…

In late February this year, not long after Li Cungang withdrew his troops from Bianliang City in Tokyo, Zhao Huan tore up the peace treaty and sent Yao Gutong to lead 60,000 elite western troops to Hedong to rescue Taiyuan Mansion, and sent 90,000 elite western troops led by Zhongtong to Hebei to rescue Zhongshan, Hejian, Zhending and other Hebei counties.

Now, all the cadres and troops in Hebei have retreated to the north of Zhongshan Mansion, and there is no sign of going south for the time being, so it can be said that the division has almost completed the task assigned to him by Zhao Huan.

And Yao Gu has not yet reached the city of Taiyuan.

When Li Cun led his troops to besiege Bianliang City in Tokyo, Yao Gu and Zhe Yanzhi also led their elite troops to rush to King Qin of Bianliang City in Tokyo.

However, due to the long distance, soldiers, horses, grain, grass and baggage needed to be raised, etc., until Li Cun withdrew his troops from Bianliang City, Tokyo, Yao Gubu and Zheyan did not rush to Bianliang City, Tokyo.

Later, the Yao Gu Department and the Orihiko Quality Department met between Huaizhou and Weizhou.

At this time, just in time for Zhao Huan to tear up the peace treaty, Zhao Huan appointed Yao Gu as the envoy of Hedong Road and Zhi Yanzhi as the official affairs of Xuanfu Division, and ordered them to go to Hedong immediately to relieve the siege of Taiyuan City.

After Yao Gu and Zheyan received the order, they turned around and went north together, and then advanced in the direction of Taiyuan.

However, due to a lack of understanding of the reality of the cadres in Hedong and their fear of the strong combat effectiveness of the cadres, Yao Gu and Zheyanzhi did not dare to rush north.

Therefore, the process of Yao Gu and Zheyan leading the army to march was particularly cautious.

As a result, the speed at which they traveled north was not fast.

Later, Yao Gubu and Orihiko finally came to Zezhou.

Yao Gu sent Colonel Wang De to inquire about the news of the cadre army, and then learned that Yue Fei, the general of the cadre army, was leading more than 40,000 men to the south and was about to arrive in Zezhou.

Yao Gu and Zheyan were like a great enemy, and began to prepare carefully for battle.

But he didn't want to, Yue Fei took a turn here in Zezhou, and then retreated.

Yao Gu and Zheyan were worried that this was Yue Fei's strategy, so they kept waiting and watching, and they couldn't make amusement.

When Yao Gu and Zhe Yanzhi finally found out that both Longde Mansion and the Weisheng Army had only a small number of cadres preparing to recover the Longde Mansion and the Weisheng Army, Yue Fei suddenly led 40,000 horses back to Longde Mansion and the Weisheng Army, and had the potential to advance to Zezhou again.

Although there were more soldiers and horses than Yue Fei's troops, Yao Gu and Zhe Yanzhi were very afraid of the cadres who had never been able to defeat the Song army.

Therefore, Yao Gu and Zhe Yanzhi did not rashly launch an attack on the Qianjun, but kept under full martial law in the areas of Jincheng and Jiangzhou on the other side of the Kongzhai River, preparing to fight with Yue Fei in a defensive counterattack that their Song army was best at.

Although Yue Fei was young and eager to defeat the main force of the Song army, he did not rashly attack the very well-prepared Yao Gu Department and Zheyan Quality Department, but did not rush to find fighters......

……

In order to commend the cities that were still being held in Hebei and Hedong, Zhao Huan issued an edict and rewarded Zhan Du, Zhang Xiaochun and other guards for their meritorious service in defending the city.

On this basis, Zhao Huan personally gave a lot of instructions on the war in Hebei and Hedong.

Seeing that Zhao Huan's ministers were either focusing on the war in Hebei and Hedong, or on welcoming Zhao Ji and other royal families and clans of the Zhao Song Dynasty back to Beijing, the armaments of the Zhao Song Dynasty were still so lax and there was no progress, and Cheng Lu Haowen was very worried about the future of the Zhao Song Dynasty in the imperial history, so he gave Zhao Huan a chapter and said:

"If you have great ambitions, you will benefit China, and the country will come back in autumn and winter. Be prepared to defend against the enemy, and pay attention to it quickly. Today, the affairs of the border are drawn, and there is no facility in the tenth month, and the ministers will not be able to ask for it, and this minister is deeply afraid."

It may be that Zhao Huan felt that Lu Haowen was quite reasonable, so he made a holy decree in his busy schedule, asking Zhulu to select generals, train regular soldiers, recruit quotas, repair armor, save food, and prepare military supplies.

However, with Zhao Ji and other members of the royal family and clan of the Zhao Song Dynasty returning to Bianliang City, Tokyo, the Zhao Song Dynasty was full of joy, and the civil and military officials thought that the internal worries no longer existed, and the cadres did not seem to have the intention of going south again, and the external troubles had been eliminated, so the Zhao Song court

Tianran, thinking that it was safe and sound, the border defense was also put on hold, and no one cared.

After the seed master heard about this, he hurriedly gave Zhao Huan a recital:

"The Great Cadres want to cut off Hebei and Hedong, and many officials, soldiers and civilians in Hebei and Hedong are unwilling to rebel against the Song Dynasty and join the Cadres, which is bound to hold the territory of the two roads for our Great Song Dynasty, which will inevitably attract the wrath of the Great Qian. The minister has already found out that Emperor Daqian is personally asking about spring planting, and he wants to collect more grain and grass, and he must prepare for the occupation of our territory in the Great Song Dynasty. The minister decided on this basis, the autumn is high and the horse is fat, and the cadres will come again to make an appointment with him. And now it is advisable to prepare for border defense, do not rely on it not to come, and should wait for it. Specially for His Majesty, so prepare the border to defend against the enemy, all eight things ......."

Generally speaking, the eight ideas of the master are to hope that Zhao Huan can issue an edict to concentrate on training Hebei and Hedong armor guards, build a horizontal navy to garrison the Yellow River, repair ponds and cities, and exempt Hebei and Hedong from taxes.

After Zhao Huan discussed with the group of rulers, he agreed to these proposals of the Seed Master.

can agree yes, but Zhao Huan now not only wants to strengthen national defense, he has just ascended the throne and he is also facing problems such as reforming internal affairs and politics.

Before Li Cun led the army south, Zhang Quan, Wei Zhongda, He Dagui and other officials of the Zhao and Song dynasties, on the eve of the siege of the city, when Zhao Ji hurriedly fled westward, they did not care about the national disaster, rushed to send their families out of the city, and left Tokyo Bianliang City without permission for various reasons, their shameless behavior caused great public indignation, so Zhao Huan deposed them all.

In addition, during the period when Li Cun led the army to besiege Bianliang City in Tokyo, those officials who did not perform well or did not conform to the current main battle atmosphere of the Zhao Song Dynasty were also deposed by Zhao Huan.

This led to a large number of official vacancies in the Zhao and Song dynasties.

Zhao Huan had to fill the vacancies left by these officials as soon as possible.

In addition, Geng Nanzhong suggested to Zhao Huan that the crown prince should be established as soon as possible to prevent Zhao Ji's restoration and dispel those who still have illusions about Zhao Ji's restoration.

Zhao Huan felt that Geng Nanzhong's suggestion was very reasonable, so he hurriedly made his eldest son (and also Zhao Huan's only son) Zhao Chen the crown prince, so as not to lose the imperial power.

- Geng Nanzhong was also promoted by Zhao Huan to be a subordinate servant because of this.

Then, it was Zhao Huan's birthday.

On behalf of the civil and military officials of the Zhao and Song dynasties, Xu Churen requested that Zhao Huan's birthday be named "Qianlong Festival".

"Dry Dragon" is taken from the fifth hexagram of the Book of Changes: "Ninety-five, the flying dragon is in the sky."

The civil and military officials of the Zhao and Song dynasties used "Qianlong" as a metaphor for Zhao Huan, hoping that Zhao Huan could set things right, work hard, and revitalize the majesty of the Zhao and Song dynasties.

Zhao Huan himself felt that the name "Qianlong Dragon" could be expanded into the dragon of the Great Qian Dynasty, which was very good, implying that he could destroy the Great Qian Dynasty and regain the lost territory of the Zhao and Song dynasties, as well as the sixteen states of Yanyun, Annan, Zhancheng and other places, making him an emperor through the ages.

So Zhao Huan happily named his birthday "Qianlong Festival".

- The birthdays of the emperors of the Zhao and Song dynasties were all holidays. Zhao Kuangyin's birthday is February 16, which is the Spring Festival; Zhao Guangyi's birthday is the seventh day of October, which is the Qianming Festival, and later changed to the Shouning Festival...... Zhao Ji's birthday is the tenth day of October, which is the Tianning Festival.

Zhao Huan has always opposed extravagance and luxury, advocating simplicity and frugality, and what he is most unaccustomed to is Zhao Ji's arrogance and extravagance.

It is precisely because of this that Zhao Huan received a series of praises before becoming the emperor.

However, it may be that he destroyed the Daqian Dynasty and became the first emperor of the ages, so that Zhao Huan was extremely happy.

Therefore, on the day of the Qianlong Festival, Zhao Huan made an exception to reward the ministers for holding a banquet in the Zichen Hall to celebrate his birthday.

Zhao Huan is 26 years old this year, and this Qianlong Festival is the most solemn birthday he has ever had in his thrifty life......

It should be said that Zhao Huan also knew that when the autumn was high and the horses were fat, Li Cun was likely to lead the army to attack the Zhao Song Dynasty again, and he should hurry up to reserve military talents.

Therefore, Zhao Huan also issued an edict to let the officials above the supervision of the imperial history in Bianliang City, Tokyo, and the prefect army and the Lu branch of the Foreign Supervision Department above the jurisdiction of the imperial court, within the scope of the imperial court's envoys, choose with public heart those who have served in the frontier, or who have experienced battle formations, and who have the courage to lead the army, and also asked to recommend two people each.

Write down his previous positions and make sure he is promoted.

In fact, all the civil and military officials of the Zhao and Song Dynasty had realized that Li Cun was likely to attack the Zhao Song Dynasty again when the autumn was high and the horses were fat, in order to avenge their Zhao Song Dynasty's broken contract.

But how to deal with the possible war, how to defend the Zhao Song Dynasty, there is no good way since Zhao Huan and below.

That is to say, since Zhao Huan and below, the people in power of the Zhao Song Dynasty actually understand everything, but they just did not make a reasonable strategic target deployment, and also lacked a reasonable emergency plan, in terms of governing the country, in the military and political system, Zhao Huan and his ministers are still in a state of peacetime, and what is even more sad is that Zhao Huan and his ministers seem to be more enthusiastic about eliminating the old ministers of the Zhao Ji era, and are more interested in abolishing the policies of the Zhao Ji era. All of them did not attract the attention of Zhao Huan Junchen.

——In the eyes of Zhao Huan's monarchs, it seems that the biggest thing is to eliminate the influence of Zhao Ji's era and stabilize Zhao Huan's imperial power and the power in their hands.

As for Xu Churen, the prime minister of the Zhao and Song dynasties at this stage, he is a jinshi of the eighth year of Shenzong Yuanfeng and a veteran of the four dynasties.

Therefore, many people have great expectations for Xu Churen to be the prime minister.

But Xu Churen's main battle returned to the main battle, but he was just a scholar in the end, and he didn't understand military affairs at all.

Although he also put forward proposals such as "reforming the horse administration, that is, proposing to concentrate on raising horses in Bianliang City, Tokyo, and instead disperse them to various armies to raise horses" and "detain households and land and recruit village soldiers".

But this far water can't quench the thirst of the near, and it is not a good solution to the imminent crisis faced by the Zhao and Song dynasties in a short period of time.

Actually-

If it was just like that, the Zhao Song Dynasty would not be in danger.

What really pushed the Zhao Song Dynasty into the abyss was that since Zhao Huan and below, there was no clear understanding of the current situation and the real strength of the Zhao Song Dynasty.

This made Zhao Huan Junchen not only not actively prepare to deal with Li Cun's second attack on the Song Dynasty, but also sent all the main forces of the Song army to rescue Taiyuan City desperately......

……

There were two armies that originally came to the rescue of Taiyuan City.

The first was the 60,000 Western Army led by Yao Gu and Zhe Yanzhi, and this part of the Song army had been staying in the area of Zezhou.

The second is the Hedong soldiers and horses led by Zhang Xiaochun's son Zhang Hao and the Yanyan army led by Huang Di, the military envoy of the Yanyan Road, who also have tens of thousands.

In terms of troops, the number of the Song army was more than double that of Yue Fei's hand.

Moreover, at this time, Yue Fei only had more than 20,000 horse troops in his hands, which was not as many as the Song army.

It is said that in this case, the Song army should take the initiative to fight with the cadre army.

But Yao Gu made up his mind, guarded the danger, and did not take the initiative to fight Yue Fei at all.

The two armies confronted each other until the end of April, seeing that Yao Gu had been hiding in the turtle shell he had built himself, and that the grain and grass of the Song army had been seriously unable to keep up with the military intelligence department, and that there was not much left in the Yan army, Yue Fei immediately changed his strategy and sent Zhang Xian to lead the enemy army to defeat the Yan Yan army in the area of Shangxian Village in the northeast of Fenzhou.

After Zhang Xian received the order, he sent Guo Jin to lead a thousand horse troops to lure the enemy into battle in front of the Huangdi army village, and by the way to reconnoiter the position of the Song army.

After Guo Jin's reconnaissance, the Song army had a total of nine military villages stationed in the area of Shangxian Village, all of which were located on Beigang, several miles apart.

And the Song army all obeyed Huang Di's order, closed the gate of the village, and did not fight.

After finding out the situation of the Song army, and seeing that the Song army should not fight, Zhang Xian was very decisive and personally led the enemy army to come, they quickly divided into nine units, and also divided a part, and stopped at a place three or five miles away from the military village - this is a reserve.

[In view of the general environment,

The nine forces of the enemy army were quickly dispersed under the command of Zhang Xian, and then each rushed towards one of the Song army's military villages.

Huang Di's military village was the direction of Zhang Xian's key attack, so he was attacked first, and it was Zhang

Xian personally led people to attack.

Huang Di was also a general with very rich combat experience, and when he saw Zhang Xian personally leading the army to rush in, he immediately sent three teams of divine arm archers out of the village to shoot at the broken enemy army on Gaogang.

But the enemy army did not retreat, and immediately attacked Huang Di's military fortress, and launched a counterattack on the Song army on the horse.

After the two armies had been firing at each other for a while, the arrows in Huang Di's army were suddenly used up.

Without an arrow, the Song army of Huang Di was immediately like a toothless tiger, Zhang Xian grabbed the fighter plane and rushed into the gate first.

The defenders in the village fought with the broken enemy army led by Zhang Xianqin for a while, they couldn't resist it, and they scattered and broke away, and there were many officers and soldiers in the village, the people and the people who transported grain, seeing that the situation was not good, they knelt down and surrendered.

Soon, the rest of the villages were also broken by the enemy army, and the remnants of the Song army retreated in the direction of Fenzhou......

After this defeat, Zhao Huan Junchen immediately panicked.

Someone said to Zhao Huan, "If the imperial court does not rescue Taiyuan, Taiyuan City will definitely fall soon."

Zhao Huan heard this, and hurriedly held a meeting to ask the group of governors.

Xu Han suggested to Zhao Huan at the meeting that the situation in Hebei had also stabilized, so he ordered the elite of the 90,000 Western Army under his command to advance westward to rescue Taiyuan City, and at the same time ordered Yao Gu and Zhang Hao to lead their headquarters to quickly go north, and the three armies fought each other to relieve the siege of Taiyuan.

Xu Han believed that the men and horses in the middle of the division attacked from the flank, and Yao Gu and Zhang Hao's men attacked from the front, and the three main forces together were close to 200,000, and there was no reason why Taiyuan City could not be saved.

Zhao Huan felt that Xu Han's strategy was very reasonable, and immediately gave orders to the seed master according to Xu Han's strategic concept.

At this time, it had already been discovered in the seed division that Li Cungang had sent 30,000 horse troops to Yue Fei as reinforcements, and even his own personal guard You Yi army had been sent to Yue Fei.

Therefore, after receiving Zhao Huan's order, the planter did not immediately go to rescue Taiyuan City, but first wrote a letter to Yao Gu and Zhang Hao, inviting them to rescue Taiyuan together.

——The seed master felt that his army was not necessarily the opponent of Yue Fei, who had at least 50,000 cavalry and a total strength of almost 100,000.

Let's talk about the side of the dry army.

Seeing that the three main forces of the Song army had all come to the rescue of Taiyuan City, Yue Fei discussed with Han Fang and others, and decisively gave up Longde Mansion and the Weisheng Army, and then directly shrank their forces in the direction of Taiyuan City.

After the Zhao Song court learned of this, many people judged that Yue Fei was probably preparing to withdraw his troops on all fronts.

Zhao Huanjunchen felt that this was a great opportunity to deal a heavy blow to the cadre army, and perhaps he could solve the crisis of the invasion of the cadre army once and for all.

Therefore, Zhao Huan Junchen was very annoyed by the delay in entering the army.

Zhao Huan mercilessly issued an edict to the seed division, saying that the cadres might withdraw the army on the whole line, urging the seed division to immediately march to Taiyuan and achieve a great victory as soon as possible.

After reading the edict, the seed master sighed: "Tickle, the soldiers are also killed. I joined the army, and I never retreated, and now I am old, and I bear to take this as a sin!"

Xu Han even sent six or seven letters to the seed master in one day, and the wording was harsher than the other, accusing the seed master of teasing the enemy, and forcing the seed master to immediately send troops, and he must atone for his crime by relieving the siege of Taiyuan.

The seed master was forced by Zhao Huanjun's ministers, and looked up to the sky and sighed: "It's not good, and the sky is also." Why do I love to die and not repay the country?"

So, under the persecution of Zhao Huanjunchen, the seed master led the army from Tumen out of the well and Chengguan and marched to Yuci.

At the same time, the seed master wrote to Yao Gu and Zhang Hao, agreeing that the three armies would go their separate ways.

In order to complete the task assigned by Zhao Huan Junchen, the seed master also ordered that the baggage and the things that reward the army should not accompany the army, and all of them would stay in Zhending, and the army would advance lightly.

After Yue Fei sent rangers to find out the movement of the central part of the seed division, he chose to shrink his forces again to show the enemy weakness.

Therefore, there were no cadres on the road in the middle of the division, and they smoothly entered Hedong from Hebei.

Seeing this, from the division downwards, everyone thought that Zhao Huan Junchen had guessed correctly, and the cadres had really withdrawn from the army.

So, the people and horses in the middle of the division are on the march

Military discipline is loose and casual. The soldiers were not skilled, and even the weapons of battle were handed over to the officers to carry on their backs. The whole army was not ready for battle. In addition, because the planters were in a hurry to march and did not bring enough grain and grass to carry the baggage, the army was seriously short of food later, so that since the middle and lower levels of the planters, each person was only given a spoonful of black beans to eat every day, and the soldiers were hungry and exhausted, which made the morale of the middle part of the planters low and the combat effectiveness was very weak.

On this section of the road near Taiyuan City, Yue Fei was afraid that the breeders would be alert, and began to lure the enemy deep with a small group of men and horses.

After the Song army in the middle of the division encountered these small groups of cadres, they used the divine arm bow to repel the cadres and soldiers many times.

The planter wanted to reward these archers, but the silver bowl he carried with him was not enough, so he had to give up.

Many soldiers of the Song army were resentful and angry when they saw that the merits of the division were not rewarded, and they were unwilling to continue fighting, and even fled in all directions.

When the central part of the seed division marched to Kill Xiong Ridge, Yue Fei personally led 100,000 main forces to fight a decisive battle with the central part of the seed division.

There is no suspense in this battle.

Yue Fei is careless in the breeder, and he waits for work with ease, and there are more people than the breeder.

As a result, nearly 90,000 Song troops died to the death, surrendered, and were almost completely annihilated by Yue Fei, only Zhang Jun and other small groups of men and horses, relying on martial arts and luck to scatter and escape, or live in the mountains and forests, or retreat to the Pingding army.

In the end, the cadres surrounded the Song army, and there were only more than 100 men and horses left around the division.

At this time, someone pulled a horse and let the breeder ride to break through.

But the planter refused to leave, and he thanked him miserably: "My general, as far as this is concerned, it is not appropriate to survive, Er Cao is urgent, and there is no thief."

In the end, the seed master was shot and died, hated the territory, and died heroically.

After defeating the Seed Division, Yue Fei immediately led all the horse armies south to meet the Song army of Yao Gubu.

Two days later, Yue Fei's troops encountered the Song army of Yao Gu, who was slowly moving north, at Pantuo.

The cadre army had more than 50,000 horses, and the Yao Gu Department and the Zheyan Quality Department together had a total of 60,000 horses.

Yue Fei used the tactics of the Mongolian iron cavalry taught by Li Cun to easily defeat the Yao Gu Department and the Zheyan Quality Department.

The remnants of the Song army were pursued and killed by the cadres all the way to the Weisheng army.

Seeing that the Ma army of the cadres was too fierce, the general Jiao Anjie and others spread rumors that "the cadres are fierce and invincible, and if everyone fights again, they will all have to be left here by the cadres and the bones will be gone", which shook the morale of the army and strongly persuaded Yao Gu to retreat from Longde Mansion.

Yao Gu saw that the Qianjun army was indeed overwhelming, and listened to the advice of Jiao Anjie and others, so he led the remnants of the Song army to retreat to Longde Mansion overnight.

In Longde Mansion, Jiao Anjie and others repeated their old tricks, and then strongly persuaded Yao Gu to take the opportunity to escape.

Yao Gu, who had been stable all his life, was really panicked by Yue Fei this time, and then chose to listen to the advice of Jiao Anjie and others, and led the army to continue to flee south.

Yue Fei personally led tens of thousands of horse troops, embellished behind the Song army, and chased the remnants of the Song army across the Yellow River.

Defeated two generals in the Song Army's division and Yao Gu, defeated more than 100,000 Song troops, captured a large territory, and Yue Fei, who was only twenty-three years old, became famous......
