Regarding Yue Fei's request to borrow grain and soldiers, Liu Guangshi scoffed.

The emperor ordered me not to move, let alone you, a hairy child who is neither big nor small.

It's just that Liu Guangshi is old and sophisticated, and he responded to Yue Fei's request in another way:

Liu Guangshi's approach was that from September 3 to September 15, he successively gave Emperor Gaozong three twists and turns, saying that the troops he sent killed many Jin soldiers on the north bank of the Yangtze River, but he did not see any troops sent by Yue Fei.

None of these three passages are true, and they were all later included in the "Biography of the Family of Liu Gong, the King of Dun (Yinhui)". In this regard, Yue Ke also made a special refutation in the "Eguo Jin Tuocui Edition" Volume 25 "Cheng Chu Identification".

Liu Guangshi's brazenness has reached the point of reaching the peak

The appearance of the Yue family army in the southwest gave Wan Yanchang a lot of pressure. On the one hand, he divided his troops to the south and ordered the generals not to let this team approach the city of Chuzhou under any circumstances; On the other hand, the attack on the city of Chuzhou was accelerated.

In mid-September, Wanyanchang mobilized a large number of siege equipment, such as trebuchets, ladder trucks, partial bridges, siege vehicles, etc., thousands of ladders at the same time, ten thousand troops forged ahead, and attacked Chuzhou from the east city.

After many wars of invasion of the Song Dynasty, the Jin soldiers have studied the use of siege equipment more and more.

Especially after the fall of Bianliang City, the Jin soldiers dismantled and robbed a large number of military equipment, after some imitation and improvement, the Jin soldiers' siege equipment became more and more sophisticated, and the threat to the city of the Song Dynasty became more and more great.

This time, the Jin people listed more than 100 stone throwing machines under the city, and the most powerful seven-tip cannon could throw fifty or sixty catties of boulders. The Star Cannon can fire dozens of stones at once. The golden man commanded with a trumpet. Launched at the same time. Flying stones fell into the city of Chuzhou like rain.

As usual, Zhao Li led his troops to resist in the city, and used pine branch oil to burn the golden soldiers' ladders on the city wall to prevent the golden soldiers from climbing to the top of the city.

This trick used to be very good against Jin Bing, but this time something unexpected happened.

In September, the city of Chuzhou suddenly turned to the west wind, and the result of the change of wind direction was the "reverse of fire", the ladder of the golden soldiers could not be burned, and a large number of golden soldiers poured up to the city

Zhao Li sighed: "How can the heavens not help it." The words did not fall. Suddenly, a stone cannon flew from the front, hitting it in the head, Zhao Li screamed, turned over and fell to the ground. Left and right hurriedly stepped forward to rescue him

Zhao Li's mouth and nose were seriously deformed, his eyes were protruding, his seven orifices were bleeding, his face was terrifying, and he still muttered to himself with difficulty: "I can no longer kill enemies for the country!" "Not a few, exhausted, only thirty-seven years old.

this day. It was September 16 of the fourth year of Jianyan.

Although the Jin Bing's offensive was finally broken down, Zhao Li died. Chuzhou has no backbone, and the various conditions in Chuzhou City have reached a desperate point, and on September 29, Chuzhou City was broken

Yes, the Jin soldiers rushed into the city of Chuzhou. However, according to the deployment of Zhao Li before his death, the soldiers and civilians of Chuzhou set up brick barricades at each alley to help the wounded in street battles, causing the enemy to pay the price of thousands of casualties.

For a time, there was a fire in the city of Chuzhou, and some women even grabbed Jin Bing and drowned in the river together. Some militia leaders, known as the "thousand-man enemy", such as Wan Wu, Shi Qi, Wei Heng, and others, bravely broke through the siege.

In the end, although the Jin soldiers occupied the city of Chuzhou, they also paid a heavy price of several thousand people.

Afterwards, Emperor Gaozong commented: "Standing and sticking to the lonely city, although the ancient name will not be surpassed." ”

Since the Jin soldiers invaded the Song Dynasty in the south, most of the cities were conquered without attack, surrendered without a fight, or after a little battle, the losses of the Jin soldiers were not large, only a few cities were exceptions.

Among these few exceptions, during the Jingkang period, Taiyuan was the first to be promoted, and during the Jianyan period, there was Chuzhou in the east and Shaanzhou in the west, and the most heroic and tragic defense battles were carried out successively.

The victims of these state capitals are all "loyal to the sun and the moon, and the heroic spirit is in the world, although the ambition of the clouds is incomprehensible, the solid name is immortal", showing the national integrity of preferring to die and unyielding

The news of the fall of Chuzhou spread quickly, and Yue Fei knew that there was no point in advancing to Chuzhou again, so he commanded his troops to retreat in the direction of Taizhou.

After Yan Chang hated Yue Fei to the core, he was willing to let it go, so he gathered all the Jin soldiers on the north bank of the Yangtze River, known as the 200,000 army, first annihilated Li Yanxian's troops in Beishen Town, and then expelled Zhang Rong's army from Yutan Lake, and finally summoned all the men and horses to Taizhou to find Yue Fei to settle accounts.

When the imperial court received the news that the Jin soldiers were going to capture Taizhou, they hurriedly sent an order to Liu Guangshi, asking him to send troops to support, and at the same time issued an edict to inform Yue Fei: "Taizhou can be fought and defended; If it is not possible, and protect the people on the nearby sandbar, and wait for the cover. ”

Liu Guangshi continued to follow his own way of doing things, pretending to be deaf and dumb, and refusing to act.

Although Liu Guangshi's name was among the four major generals of Zhongxing in the Southern Song Dynasty, it was only because of the large number of his army and the potential threat to the Jin. In fact, Liu Guangshi's ability to command operations can only be ranked last.

Ming Dynasty scholar Huang Daozhou made "Biography of Famous Generals", which selected more than 170 generals from the Western Zhou Dynasty to the Ming Dynasty as biographies, including two famous generals of the Song Dynasty, including a kind of Shidao, Zong Ze, Yue Fei, Han Shizhong, Zhang Jun, Liu Jian, Wu Jue, Wu Ling, Li Xianzhong, Yang Yizhong, Wang De, Wang Yan, etc., a total of 34 people, and Wang De is still Liu Guangshi's subordinate, but there is no name of Liu Guangshi on it.

In other words, Huang Daozhou looked down on him at all, and he was stunned that he was not included. Amusing! Alas!

In Taizhou in September, autumn has begun to fall, and the weather has become cooler.

Taizhou is located in the plain area, the city wall is low, there is no danger to defend, there have been several times the looting of the gold soldiers, so there is no silver money in the city, and there is also a lack of silk silk.

In the evening, a group of golden soldiers suddenly appeared outside Taizhou, surrounding Taizhou to look carefully and observe.

Obviously, this is a scout of a group of golden soldiers.

Ah Zhuhei and Rizhen are both centurions, and they are also the leaders of this group of golden scouts. The two of them were very puzzled, such a dilapidated city still needs to use two hundred scout teams to scout before the battle?

Soon. Their doubts were answered.

When Ah Zhu Hei and Li really wanted to collect their troops and return to the camp. Suddenly discovered. I was surrounded.

But Jin Bing wasn't worried at all.

This is a suburban plain, what can stop the advance of the elite scout cavalry of the Jin Kingdom? So without thinking, Ah Zhuhei and Li Zhen turned around and rushed to the north, although there was already a group of Song soldiers' cavalry waiting.

"There are cavalry in the Song Dynasty, and the Song people can also ride horses?" While thinking about this joke, Ah Zhuhei picked up the mace in his hand and rode his horse towards the Song army.

Li Zhen rushed towards Song Jun at the same speed, but his thoughts were completely different from Ah Zhuhei's. Rizhen's idea was: "Come out and find out the military situation." You can also cut off a few Song Jun's heads by the way and go back to receive merit, which is good. ”

Song Jun, who came out to face Ah Zhuhei, was a young man, with red lips and white teeth, a handsome appearance, and a watery appearance that was even more beautiful than the eldest girl.

Ah Zhuhai was happy when he saw it. I thought that there was really no one in the Song Dynasty, or how to send a little boy to fight, and waste a good skin in vain.

Just as Ah Zhuhei was thinking wildly, the little boy raised the hammer gun in his hand and slowly stabbed forward.

The little boy's movements were not fast, so Ah Zhuhei could see clearly. The hammer gun in the boy's hand is unusual and has a special shape: the head and end of the large gun are two dark gold copper hammers. "Its cone-shaped oval and sharp head is different from the so-called copper hammer today."

This big gun is the famous "two iron mallets", also known as the "Thunder Drum Urn Golden Hammer", weighing 80 catties, and is the weapon used by Yue Fei's eldest son Yue Yun.

Yue Yun looks like his mother, he is thin and small, and when he matches the long weapon of "Two Iron Mallets", it gives people a very unreal feeling.

At first glance, Ah Zhuhei decided that this gun was made of light cork, otherwise a little boy could use it, so Ah Zhuhei didn't look at what moves Yue Yun used, and hit him with a mace.

There was a loud bang of "oh", deafening, and the scene of the little boy's brains splashing in Ah Zhuhei's imagination did not appear, but his mace seemed to be smashed into the copper wall, and a strong rebound came back, and Ah Zhuhei's eyes were black, and he was fainted alive.

This battle was Yue Yun's first battle, and Yue Yun was only twelve years old this year.

After that, it took four years for Yue Yun to get the nickname of "Winning Official" in the military camp, which means that every battle must be won and never defeated.

It is recorded in "The Remains of the Sons": "Yun, twelve, from Zhang Xianzhan, generous and loyal, quite fatherly

Ah Zhuhei and Li Zhen were easily taken down by Zhang Xian and Yue Yun, and none of the two hundred Jin Bing scouts escaped.

In the Taizhou military camp, Yue Fei looked at Ah Zhuhei and Li Zhen at the bottom of the stairs, and without saying a word, he ordered someone to beat them to forty kills first, and then interrogate them in detail. It was learned that the chief of Pusuuri, General Xiao Jin Taiyi, led 5,000 forward troops, had set up camp thirty miles away from the city and attacked Taizhou at any time.

After killing all these Jin scouts, Yue Fei personally led a thousand elite cavalry to attack the Jin camp at night.

On this night, the Yuejia army "killed a lot of prisoners", and the forward battalion of the Jin soldiers retreated.

On the second day of the first month of October, Wan Yanchang's golden wolf warrior Bai Dali had arrived from the direction of Chengzhou, and joined forces with the remnants of the chief of Pusuli and the remnants of Taiyi to attack Taizhou City.

In this battle, the Jin people were only killed by a round of Yue's army, and they were in chaos, throwing away their armor and fleeing, "all guns, knives, gold, drums, and banners are left behind."

The main general of the golden soldiers, the golden wolf warrior, was captured alive by Yue Fei in front of the battle.

The chief of Pusuri was full of resentment, but he had no choice but to retreat another thirty miles in embarrassment, gather his army, and prepare to attack, and at the same time send people to Wanyanchang for help, ready to strike a swift blow at Taizhou

Although the forward troops of the Jin soldiers were easily repulsed, the situation in Taizhou was not eased, but became more and more tense. Because the main force of the Jin soldiers is constantly gathering and advancing in the direction of Taizhou.
