Chapter 299: Fighting for Qi
Yang Ye squinted at Wu Yingying, and saw that his expression was focused and very respectful, so he said, "I know that you have an old relationship with Han Derang, who was left behind in Khitan Nanjing, and now you are under the suspicion of the imperial court. But the other generation of Chief Hu is a man with a human face and a beast's heart, and he doesn't want to fish and flesh the people of the Central Plains all the time. Wu Jiedu can not forget the big festival because of personal feelings, the difference between the Han is very important, if you make a mistake, you will be ruined, and the stench will be ten thousand years, if you don't believe it, and look at the fate of Shi Jingjiao. He said this sonorously and powerfully, and he had a sense of power, Wu Yingying's heart sank, and he arched his hand and said in a deep voice: "Virtue has been taught, thank you for the old general's vigilance." "His official position in the Great Song Dynasty is now much higher than that of Yang Ye, and tens of thousands of subordinates are like wolves and tigers who are fighting in the northwest, but they are very respectful to Yang Ye, and it is this heroic righteousness that shines for thousands of years.
Seeing that he obeyed his orders, Yang Ye nodded, pointed to the three thousand Xiaowu cavalry in the forest not far away, and said in a deep voice: "Those guards of yours are impatient." β
Wu Yingying turned around, only to see Lin Zhongren and the others looking here, although there was no impatience in their eyes, they were bored. Since Wu Yingying led the Anxi army to confront Cao Han in Taiyuan without authorization, Zhao Jiong strengthened his supervision of him, although he was still in the imperial camp, but Xiaowu Du Yu Hou Lin Zhong with 3,000 cavalry was stationed around Wu Yingying's military camp, and when marching, they also entered and exited together, and the intention of monitoring and prevention was obvious. However, for Lin Zhongren, it is also a chore, Wu Yingxing's official rank is high, the court on the surface, at least before the complete victory in Youzhou, still maintains his treatment and decency, Xiaowu Army is called Suihu, but in fact, it is surveillance, but it can't interfere too much with Wu Yingying's behavior, otherwise the imperial lawsuit will start, which will make His Majesty angry, and the military department will only blame Xiaowu Army for not doing things.
Seeing that Wu Yingying and Yang Ye were parting ways, they went on the road surrounded by the three hundred tooth army, and the Xiaowu army, which had been waiting for a long time, lazily turned over and got on the horse, scolding the sultry ghost weather in June with a dry mouth, and the column followed behind Wu Yingying's department. Zhao Jiong was angry with Wu Yingying when he confronted Cao Han without authorization, or perhaps he was focused on urging the elite of the pre-palace class to rush to Youzhou, so he no longer ordered Wu Yingying to follow the imperial camp around, Wu Yingying was also happy, all the way to the Ya military camp sergeant pointed to the mountains and rivers in the north, all the way slowly driving, all the way to the tail of the imperial camp, walked for more than ten days, arrived at Yishui, only to see that there were more than 40,000 forbidden troops sprinkled on the river beach like scattered beans, the east battalion, the west battalion, like thousands of mushrooms spread all over the river beach, the scene was spectacular, the Xiang army urged the people to rush across the bridge across the riverγ
Wu Yingying saw the banner of Pan Mei in the forbidden army on the river beach, the banner of Cao Han, and even the banner of Zhao Dezhao, the king of Wugong County, but only Zhao Jiong's dragon flag was missing, Wu Yingying asked Zhang Zhongyao to inquire. The soldier said, the official arrived in Yishui, heard that the Japanese cavalry east and west classes under the leadership of Liu Renyun and Kong Shouzheng captured the Qigou Pass, overjoyed, did not wait to build the bridge, then urged the front of the palace to go straight, wading through the water, and now has gone to Zhuozhou. β
"What? Zhao Jiong actually surpassed the main force of the forbidden army and led the elite of the Banzhi as the vanguard?" Wu Yingying was a little surprised, looking at the camp lazily on the Yishui River beach, releasing horses, making food, and even untying the various forbidden armies in their clothes and armor basking in the sun, Zhao Jiong actually thought that the main force of the forbidden army was moving slowly, and he impatiently led the elite of the imperial camp with only more than 30,000 people to advance first, and now he is afraid that he is almost in Zhuozhou. Although Pan Mei, Cao Han and other generals have won his trust, but after all, they are old generals left by Zhao Kuangyin, in Zhao Jiong's imperial class, there are Liu Renyun, Kong Shouzheng, Fu Qian, Wang Chao and other cronies and generals who he has drawn with one hand, and Cui Han, a steady general, leads the overall situation, and the 30,000 soldiers under his command are gathered by the elite of the entire Central Plains army, no wonder Zhao Jiong has this confidence.
"That's why the armor is tending, day and night, doubling the road, fighting for profit for a hundred miles, then capturing the three generals, the strong first, the tired later, and the eleventh of its law. Wu Yingying looked at Xiao Xiao Yishui, his eyes were full of listless forbidden soldiers, and muttered to himself.
"What? Actually passed through the city and went straight to Zhuozhou?" In the Qigou Pass of the official family, Kong Shouzheng, the commander of the Japanese cavalry east and west classes, had just handed over the defense affairs with Liu Yu, the commander of the Qigou Pass Army of the Song Dynasty, and originally waited for the official family to be stationed in the city, waiting for the main force of the follow-up forbidden army to arrive.
"General Kong, there are many mountains and rivers in Yizhou, and they use mules and horses to carry them back and forth, and the Khitan cavalry cannot gallop at will. The imperial court got Yizhou, and went straight to Zhuozhou and Youzhou to the north, and blocked the Xu River and Tang River to the south. Although Yizhou has fallen to Hu Chen for a long time, the people in the city are all nostalgic for their homeland, and when they learned that Wang Shi had recovered their homeland, Youyan's father and elder all ran to tell each other. Yizhou athletes, familiar with the geography of the mountains and rivers near the left, are willing to be the forerunner of the king. Liu Yu, the military envoy of Yizhou of Liao, who came over, looked at Kong Shouzheng who hurried back, and talked to him in a hurry, this Youyan Han people were the most angry under the command of Liao, even Liu Yu, who was a military envoy, and his relatives were inevitably bullied by the Khitans, but for a hundred years, the southern court was too uncompetitive, and the Jin Dynasty almost even Bianliang was occupied by the Khitans. But at the moment, it seems that the general in the south is not easy to speak, after the dedication of the city, Kong Shouzheng 1,000 classes directly managed the city defense of Qigou Pass, only roughly inspected the original soldiers and horses in Yizhou, and did not mention how to place them next, looking at his busy appearance, it was not easy for Liu Yu to find him to say a word.
Kong Shouzheng frowned, as if he was not listening, until Liu Yu came to him, and then said in a deep voice: "Liu Jun, the soldiers are fast, I want to lead the troops to Zhuozhou Youzhou, I hope that Liu Junzhi will restrain Yizhou to surrender, don't cause trouble, Liu Jun's great contribution to the city, I will show light merit to the court." After that, he didn't wait for Liu Yu to answer, he turned around and turned over the saddle and got on the horse under the support of his own soldiers, and shouted loudly, the war horse turned up its four hooves and went north, and the elite cavalry of the Japanese cavalry in the iron armor followed closely behind, rushing out of the city like a splash of wind, and only a sonorous sound of gold and iron feet was left in the Qigou Pass, which made people feel cold. Liu Yu looked at the back of the guards of the east and west classes of the Japanese horse, and looked up, above the Guancheng, the banner of the Great Song Dynasty had been replaced, and he commanded more than 2,000 Yizhou Han soldiers.
In order to avoid suspicion, Liu Yu took the Yizhou soldiers to the south of Qigou Pass to go down to the village, waited for a day and night, and saw the court forbidden army brigade, and then there were continuous military horses through Qigou Pass to the north, looking at the flag, most of them were the main force of the first-class forbidden army such as iron cavalry, control crane, Long Jie, and Hujie, with distinct armor and strong troops, plus all kinds of miscellaneous forbidden troops, and there were no less than 100,000 people before and after. "Lord Military Envoy, the soldiers of the Southern Dynasty are so sharp, it seems that we have made the right move. Qian Qing, the secretary of the army, said to Liu Yu. Liu Yu had a sad face, without him, after so many forbidden armies, there was no general to explain to him, how to settle these two thousand Yizhou soldiers, all of them went to Zhuozhou and Youzhou.
