Outside the ruins of Yingzhou City, there is already a leather tent that is connected to the sky. Military horses of all colors, banners, and costumes are camping, patrolling, or recuperating in the camp. For a while, in the sight, there were no less than 10,000 or 20,000 people in the Jurchen headquarters alone. Each Mouke recognized the flag, danced in the sun, and showed the fierce spirit of the army.

In addition to these money rat tails, the sturdy and sturdy Jurchen headquarters elite. There are also all kinds of Jurchen tribes under the rule of auxiliary troops. The most are the thirty Tatars surnamed Mo Nan recruited from the grassland, wearing leather robes and unkempt hair. Riding a short, stamina mount with a horned bow. With the tribe as the settlement in the army, they attached themselves to the Jurchen military tent and set up their own scattered so-called camps. In the battalion, there are also herds of sheep and horses, that is, the military rations of these auxiliary soldiers, the sheep neighing and the horses are singing, and they live together with people, and they smell like a dung heap.

The Jurchen Western Route Army was no better than the Eastern Route Army, and the Eastern Route Army occupied the heart of the Liao people, and the scale of the tribal auxiliary army recruited was larger. It is mainly composed of Bohai people, supplemented by Goryeo, Xi people, and even a small number of Khitan and Han armies. This made the Jurchen Eastern Route Army larger than the Western Route Army, and it had considerable baggage and offensive weapons. In addition to field battles, the Eastern Route Army also had considerable strength to attack fortified cities.

As for the Jurchen Western Route Army, the recruited tribal auxiliary troops could only be mainly from the tribes of the predecessor of the Mongol Empire on the steppe, especially the Mongol tribes in southern Mo. These auxiliary armies that grew up on horseback certainly strengthened the field combat ability of Zong Han's subordinates, but the ability to build a strong village and attack the city was still quite lacking.

In addition to these military horses that are the core of the battle, there are also more auxiliary armies such as cangtou bullet press. They were in groups either cutting wood and collecting wood, or they were leading herds of horses to drink water and take care of them. They also did all the hard labor in the camp. There is no strict order between these bullets. When he was in battle, he was used as cannon fodder, and he was hard labor on weekdays. There is not much food to eat but to plunder. This time, the Jurchen Western Route Army was forcibly dispatched at the end of winter, and the scale was very large, and the grain was not sufficient. When they arrived in Yingzhou, there was nothing to plunder, and these cangtou bullets pressed the dwellings, and dozens or hundreds of corpses would be carried out every day.

Those who have followed the Jurchen army for a long time and have some qualifications are better. The most bitter is the Han people forcibly recruited in the Datong Mansion in Xijing, who are the lowest level of the Jurchen oppression system, and the corpses will be released every day. Most of them are Han people who have been in the clouds for more than a hundred years, and have been ridden by generations of alien masters.

As for the Jurchens, how many Han people died, they would not blink their eyes.

It's so chaotic and noisy. Stinky camp. It has already filled the open space near the left side of Yingzhou City. From the north, there is a steady stream of military horses every day. When I arrived here, I saw the ruins of the city fortress burned to the ground, and the scene of the people fighting for food every day. Those who have a little experience in marching and fighting know that such a large army must not be delayed in this death-like Yingzhou, and must go south as soon as possible!

On the Longshou Village, a pure black wool standing on behalf of Zong Han has been erected. Hundreds of thousands of Zonghan personally led the Meng'an Jurchen guards, lined up along the mountain road. Defend their supreme commander.

And at this moment, Zong Han is on the edge of the cliff. Stand up straight, looking down at your own army.

Behind Zong Han. There are a number of Jurchen generals. Wanyan Pujianu, Wanyan Zonggan, Wanyan Xiyin, Pucha Wulie, Yelu Yujian, Hulu, Lazy............ It's a one-time choice. And the two pioneer generals who first went deep into the clouds, Wanyan Lou Room and Wanyan Yinshu were also among the generals.

Wanyan Lou's room is still good, and his expression is as usual among the generals, and he still talks with people in a low voice from time to time. Wanyan Lou's room has great military achievements, good popularity, and very expensive blood. This time the in-depth penetration into Yunnei was also meritorious, and in the end, the Song army had to shrink back, which was also a disadvantage in the army, and it was not a crime of war. It also firmly shields dozens of mountain passes from the direction of Yingzhou. Among the generals, the status is still among the top three.

However, Yinshu stood in fear of the generals with his head down, and few people were willing to look at him squarely. Even Wanyan Xiyin, who was very polite to Yinshu for a while, was arrogant in front of Yinshuke.

Originally, because of his low background, the silver art was not valued by the generals. In terms of speaking, it is only one line higher than the generals such as Yelu Yujian and others. However, the reliable and solid combat exploits of silver art have been valued by Zong Han, and he has been entrusted with important tasks many times. The rest of the Jurchen generals had already discussed it in private, and they didn't know how much.

But it was this silver technique that was meritorious at the time of the destruction of Liao, but after encountering the enemy of the Southern Dynasty, it was repeatedly defeated. In the first battle of Yandi, Zong Han asked him to assist in setting up a horse to make meritorious contributions, which was definitely a loving treatment only for confidants and generals. As a result, Yinshu was almost completely wiped out, and he also lost his life.

Zonghan's preference for Shehema is known to all. Shehema was killed, and Zong Han not only killed the guards who fled back, but also wept for four or five days before he could barely recover! And Zong Han forcibly pushed the Jurchens to attack the Southern Dynasty on a large scale - much earlier than the real history. In the meantime, there is no intention of avenging the horse.

But Zong Han let go of Yinshu Ke at that time, and he was still a heavy general. This made more and more Jurchen generals more and more dissatisfied. Zong Han is wise and martial in everything, how can he be blind in this matter of silver. If this person from this small group climbs on our heads on a different day, wouldn't this make people angry and blow up their bellies!

The silver technique can once again ask the winter to storm the clouds, opening the way for the army to go south and go deeper. I don't know how many people are secretly praying behind their backs, hoping that Yinshu can have another big bad luck.

Pray for a spirit, although the silver art can finally be regarded as a key pass in Yingzhou, but more than half of his own soldiers and horses are lost, and his vitality is greatly damaged. That's not all, an important enemy figure who was originally surrounded like an iron bucket was picked up by dozens of light horsemen. During the siege and killing, Yinshu Ke also injured two or three hundred Jurchen athletes, several generals were killed in battle, and he was captured alive by the generals of the Southern Dynasty! didn't know how to beg for his life, so the generals of the Southern Dynasty left him a way to live. How is such a character not a shame for the Jurchen generals? It's a shame that he still has the face to be in the same column as the generals!

Zong Han personally led the army to arrive and set up a royal tent in the Longshou Village. For a while, the silver technique was not issued, and the generals were only convened today. All generals know. In the white land of Yingzhou, there is not much grain and material looted, and the goods transported from the rear are very limited. It's a place to stay. Today's Zonghan deliberations are bound to launch a large army, regardless of the spring rain and muddy roads, forcibly go south, seize the Yunnei prefectures as a place for the army to rest and recuperate, and approach the edge of the east of the river in the south.

Where a great army is dispatched. There must be incentives for military horses. Yinshu can be so defeated and captured, just as he should kill the sacrifice to the sky!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

While the generals have their own thoughts and wait quietly. Wearing armor. Zong Han, who was wearing a fox fur cloak, finally withdrew his gaze and turned around. Greeted: "Lou Room!" ”

Wan Yan Lou Room answered loudly and stepped forward. Zong Han patted his shoulder intimately and asked, "Lou Room." You had a face-to-face with the Southern Korean military horses. What do you think of them? ”

After Yan Lou sighed, he said solemnly: "Not weak! Immediately join forces to hedge against our Jurchen sons. The sown is opened, and the battle spirit has never declined. It is said that the southerners will not be able to come soon, and I think it is a fallacy. And the equipment is extremely fine, heavy armor, sharp soldiers, horses, and crossbows. Strong strength. My Erlang often bumped into their rangers, and the southerners had two horses for each ride. Someone is even a three-horse. Immediately, the girl was full of sharp blades. The arrows and arrows used are even made of steel! Fifty or sixty steps away, even if we are wearing double armor, we can shoot through! ”

Zong Han nodded, and asked again, "How many southerners are there in this southerner army?" ”

Wan Yan Lou replied: "I have been fighting with this Nanren army and horses for so long, and there are only seven or eight people who have grabbed them. Willing to spit less. But I do know a rough idea. This Nanren army horse is the one in Yandi............ of military horses. At present, there are thousands of horses in the army, to say the least, there are 10,000 and a half. With the addition of auxiliary troops, I don't know how many. When we are in front of it, it is already the majority of it, and the army is in the early stages............ Zong Han, the army of the southerners is known as one million, if they are all of this level. Even though we Jurchen athletes are never afraid of the enemy, we have to fight steadily! ”

After hearing that Yan Lou's room confirmed that this Nanren military horse was the one that killed his beloved son, Zong Han's face was suddenly covered with a layer of frost. After listening to Yan Lou's solemn words. Zong Hancai sneered: "Haven't you dealt with the southerners?" Just a few military horses laid by Liaogou Yanjing and Yunnei are not very strong, and they have overwhelmed the southerners for a hundred years. The army of millions of southerners is nothing more than a bunch of waste! This Shenwu ever-winning army is just an outlier. The destruction of this army and horses is like the battle of the Guard, and the southerners will lose their courage from now on! ”

Zong Han is worthy of being an important figure who participated in the maritime alliance between the Song and the Jurchens, and his understanding of the Great Song Dynasty is quite accurate.

When the Liao State was in its heyday, the elite such as the Liao Emperor's leather room in previous dynasties were not placed in Nanjing Yandi and Xijing Datong Mansion. These most elite main forces are concentrated in Zhongjing and Shangjing. Song Taizong attacked Yan, and the garrison of Nanjing headquarters dragged the siege of those elite forbidden troops in the early Song Dynasty. Then the elite main force was dispatched from Zhongjing to Beijing, and the inside and outside should be combined, and nearly 200,000 Great Song Dynasty forbidden troops collapsed in one fell swoop.

At the time of the Yuanyuan, it was a rare Liao people who transferred the elite main force of the Liao people in Wujing to go deep into the territory of the Great Song Dynasty. For a time, the Great Song Dynasty could only defend the city. In the end, relying on Song Zhenzong's personal expedition, he accidentally shot Xiao Dalin to death, and then reached a peace agreement.

Basically, the entire 100-year history of the Song-Liao confrontation was the two military horses of the Liao people, Xijing and Nanjing, which overwhelmed the entire Great Song Dynasty. And the Jurchens are the elite main forces that really defeated the Liao people in the most core of Zhongjing, Shangjing and other places! And Da Song went to pick Yanjing cheaply, and he was also defeated in the hands of Yelu Dashi and Xiao Gan. Yelu Dashi and Xiao Gan commanded just some Liao embers.

Even after the disastrous defeat of the Gaoliang River, there was a large army that had been conquered for a long time, and after the destruction of the Later Han Dynasty, they forcibly went to restore Yanyun. The army is tired and demoralized, and the reward for destroying the Han is not coming. And Song Taizong was a series of blind commands, and finally cut off the elite of the Central Forbidden Army that continued for five generations.

At the time of the Yuanyuan, there was the only time that the Liao people almost came out of the country, and the Great Song Dynasty was already deeply rooted in the civil and noble military at that time, and the defense line of Hebei was not finished, and the entire Great Song cavalry was weakened to the extreme because of the loss of horses. In the plains of Zhulu in Hebei, it is indeed not the elite opponent of the Liao, and it can only be resisted by a strong city. In the end, a peace treaty was concluded by chance.

As for Tong Guan and Fa Yan, the expedition of the Western Army was longer than that of the early Song Dynasty. The hearts of men return. And Tong Guan and the generals of the Western Army fought openly and secretly, but most of their energy was spent on their own family members stumbling each other before they suffered a big defeat.

There are objective reasons. Can be overall. In terms of military affairs, Liao is strong and Song is weak - it is not just a line. This is an indisputable fact.

The Jurchen combat power has completely overwhelmed the Liao State, and the so-called strong army of the Song people, even if it is a Shenwu army that defends the sky, what can it do? Defeat this Shenwu Changsheng army, and the entire Great Song Dynasty will have no resistance!

Zong Han's belief in this point has never wavered. It's just that it's inevitable that I'm a little confused. Why did the Song people emerge with a Shenwu army that could fight in the Northland?

Actually, it's not complicated. First, Xiao Yan's Shenwu Changsheng Army has a very good foundation, and the Baiqi Soldiers and Shengjie Army are both the field elite of the Western Army. The combat effectiveness was originally at the level of the Great Song Dynasty. Guo Yaoshi's Chang Shengjun was also trained by how many battles he fought in Yandi. Hebei dare warriors, as men who grew up in the fierce customs of the people in the border areas of Song and Liao, are by no means weaker than the men of Shaanxi who fought with Western Xia all year round. Don't you see that in real history, how many famous generals from Hebei dared to fight?

The second is that the Shenwu Winning Army has always been under the leadership of Xiao Yan and has played a series of miraculous victories. Break the earth. Kechon City. A strong army is a monster that can only be fed by continuous victory. Such a foundation. With such a record, what kind of strong army can't be honed?

The third is that the equipment can keep up, and the Great Song Dynasty is originally rich. Blades, armor, bows, crossbows, and all kinds of military resources, as much as you want. There is also Xiao Yan's robbery and hugging all the way over. There has never been a scarcity in the supply of troops. Moreover, in the battle of Fayan and the battle close to Yunnei, Xiao Yan also mastered a considerable number of horse sources and could afford to support a fine horse. As a strong army that cannot completely surpass the times, the strength of the army is also a very important confidence.

The fourth is the Shenwu Victorious Army. has always been under the control of Xiao Yan alone. The scholars and scholars have never been able to reach in. Once you start reaching out. Xiao Yan just fucking flipped the table. Although there are inevitably warlords, it is difficult to say what has changed in the long run. However, for a time, the cohesion and centripetal force of this Shenwu winning army were unmatched in the Great Song Dynasty. The current Shenwu Ever-Victorious Army is much simpler, just fighting to the death. Naturally, the rest of the Yan King took care of them for them. A simple-minded army is often an army that is quite capable of fighting.

The last point is a bit inhumane. Xiao Yan miraculously rose all the way and is now the king of Great Song Yan. As a person of this era, how can you not sprout some dragon's heart? Fighting desperately today, it may be a hundred generations of wealth in the future. At this time, it is time to earn a family business for your children and grandchildren!

Because of this, although the Shenwu Changsheng Army has not been formed for a long time, it is indeed the most capable field group in the Great Song Dynasty, and the entire Western Army will be stunned!

These various coincidences have created the inside story of a strong army, and Wanyan Zonghan naturally has no way of knowing. But for this Jurchen handsome, there is no need to think too much. Since such a divine warrior army has come out, then find them and crush them!

Looking at Zong Han's determined face, Wanyan Lou knew that there was no need to say more. The commander is determined to be a general, but he is resolute in doing it. If you continue to talk about it, it will confuse the morale of the army. It's just for Wanyan Lou's own family, why don't you want to have a good fight with such a strong enemy? Perhaps, as Zong Han said, the war against the Southern Dynasties was also like the First Battle of Hubu Dagang, and the fate of the entire empire was decided by the First War.

There are no more than 10,000 Jurchen troops in the Bubu Dagang, but now the entire Western Route Army has more than 60,000 Jurchen elites and auxiliary soldiers who can go into battle! The cangtou bullet pressure and other husbands are strong, and there are countless others!

Let's fight!

Looking at Yan Lou's enthusiastic and eager to ask for battle, Zong Han smiled with satisfaction: "Lou Room, let some merits be given to other generals." This time to the south, your subordinates have also worked hard. Covering the southbound passage is a great achievement. When the time comes, you will be rewarded with a lot of nature! ”

Wanyan Lou's room has always been what Zong Han arranged, and he implemented it without complaint. Hearing Zong Han's order, he bowed silently and retreated into the ranks of the generals.

The smile on Zong Han's face gradually faded, and his eyes swept over the faces of the generals one by one, and the generals who were still a little loose couldn't help but stand up straight one by one, with solemn expressions.

Zong Han's gaze. Finally, it landed on Yinshuke's face and beckoned to him.

Yinshuke finally raised his head and walked slowly. The eyes of countless people. And it fell on him.

Zong Han said coldly: "What else do you have to say?" ”

Yinshuke shook his head, gritted his teeth for a long time, and finally said, "The last general has nothing to say. Zong Han killed the head of the last general, and the last general was just at ease. The only thing I want is to be a pawn for the striker, and fight to the death with the southerners! ”

Many of the generals let out a sneer. In this case, it is just a man who comes forward to accept the sin. is still begging for a life like a girl. Zong Han really missaw this slave that day!

Zong Han was silent for a while, as if he was still weighing whether to cut off Yinshuke's head at this moment. The Jurchen military method is cool, and the silver art can be defeated in consecutive games. If you don't strictly enforce the military law, I am afraid that all the generals will secretly disobey your commander.

Even though he loved the silver technique, he personally promoted him to this point, and he was not even blamed for the death of his beloved son. Now it seems. Is it difficult to see your own home. Did you see the wrong person?

Yinshu knows that his life is hanging by a thread now, and he is not afraid of death. But now you must not die! As a Jurchen man, the shame and humiliation in the hands of the southerners have not been washed away, even if he dies, he will be reincarnated as a pig and dog in the next life!

Yinshu Ke suddenly raised his head, and for a moment burst out with a high-spirited spirit that he hadn't seen in these days: "Zong Han! Give the Admiral another chance! The last general fought the longest and hardest with the army and horses of the Southern Dynasty. It is the person who knows them best! In the coming war, the battle with this southern Korean army will definitely be a bitter battle. The last general will also come in handy! After defeating this Southern Dynasty army, the last general cut his neck in front of Zong Han. to atone for the previous sins! ”

The generals behind finally let out a loud sneer, especially Wanyan Xiyin's voice was the loudest. All kinds of ridicule swept in. In an instant, it almost overwhelmed the silver magic.

"Yinshuke, you are also a Jurchen, how can you be so cowardly? Die with peace of mind, look at your previous achievements, and take care of the tent you left behind. Now it seems that this little affection does not have to be with you! ”

"Yinshuke, I have also killed Liao Dog side by side with you. Now I persuade you with good words, even if you die! I'll take care of your aftermath. Otherwise, even if you save a life, I will spit on you once when I see you. You think about it yourself, what's the fun of living like this? ”

"Any merit is nothing more than filling in the lives of our Jurchen sons. I saw it in Yingzhou, and there was already Neiying to open the city gate, and Shang Zi commanded indiscriminately, and forced the lives of five or six hundred sons to take the city fortress. also let the southerners escape to Longshou Village! Not to mention the fact that he later bent his knees and begged for his life to the generals of the Southerners. I'm really ashamed to have fought with this guy! ”

The last sentence was exactly what Wanyan Xiyin said with a disdainful face. His headquarters was slightly weaker because he fought fewer tough battles and was poorly captured. He was eyeing the remnants of the military horses in the headquarters of the silver art. Recently, he has spent a lot of effort to hook them up under his command, and now he is eager to kill the master.

Seeing that the Southern Dynasty is about to start, this is a hundred times stronger than the territory occupied by the Western Route Army. The stronger the military horses in the headquarters, the more anointing they will get at that time!

No matter how the generals behind him ridiculed, Yinshu still tried his best to stand up straight and looked at Zong Han fixedly. These days, I'm afraid he has never stood so upright. Only the ugly face with deep knife marks couldn't help twitching, revealing how excited he was in the bottom of his heart.

I just want to die after the shame!

Zong Han pondered silently for a long time, and finally waved his hand: "You are guilty of a very serious crime, you can no longer lead the Jurchen army." Hand over your own army and horses, and distribute them to the generals. I asked you to lead a military horse with the surname Tatar of Mo Nan, thinking that it was a guerrilla. It's not good to fight again, and I don't have to see so-and-so, so I cut off my head............ Yinshu Ke, a certain memory of your past merits, and let you go one last time! ”

Zong Han made a decision, and all the generals were a little dissatisfied, but they were powerless to object. Yinshu can be deprived of the military horses of the headquarters, and it can be regarded as a water dog, and in the future, among the generals, there will be no need to see the ugly face of this small slave. However, there are more than 1,000 people in the Yinshu Headquarters, all of whom are strong troops who have always fought hard battles. Xijing Datong Mansion stayed in the tent room, and there were a lot of goods. These before and after are a big piece of fat! Yinshu himself is no longer enough, so he pinched him to death for a random reason. However, in the matter of dividing up the wealth of these military horses, it is necessary to make a great effort!

Zong Han finished the matter of Yinshu, and waved his hand to let him retreat from Longshou Village. There was no place for him here. And Yinshuke bowed to Zong Han proudly, and retreated silently.

The generals just watched coldly, only finished Yan Lou's room, and accompanied Yinshu to go on a journey.

When Yan Lou's room was exhausted, he returned to the class. Zong Han glanced at the generals, and suddenly pointed at the thousands of military horses under his feet.

"When the army is raised, is there such a strong military horse?"

The generals let go of their throats: "No! ”

"A certain class destroyed Liao, and it was the hardest battle to fight, and it was also a certain class that captured the Liao emperor. But he was driven to this deserted place. Are you convinced? ”

The estrangement between the Jurchen Western Route Army and the Eastern Route Army is on the bright side. The Eastern Route Army now occupies the land where the Liao people are plastered, but the Western Route Army eats mutton near the desert steppe. How can these giants be convinced? Zong Han promoted the battle of the Song Dynasty, and the generals under his command have always followed with an iron heart!

The roar sounded in the Longshou Village, shaking the mountains: "How can you be convinced? How can you be convinced! ”

Zong Han shouted suddenly: "Then lead the headquarters and march south." Defeat the Southern Dynasty to a certain one, and smash that Shenwu Victorious Army to a certain one! Revenge for Shehema! Turn the land of the Southern Dynasty into a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood! Let those southerners always be the servants of the Jurchens! ”

The generals took the order and turned to go down the mountain. And countless horns, at this moment, whined and roared in the Longshou Village, resounding throughout the four fields. Thousands of fierce Jurchen military horses were drilled out of countless military tents, waving their blades towards the dragon head village and cheering loudly!

To the south! To the south!

Halfway up the mountain, the hesitant lonely Yinshu Ke also had an ugly face twisted, tightly clutching the hilt of the knife at his waist, and roaring silently.

To the south! (To be continued......)
