In fact, the old, weak, sick and disabled people also know very well that long-distance migration on foot in such weather is almost a dead end......

Four hundred miles.

Without the protection of the house, there is no fire to sleep on at night, and you will really freeze to death.

Wang Yue's own subordinates froze to death more than 100 times, he walked for a total of five days, and they all carried tents, wrapped in leather jackets, slept in special leather mattresses, and wrapped dogskin hats on their heads, so they still froze to death on the road More than 100 people, and nearly 1,000 people suffered frostbite to varying degrees, and even needed amputation.

Not to mention the old, weak, sick and disabled.

In the end, when he set off on the third day, Wang Yue only took away 10,000 local young people, but more than 30,000 women and children took away, and nearly 30,000 old and weak people remained in Liaoyang.

Anyway, all the supplies that can't be taken away are given to them.

Actually, these people are not stupid!

Before Wang Yue left, they had already packed up their things as fast as they could, and then began to flee and hide in the mountains......

They are still very sober about the Jurchens.

Of course, Wang Yue doesn't need to care about these.

On the morning of the third day, the retreating army completed its formation outside Liaoyang City.

In the innermost part were women and children riding donkeys, mules and inferior horses, as well as a large number of ploughing oxen and pack horses and even a small number of camels carrying supplies, and then in the outer circle were those young men on horses and weapons, some of whom had even been armed with armor, and then in the outer circle were 26,000 elite cavalry, and the desperate resistance of the Jurchens and the powerful in the city caused 4,000 casualties to this expeditionary force.

This is indispensable.

After all, they killed more than 40,000 people in the city.

In this way, the migratory armies began to sweep across the moorland that was still covered in snow.

On their periphery, reinforcements from Shenzhou and other places had also appeared, but in total there were less than a thousand Jurchen cavalry, and then a few thousand Bohai and Han servants.

Originally, they tried to attack.

But Yang Zaixing took Wang Yue's guards, and after killing more than 300 Jurchen cavalry in a surprise attack, no one dared to approach again, but Li Shifu, who was very unconvinced to watch him show off his might, rushed out with his family to counterattack very arrogantly, and then scattered a group of Bohai cavalry that was too close. So while the cavalry was strictly guarding the formation, these fierce generals began a competition, and even Chi Zhanhui personally led hundreds of elites to defeat a Han cavalry.

This huge army, which no longer needed to hide, simply chose a straight line, and the next morning they crossed the Liao River again.

Then the enemy forces in Liaoxi also appeared.

After the surrender of the western Liaoning states, the Jurchens have actually forcibly relocated a large number of surviving population, such as Qianzhou in the north of Jinzhou, which is basically no longer empty, and the entire Liao State was originally a population of more than 10 million. The Han and Bohai people in the prefectures and counties to which Wujing belongs together are only less than 900,000 households, plus the Khitan, Xi, and Jurchen tribes, that is, 15.6 million households, and so far, since the official start of the Aguda army, they have been fighting for eight years.

It has been six years since the defeat of the Liao army in the Battle of Hubu Dagang and the Jurchens began to move south.

How many people are alive!

In other words, the remaining population in the entire area may not be as large as Wang Yue's group!

With the cavalry that came here and there, who would dare to provoke a cavalry legion of 30,000 or 40,000 people?

It's just a matter of following from afar.

There are even those who have their homeland in mind to simply come to surrender, including some Khitan escapees who have wandered in this area before.

In the end, Wang Yue spent another six days returning to Jinzhou.

At this time, his total number not only did not decrease, but increased by more than a thousand.

"Yan Gong is really a god and a man!"

On the bank of the Daling River, Han Qingmin, who came to greet him, exclaimed with a look of adoration.

"It's just a trivial matter, but we have to make it clear first, the Khitans in these mouths are yours, and the rest will all belong to me."

Wang Yue said.

He did not bring the Khitans in Liaoyang, but there were more than 2,000 people who took refuge on the way, all of whom were originally nomadic on both sides of the Liaohe River.

"This is nature, everything is under the orders of Yan Gong!"

Han Qingmin said.

"Also, I have to lead the army back immediately, and the marshal has to continue to hold on to Jinzhou, if the cold ground is freezing today, your lord will not be able to counterattack, and the marshal needs to hold on until after the beginning of spring, even if the war goes well, I am afraid it will have to pass the summer, and I have to rely on the marshal here." But don't worry about the food in the future, as long as the sea thaws, my ship can transport the grain directly to Jinzhou, at that time, even if your ministry does not farm, Wang will not starve you loyal. ”

Wang Yue said.

"Yan Gong rest assured, he has been sticking to it for all these years, and he doesn't care about another year and a half.

In fact, this winter is the most difficult, in the spring and summer, when the rivers thaw and the floods surge, the Jurchens rarely attack, not to mention the help of Brother Zhongming. ”

Han Qingmin said to Chi Zhanhui with a smile.

"Yes, don't worry, Gong Yan, Gong Han's back will be handed over to me!"

Chi Zhanhui said.

By this time, he had completely changed his position......

Anyone who watched the scene of Wang Yue dragging a two-hundred-pound grinder as a meteor hammer would hardly have the courage to have a different heart for him!

Not to mention that it will blow up.

There was no city to defend in front of Wang Yue, and he betrayed Wang Yue, and the result could only be that Wang Yue killed his children and grandchildren as hostages, and then broke through Laizhou to wash his whole family in blood. On the contrary, loyal to Wang Yue, even if the Jurchens sent troops to attack him, in the case of Han Qingmin and Zhang Ying blocking the north and south, they could only send a partial division of several thousand people from Zhongjing through the mountains and mountains as before, and attack without logistical support. In the face of such an enemy, as long as he can hold on to his heart, then he will be appreciated by Wang Yue, and then his family will continue to be rich and prosperous under Wang Yue.

He's a bastard with no discipline.

But it's the wallgrass that's the shrewdest.

He is not a pure greedy wall grass who is afraid of death, in fact, this guy is also a fierce general on the battlefield, he and Han Chang are the right-hand men of Jin Wushu in the Battle of Fuping, and they were lured into the swamp by Liu Kuang, and finally they still fought hard with their subordinates.

He's just shrewd in his calculations of interests.

"Okay, there are two in Da Liao, and this revival is just around the corner!"

Wang Yue said with satisfaction.

In that case, he doesn't have to worry about it.

Isn't it just holding on for another half a year, who knows what will happen after half a year, even if Tianzuo's counterattack fails, it is possible to be captured alive by the Jurchens.

At that time, it was a big deal to give these people a new hope.

Yelu Dashi's sons are still in Yanshan, his five sons are all there, and they have recognized Wang Yue as their godfather, once Emperor Tianzuo is captured, Yelu Dashi will definitely stand on his own in Kedun City, and at that time it is just right for Yelu Dashi's sons to lead them.

What's more, there was originally a son of Tianzuo who escaped in history, that is, the Shenli regime that lasted for less than a year.

On the Hulunbuir steppe.

Therefore, the hope of these remnants of the Great Liao will not be broken.

Anyway, there are food, drink and dreams, they are supported by dreams, continue to fight here, all of them should raise an ancestor here, as long as there is food and drink, and the logistics supply is sufficient, Zu Dashou can also stick to it, not to mention that Han Qingmin's loyalty to Da Liao must far exceed Zu Dashou's loyalty to Daming......

Wang Yue only rested for five days in Jinzhou.

The main reason is that the food here is limited, although there is a lot of grain in Liaoyang, but because there are not many livestock transported, so he only brought food on the road, so when he walked to Jinzhou, many livestock had to slow down and look for food in the snow that began to melt. And this tens of thousands of people in Jinzhou, the daily consumption of grain is a very terrifying number, it is estimated that it will not take long to eat up the grain here, in fact, he has to slaughter those sick livestock to make food.

So you can't stay too long.

Fortunately, at this time, the snow in the south of Jinzhou has basically melted, and the grass that was originally covered by heavy snow is exposed, and those livestock can find food by themselves, and they don't need to feed extra feed if they don't fight, so they don't need to feed them anymore, so they don't need to feed the livestock.

And Chizhan Hui also did her best to ensure their supply.

Even Wang Yue took a group of people and went directly to the beach to hunt those innocent seals.

It is said that he finally extended his claws to these cute animals, but this is indeed a good business in the future, allowing Han Qingmin and others to make money by killing seals, and this hat will save the harm to the dogs.

In this way, the migrating army continued to move forward, slowing down one station after another along the western Liaoning corridor, and finally left Yuguan in mid-February and arrived at the new city of Pingzhou, where Zhang Ying had personally led people to greet him, and then he brought Wang Yue a bad news......

Newcastle.

"I relieved the siege of Taiyuan for the official family, risked death to lead a lone expedition, and fought bloodily to break through Liaoyang, but the official family connived at the Jurchen to attack my Yanshan City in the back? Is this the reward for the loyalty of the officials? ”

Wang Yue said sadly with a look on his loyal minister's unjust face.

Well, his Yanshan City was surrounded.

Ten days ago, Aguta personally led an army of 100,000 people, and suddenly took the Flying Fox Road to kill, Yizhou, Zhuozhou surrendered without a fight, and then the Jurchen army crossed the Sanggan River to surround Yanshan City, and the Song army on the southern front watched from the wall, and did not send a single soldier to attack the Jurchen army. Even the news that Zhang Ying just got, during this period, the Song army also sent troops to try to recapture Qingzhou, but was repelled by Shi Jin, who stayed in Qingzhou, and Zhang Ying blocked the news very smartly, so the news of the siege of Yanshan City has not yet come out of Yuguan.

"The official family, the official family is indeed a little chilling!"

Zhang Ying sighed.
