Chapter 229: Homesick?

And at this moment, the Golden Vulture is also quite depressed!

What about Zong Ze's army?

I was still indifferent when I heard the news that Bianliang City was broken.

In recent days, the spies have reported that there has been no large-scale troop dispatch in Beijing.

What does this mean?

It shows that Zong Ze concluded that Bianliang City was still there.

With indifference, he broke the rumors that were circulating in the north.

And what about Liu Bi, who was sent out by the Golden Vulture to collect grain?

He led his army to loot the perimeter of Bianliang City for five days.

Forcibly scavenged a few bags of grain from 10,000 acres of fertile land......

Or scattered by local farmers during the autumn harvest!

In addition, the perimeter of Bianliang City in the Song Dynasty has long been fortified and clear.

Not only was there no food, but even the people of the Song Dynasty rarely saw it.

This shows that the Song people have withdrawn to the south in advance!

Liu Bi returned to the barracks in a huff and reported to Jin Wushu what he had seen and heard on this trip.

After listening to the golden vulture, the whole person was stunned on the seat, and he lost his mind for a long time.

It is now certain that what the emperor of the Song Dynasty said on the city tower was not groundless.

It turned out that they had already vacated such a large strategic buffer area, waiting for themselves to attack the city in the south.

Now the Golden Vulture is a little at a loss.

He tried to sneak across the Yellow River with great difficulty.

mustered up all his strength, ready to fight hard to capture Bianliang City.

But in the end, I don't know why.

At this moment, the golden vulture is like a childish, ignorant young man.

I don't know how to deal with it.

Zhao Shuo foresaw his plan in advance.

This method really exceeded his expectations.

Let go of the siege?

No!

The Golden Vulture didn't dare now.

At the same time, the offensive of the right flank of the Jin army was also hindered.

Hou Sanhui, who was sent out by the Golden Vultures, was anxious to make a great contribution after taking refuge in the Jin people.

So he ran all the way into the hinterland of the Great Song Dynasty, passed through Li Gang's military town, and went directly to attack Jinling City.

However, the Taishou on the side of Jinling City has been replaced by Zhao Shuo with a group of elite generals.

This made Hou Sanhui unable to exert his strength, and finally fought fiercely for more than ten days, and did not break through a corner of Jinling City.

Moreover, the defenders of Jinling City became more and more courageous as they fought.

Seeing that this tactical goal is not complete.

Jin Wushu stayed in the barracks northwest of Bianliang City for a month, waiting for the other armies to cooperate.

However, to his despair, the other Jin armies also gained little in the whole process.

In desperation, Jin Wushu turned his horse's head again and sent people to Baoding City to scold outside Cheng'an County, hoping to use such means to stimulate the Song army to go out of the city and fight with him.

However, Zhang Jun, the guard general of Baoding, and the guard general of Cheng'an County ignored him.

No matter how the Jin people abused, the two cities were as solid as a rock, that is, they did not open the city gates, but responded with bows and crossbows on the city walls.

It's numb!

The Golden Vulture suddenly felt that the occupation was not good.

Everything was the opposite of what he had planned.

Think about it more than a month ago, the elite of the Jin army led by him quickly moved south, and at that time, the soldiers were sharp and had the potential to sweep through thousands of thousands.

The kidnappers and horses under his command and the Iron Floating Massacre are even more indestructible and unstoppable.

At that time, what Jin Wushu heard most in the barracks was the crazy chatter of the soldiers of the Jin Army.

Everyone's emotions were high and they were very excited.

I just don't want the army to stagnate, and I want to fight and kill all the way.

But now?

The heroic momentum of the past is gone.

In the blink of an eye, it has reached the cold winter wax moon.

The end of the wax moon is the New Year of the Great Song Dynasty.

Every time the people of the Central Plains are about to celebrate the New Year, they will prepare New Year's goods in advance.

There will even be some fireworks in the middle of the wax moon.

At this time, the Golden Vulture could only drink and get drunk alone in the tent!

The soldiers under his command also gathered around the camp, staring blankly at the Bianliang City of the Great Song Dynasty.

Smell the smell of gunpowder coming from inside the castle tower and the smell of Song people's cooking food.

Jin Wushu said angrily: "Someone! ”

The soldier who was waiting outside his tent immediately walked in: "Here! ”

"The two armies are facing each other, why are there artillery fire on the opposite side?"

"Marshal Qiyu, it doesn't seem to be artillery fire, just now the secret agent came back to report that it was the Song army setting off fireworks on the top of the city."

"Fireworks?"

Liu Bi, a Han man who followed him, said: "Your Highness, the fireworks of the Song Dynasty were developed by gunpowder, which can release a very beautiful shape. ”

Jin Wushu's face was gloomy, and he muttered, "The Song people can play." ”

But in the next second, Jin Wushu smashed his fists on the table, and said like thunder: "That dog emperor of the Song Dynasty, why don't you go out of the city to fight against me?" ”

"Your Highness, the Song people are going to celebrate the New Year."

"Now is the day of family joy and family members in Bianliang City."

"The emperor of the Song Dynasty also asked the defenders to demonstrate with our army on the city wall, saying that our soldiers could not be reunited with their families."

When Jin Wushu heard this, his face instantly fell into an ice cave.

With this simplicity, the emperor of the Song Dynasty was shaking his military heart again.

It has been a month and a half since the Jin army set out to the present.

They spent three days in Baoding and a few days in Cheng'an County.

Now that I have arrived in Bianliang City, I have not found any flaws in the siege.

So after a long delay, the former elite of the Jin people has now become a tired division.

However, the Song people celebrated the festival of reunion unscrupulously in the city.

But what about the Jin Army?

Since the food had not yet arrived, the mutton they had brought with them had already been eaten.

Now I can only wait to boil white rice porridge.

Jin Wushu got up and walked out of the tent, and through the dark night sky, he could clearly see the fireworks above Bianliang City.

And the soldiers of the Golden Army couldn't help but take out the souvenirs they were carrying.

Someone took out a whistle, which was a gift from the children before the expedition.

Some people also took out small daggers, which were gifts from the elders of the family.

Others hold crumpled words engraved on parchment.

It was the amulet that his family had asked him for before he set out on the expedition.

Jin Wushu found that there was an atmosphere of not wanting to fight in the entire army.

At this time, Liu Bi frowned and said: "Your Highness, our army is now a tired division, and if it continues like this, I am afraid that it will collapse without a fight, and the last general advises us to withdraw our troops and make other plans." ”

"Otherwise, the dog emperor of the Song Dynasty will launch a sneak attack on us when our army has no will to fight, and the consequences will be unimaginable at that time."

The Golden Vulture had a hideous face, and his eyes burst with annoyance and anger.

He looked at Liu Bi, nodded thoughtfully, and said, "Pass on my generals, and the whole army will retreat!" ”

In the middle of the night, the army of the Golden Vulture began to move away sullenly.

However, in Bianliang City, it is still in an atmosphere of national celebration.

Even Emperor Zhao Shuo was not idle, but he was different from most nobles.
