaiyuan and persuaded: Gao Huaiyuan frowned and looked at the sky, and then looked at the tired and crooked soldiers, and asked: A soldier from a local background was called out to answer Gao Huaiyuan's question: Gao Huaiyuan immediately ordered: All the soldiers immediately fell to the side of the road as if they had been amnestied, lying on the ground panting, and each felt as if his heart was about to jump out of his mouth.

Gao Huaiyuan shook his head secretly, and said in his heart, how far has he gone! They are all tired of this virtue, and if they are against the Mongolian iron cavalry in the future, with this speed alone, where is enough for the Mongolian cavalry to cut it! It seems that in the future, in this regard, it is necessary to strengthen training!

Although Gao Huaiyuan was not very satisfied, but for Lu Futong, it scared him half to death, he never thought that the Song army, which was still walking slowly a few days ago, suddenly became like a drug, and ran to Xuzhou City in one day, and the vanguard cavalry had already arrived in Xuzhou, bypassing Xuzhou City, and directly cut off the road from Xuzhou to Guide Mansion.

This time Lu Futong can panic, he took refuge in the Jin country, the ability to do it as a last resort, now most of the soldiers in the city heard the news, has begun to stir up below, he expected the Jin army to arrive in Xuzhou as soon as possible, with the addition of the Jin soldiers, he can have the capital to compete with the Song army, but the speed of the Jin army really did not dare to compliment him, now three days have passed, I heard that they have just left in Guide Mansion, it will take at least five days to get here, the angry Lu Futong is scolding the Jin army for moving too slowly, but scolding and scolding, he couldn't do anything about it.
