Chapter 387: The World Shakes

Sitting on the boat, recuperating from his injuries, Han Shizhong's eyes were a little trance-like.

The end of the war, it has been ten days.

These days, Han Shizhong has been recuperating from his injuries, and he has finally recovered.

Not long ago, in that bloody battle, Han Shizhong died nine times, stepped into the ghost gate several times, and walked out with difficulty, if the reinforcements were late for a while, he might die.

After that bloody battle, Han Shizhong suffered eighteen wounds on his body, but fortunately, he did not hurt the vital points, and his cultivation was almost good for a while. It's just a physical injury, which is easy to treat, but the psychological trauma will not heal at all.

That battle was so tragic.

Even Han Shizhong, who has been on the battlefield for a long time, feels that his mind is turbulent, his eyes are full of corpses, and he always thinks of the dead robe in his sleep.

used to drink together, go to the Qinglou together, gamble on dice together, but now everything is gone, only a corpse, separated by yin and yang, and never seen again.

Han Shizhong kept reminding himself that this is war, how can war not kill people, just thinking about it, his mood became heavier and heavier, and there was no trace of joy after the victory. It's just that he knows that everything has to continue to fight, and before the Jin Kingdom is destroyed, before the lost territory is recovered, it must be fought.

Instead of the generation of children and grandchildren fighting hard for the Jin Army, it is better for this generation to completely destroy the Jin Army and not leave the disaster to future generations.

"Qingzhou, I'm here!"

Thinking of the emperor, first the fierce battle in Liaodong, and then the plan to land in Shandong and attack Qingzhou, I couldn't help but smile bitterly, at this moment, the navy has been broken. It seems that he has no slackening in his ability to go deep behind enemy lines and continue fighting. It's time to take a break.

I just want to take a break, and I don't seem to have time. The Northern Expedition has not yet achieved full success.

In the emperor's plan, the conservative plan of this battle is to seize Huaibei and obtain a barrier for the south of the Yangtze River; The more radical one is to seize Shandong, in order to attack and disturb Youyun, and attack Liaodong. Lay the groundwork.

This battle has reached a fierce moment, and we can only continue to fight and have no rest.

…………

In Huai'an. Zong Han looked at the battle report in surprise, his heart full of anger.

"Damn! The entire Liaodong defense line was broken by the Song army again, and it was landed by the Song army at sea, and those beacon towers were all waste. There was no early warning effect at all. And the Zong Dynasty is really a waste. Zong Pan was also incompetent, and the 20,000-strong army was defeated by the Song army that landed! ”

"My Jurchen field battle has never been defeated, these wastes have been defeated!"

"You want me to withdraw my troops, but I just knocked down now, where is it so easy to withdraw troops!"

Looking at the letters from thousands of miles, Zong Han felt a huge pressure and a feeling of being out of breath.

When the Jin State had just been founded and was besieged by the Liao army. Zong Han was not afraid; When besieged by courtiers and in a difficult situation. Zong Han was not afraid. But now he was afraid, and he only felt that he was carrying a huge mountain on his back, which made him breathless.

At this time, Zong Han was a little nostalgic for Zong Wang.

Zong Wang is his sworn enemy, the two do not agree, and there are many disputes in the government.

However, the two of them have always been consistent in working together against the enemy, no matter how powerful the enemy is, under their joint attack, they are also annihilated and have won one victory after another.

It's just that now Zong Wang is dead, and he is the only one left to support the overall situation.

At this time, the confrontation of the Song army, whether it is combat power or the quality of the generals, is far more than the former Song army, the battle is becoming more and more difficult to fight, at this time Zong Han used various means, or can defeat the opposite Song army.

But at this time, there was a fire in the backyard.

Liaodong was beaten by the landed Song army, and the Jurchen pastures and villages were burned and looted. In the past, the Jin army was proud of playing grass valley, and the Song army also played it, and it played better than the Jin army.

After all, the cities of the Song Dynasty were tall and heavily defended, and it took a lot of effort to conquer them, and the Jin army was not good at attacking cities; However, Liaodong is a low city, and there are no cities in many areas, just a simple fence circle, and the Song army is famous for being good at attacking cities, and as a result, Liaodi suffered heavy losses.

The Jin army that stayed in Liaodong was defeated by the Song army in a row, and the entire Jin country was panicked, and one order after another came, which was an order to retreat, or to stabilize the situation with a part of the main force.

And Liaodong is the hinterland of the Jin Kingdom, and losing Hebei and Hedong is a trivial matter, but Liaodong can't be lost.

It's just that at this moment, it is the fight to the critical moment, where can I take a step back.

Isn't that adding to the chaos?

In a few days, Zong Han's hair turned a lot grayer, and he felt tired.

And at this moment, I got a secret report that the Song army was going to land in Shandong, attack Qingzhou, and cut off the retreat of the Jin army.

The war brought down this part, and he had to retreat.

"Retire!"

When these three words were spoken, Zong Han only felt dizzy, and his whole person was drained of energy.

…………

In Western Xia.

"What Jin army was defeated, and it was even beaten to the city of Huining!"

The Western Xia Emperor was stunned, and did not expect that the invincible Jin army would actually lose the battle.

There was also a fierce battle between the Western Xia and the Jin Kingdom, and the Western Xia was defeated, and from then on, the Xia and Jin formed an alliance with each other.

Once, Wanyan Lou proposed to sweep the northwest, destroy the Western Xia, and then join the northwest iron cavalry to strengthen the army, sweep Sichuan, so as to go down to the south of the Yangtze River and destroy the Song Dynasty. It's just that this plan was decisively rejected by the high-level people of Jinguo.

First, there are many deserts in Western Xia, people are poor and poor, there is no oil and water, where there is a southern invasion of the Song Dynasty to obtain huge profits; Second, the combat power of the Western Xia army was also relatively strong, and it was not easy to destroy it, and it cost a lot of troops; Third, the Western Xia Desert cannot be lost to the enemy because of grain, but will fall into a long logistics and transportation.

The three major factors of small profits, difficulty in conquest, and logistical hardship caused the Jin State's plan to defeat the Western Xia was quickly rejected.

At this time, the Jin State was busy invading the Song Dynasty in the south, and the Song Dynasty was busy resisting, so they ignored the Western Xia, and the Western Xia was able to live comfortably.

Between Song and Jin, before the duel was decided, Western Xia was in a state of absolute safety.

In the chaos, when the Jin Kingdom swept south and swept the Great Song Dynasty, the Western Xia, as the younger brother, also took the opportunity to pick up the cheap and invaded the northwest on a large scale, and thousands of miles of Song land were lost again.

In the eyes of Western Xia, the Song army confronted each other, kept fighting, and fought all the time, which was the most beneficial to Western Xia.

It's just that I never expected that Liaodong was attacked, and even defeated by the Song army, so that the Song army crisscrossed Liaodong without an opponent.

This made the Jin Kingdom, who had been sitting on the mountain watching the tiger fight, stunned.

"The battle of Song and Jin has changed, what should we do?" The Emperor of Western Xia, looking at the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, asked.

"Your Majesty, it's just a small defeat for the Jin Kingdom. Most of the main forces of the Jin army were in the front, resulting in the emptiness of the rear troops, which gave the Song army an opportunity to take advantage of, once the Jin army came to its senses, the Song Dynasty would be defeated at that time! ”

The difference in this statement, first Luoshui was defeated, and now it is a big defeat, which shows that the Jin country is no longer as strong as it used to be. Once the Northern Expedition of the Song Army succeeds and the old land of the Song Dynasty is restored, it will inevitably attack our Dynasty at that time. Your Majesty has to be cautious! ”

"What to be cautious about, the Song army has always had occasional small victories, and then a big defeat, throughout the Song Dynasty for a hundred years, the army is weak, this is just an occasional victory, insignificant."

"Our dynasty once invaded a thousand miles of land in the northwest, once the Song Dynasty won and brought a great victory, will our dynasty be attacked at that time?"

Soon, above the court, they were divided into two factions, and there was a violent quarrel.

And the Western Xia Emperor smiled bitterly, not knowing what to do for a while.

Although he is the emperor, the power in the court is controlled by some party nobles, and the court is full of infighting and party strife, and he is powerless.

…………

In the northwest, the elite of the Western Army is confronting the Jin Army Zongfu, Zongbi and others.

"Our dynasty has been defeated again, and Liaodong and other places have been constantly attacked and harassed by the Song army!" Sosuke put down the battle report and said leisurely.

"So what, far water can't quench your thirst!" Zong Bi said, "I'm still thinking about how to destroy the Song army and break the deadlock!" ”

Wanyan Lou said: "Zhang Jun, the commander of the Northwest Army, is arrogant and talented. This Song army first won in Luoshui and then in Liaodong, and Zhang Jun claimed to be Xie An's talent, how could he do nothing, he would inevitably underestimate the enemy, and our army's opportunity came. As long as Zhang Jun's troops are defeated, they can attack Hanzhong, Sichuan and other places; Taking a step back, it can also alleviate the unfavorable situation of Daikin! (To be continued......)
