"More than 600 people were injured. There were more than 500 minor injuries, all arrow wounds and gunshot wounds, and he was fine after two or three days of rest. Nearly 100 were seriously injured, except for those who fell off the horse and were trampled on, they were smashed by blunt objects. ”

"Most of the dozens of seriously wounded soldiers have broken bones, it depends on how well they recover."

"Killed in battle...... More than eighty people. ”

After listening to the battle report, Zhang Guangdao couldn't help frowning: "Twice as many troops, flanking on three sides, or luring the enemy to set up an ambush, actually suffered such a large number of casualties?" ”

The captives had already been interrogated, and it was known that it was Guo Yaoshi who was beaten.

Guo Yaoshi's troops are so powerful, so can the elite of the Jin soldiers still have it?

If it were replaced by officers and soldiers, they would have collapsed on the spot if they were ambushed by the rebels like this. In that case, the casualties of the rebels were in the double digits at most, and most of them were minor.

Zhang Guangdao had only fought with officers and soldiers, and now he suddenly confronted the Jin people, and he was already frightened.

The main thing is that I don't know what the situation of the enemy army is!

Yu Dian, whose neck was bandaged with gauze, said with palpitations: "Pharmacist Guo is really a fierce general, he has a lot of strength, and the speed of shooting is fast, I was almost stabbed to death." The cavalry under him were also fierce and fearless of death, and they were also very difficult to deal with. ”

When these words were spoken, the generals present all had solemn expressions, and the next battle was very difficult to fight.

Deng Chun has always been silent, and at this moment he spoke out to reassure: "Not all the cavalry under the command of Guo Yaoshi are not afraid of death. Most of them collapsed on the spot, and they only knew how to flee on horseback. The really powerful ones are the hundreds of soldiers around Guo Yaoshi, and it is estimated that the real Jin soldiers are like this. ”

"I hope so." Chen Ziyi muttered.

Zhang Guangdao smiled and boosted morale: "No matter how powerful the Jin soldiers are, can they still have three heads and six arms?" Since they all have a head and two arms, are you afraid of his eggs? The enemy is desperate, and we can fight too! ”

……

The rebels were confused by the combat effectiveness of the Jin soldiers, and the Jin soldiers were also pondering this issue.

"Can Song Bing still be so elite?" Wanyan Zongwang asked, "What kind of banner are you flying?" ”

Guo Yaoshi said: "The military flag is 'Tengxiang', and the general flag is the word 'Deng', these are the cavalry that lured me." As for the cavalry that came out of the woods, the military flag was 'Wu Xiang', and the general flag was the word 'Chen'. ”

Wanyan Zongwang asked: "Among the Song army, can there be two armies, Tengxiang and Wuxiang?" And what are the fierce generals surnamed Deng and Chen? ”

"It seems that there is," Pharmacist Guo shook his head in confusion, and added, "Maybe there is, but I haven't heard of it." ”

"Immediately go arrest and ask!"

Wanyan Zongwang finally paid attention to it, not to mention how much he wanted to know about the enemy, at least he had to find out who the main general on the other side was.

Under the noses of the defenders of Tokyo, two or three thousand Jinguo cavalry rushed to the residential areas outside the city and began to arrest people.

Many people have fled with their families, and some have even gone to seek refuge with Zhang Guangdao.

Zhu Ming had opened a coal shop in the southern suburbs, and nearby residents had seen him. The residents of that large area went south to join the rebels, claiming to be Zhu Tanhua's old man, and begged Zhang Guangdao to give them food and let them help carry the supplies.

But most of the people outside the city can't leave, they have to work every day, or they will go hungry.

Jin Bing rushed to the residential area, did not trouble the people at the bottom, and only arrested the shopkeeper and shopkeeper.

Because they are the most knowledgeable in business, most of the people in Shengdou can't ask for news.

Dozens of people were questioned one after another, and they all said that they were Zhu Tanhua's soldiers.

"Zhu Tanhua ......"

Of course, Wanyan Zongwang had heard of Zhu Ming, who was a messenger to Song Huizong to congratulate him on his birthday, and brought the news back to the Jin Kingdom.

But he only knew that Zhu Ming occupied Sichuan, and he was from Jinshi, and other things were completely unclear.

Shi Liai suggested: "You can send a messenger to contact Zhu Thief and ask him what his intentions are." Or you can use high-ranking officials to buy him to besiege Kaifeng together. ”

Wanyan Zongwang shook his head: "After eating a defeated battle, but going to buy this person, he will be rampant and difficult to cure." You have to beat the Zhu thief and let him know how powerful Dajin is, so that he can really accept it for his own use. Of course, the messenger still has to be sent to touch the person's reality. Who wants to send an envoy to find out the news? ”

Shi Liai said: "I am willing to go." ”

Wanyan Zongwang said: "Sir, don't take risks, this kind of trivial matter will be changed to someone else." ”

A young man stood up: "I'll go for my father!" ”

"Very well, there you go." Wanyan Zongwang smiled approvingly.

This man's name is Shi Yan, and he is Shi Liai's eldest son.

……

Palace.

A eunuch ran in, and Zhao Huan hurriedly asked, "Who loses and who wins?" ”

The eunuch replied, "Your Majesty, I don't know who won." I only knew that the Zhu thief retreated south, and the gold thief quickly chased after him. Just now, there were also golden soldiers who went outside the city to arrest the people, and they didn't know what they were going to do. ”

Li Gang said: "Your Majesty, the Jin Kingdom has only come to the Eastern Route Army at present, and the Zhu Thief has only sent twenty or thirty thousand forwards. No matter who wins or loses, no matter who wins, can't see the result, and after ten months, the two sides will definitely gather two or three hundred thousand troops to confront each other. The imperial court should take the opportunity to train its troops, and no matter who wins in the end, the officers and soldiers can hold on to the capital. ”

"This is the words of seeking the country!" He Su had already returned from out of town, arriving in Tokyo before the Jin soldiers crossed the river, and he was now the boss of the imperial historians.

Li Bangyan was a little anxious: "You have to know who wins this battle, so that you know which side has a greater chance of winning, and the follow-up peace talks can also be divided into priorities." ”

In fact, everyone wanted to know the result, and Wu Min proposed: "It's better to send an envoy to Jinying and Zhuying to find out the truth." ”

"Yes," Bai Shizhong immediately agreed, "By the way, ask what they really want if there is a peace talk." Well...... When the minister said this, he did not want to surrender in fear of the enemy, but in order to know himself and the other in order not to fall behind in future peace talks. ”

"Who wants to?" Zhao Huan asked.

The ministers stopped talking for a moment.

Of course, it's no problem to go to the camp of the Zhu thief, but the Jin soldiers are stopped in the middle, what if they are caught by the Jin people on the way?

Li Gang, Wu Min, Nie Shan and others are even more unlikely to go out of the city, they have the heavy responsibility of guarding Tokyo.

He Su was waiting for Mao Sui to recommend himself with a wat board, but Zhao Huan had already begun to name him: "Deputy Prime Minister Zhang will go to Jinying, and Huang will go to Zhuying." ”

Zhang Bangchang and Huang Qianshan were like mourning examiners, as if they were selected to be sent to death.

Zhang Bangchang said with a sad face: "Your Majesty, the minister is the deputy minister. For such trivial matters, another foreigner can be assigned. ”

Zhao Huan was furious, slapped the seat and said, "Is it a trivial matter that the thieves are all in the city?" What is your heart? ”

Zhang Bangchang wanted to speak and stopped, and finally said weakly: "The minister obeys the order." ”

Huang Qianshan looked at the emperor and then at Zhang Bangchang, and also followed to receive the order.

Everyone knows that the emperor is taking revenge!

Li Gang really wanted to advise, it's such a time, and the monarch shouldn't be rash.

But it was said that Zhang Bangchang rode out of the city on horseback and went straight to Jinying.

Huang Qianshan rode west, circled around half the county, and then went south to find Zhang Guangdao, for fear that he would be caught by Jin Bing halfway.

Zhang Bangchang understood his intentions and was soon taken to see Yan Zongwang.

"The land of clouds is all owned by the Jin Kingdom, and another 200,000 yuan is added every year, can the second prince withdraw his troops?" Zhang Bangchang casually threw out a condition, but in fact, he had nothing to say, he knew that it was impossible to succeed.

Wanyan Zongwang sneered: "Your Excellency is not here to tease me?" ”

Zhang Bangchang hurriedly explained: "Don't dare, this is the meaning of my country's monarchs and ministers, not what I said alone." ”

There was a Zhu thief who came to stir up the situation, Wanyan Zongwang didn't think much about fighting now, and really made a condition: "Cedion the three towns of Taiyuan, Zhongshan, and Hejian, as well as one million yuan and 500,000 stone grain!" Take out these, and a certain will naturally retire. ”

Zhang Bangchang said: "These three towns are not trivial, I dare not speak falsely, I have to go back to report to the court." The monarchs and ministers in the court all want to surrender to the Zhu thieves in the south, and I am afraid that they will not be willing to cede the land to the Jin State. ”

"What is a thief?" Wanyan Zongwang bluffed, "Yesterday, I sent a thousand iron horsemen, and I killed tens of thousands of Zhu thieves and fled. ”

Zhang Bangchang believed it and was immediately shocked.

Back in the city, Zhang Bangchang reported truthfully, and exaggerated the results of the Jin soldiers, saying: "The Jin people only sent out a thousand horses, and they killed tens of thousands of Zhu thieves and fled." ”

Li Bangyan said: "This Bijin people are intimidating and liarizing. ”

Zhao Ye said: "Maybe it's true, the Jin people can defeat the Liao soldiers, the Liao soldiers can defeat the officers and soldiers, and the Zhu thieves can also defeat the officers and soldiers." The army of the Zhu thief may be comparable to the combat strength of the Liao soldiers, and it is not the opponent of the Jin people. ”

This is very reasonable, the logic is clear and rigorous, and even Li Gang agrees with it, after all, Zhu Thief has only fought with officers and soldiers.

If Song Huizong was the emperor, Zhao Ye would never dare to say such a thing, because he directly admitted that the officers and soldiers were rubbish!

But Zhao Huan, the new monarch, has no prestige at all, and the ministers can say whatever they want.

Li Bangyan couldn't help but mutter, if Zhu Ming's troops really didn't fight, how should he make a choice?

Nie Shan said: "Huang Shizhi hasn't come back yet, and it's not too late to draw conclusions when he comes back." ”

Li Gang said: "Regardless of whether the Jin soldiers defeated the Zhu thief or not, they must not cede the three towns of Taiyuan, Zhongshan, and Hejian. If these three towns are lost, there will be no northern barrier, and the Jin people will come if they want to come in the future, and the Great Song Sheji will never have peace! ”

Zhao Huan looked at Geng Nanzhong, and then at Li Bangyan.

Li Bangyan quietly suggested that all the west of Tongguan be ceded to Zhu Ming, which was much more ruthless than the Jin people.

When Zhao Huan discussed with Geng Nanzhong, Geng Nanzhong was noncommittal, only saying that he needed to wait and see how the situation changed, and the matter of ceding land and seeking peace could not be said.

Wu Min followed to oppose the land cution: "The ancestral inheritance, don't lose it at our hands!" ”

Zhao Huan hurriedly appeased: "I'm not waiting for a faint king." ”

In the city of Tokyo, the monarchs and ministers waited for Huang Qianshan to come back, wanting to know who had won.

But Huang Qianshan went south around half of the county, how could he come back soon?

At this moment, Zhu Ming finally came with a large army and joined Zhang Guangdao north of Xianping County (Tongxu).

And the first Qinwang army, under the leadership of Zhang Shuye, gradually approached Kaifeng.

At the beginning of the Jin soldiers' southward journey, Zhang Shuye once went up and asked to lead the troops to cut off the Jin soldiers' retreat and let the Western Army go to Qinwang to defend Kaifeng. In this way, the Western Army dragged the Jin soldiers to the point of running out of food, and Zhang Shuye led the troops to cut off the way back, which could wipe out the entire Jin soldiers who were alone in the depths.

Song Huizong did not listen, appointed Zhang Shuye as the governor of the host capital, and hurriedly led troops to Kaifeng Qinwang.

Zhang Shuye's troops are really quite a lot, a total of more than 30,000 people, half of them are township soldiers, and the other half are anti-thieves from Zhao'an. Whether it is an anti-thief or a village soldier, they all have at least one year of combat experience.

In order to deal with Zhu Ming's army, Wanyan Zongwang led the whole army to the south, and only sent scattered cavalry to the east of Kaifeng, and by the way, he went to grab the newly harvested wheat of the people.

Uncle Zhang fought with his two sons and successfully came to the outside of Tokyo.

Zhao Huan was overjoyed when he heard this, and personally went out of Chaoyangmen to meet him.

Chaoyang Gate is the outer city gate!

The tide of battle is becoming more and more complicated.

Now in the city of Tokyo, there are a total of 50,000 troops, and the commanders are Li Gang, Zhang Shuye, Liang Fangping and others.

Zhu Ming came to the south in person, and the famous generals in history came Wang Yu, Wang Yuan, Han Shizhong, He Ji, Wang Xun, Chong Yanchong and others.

Jin Bing was sandwiched in the middle, Wanyan Zongwang, Wanyan Zongbi (Jin Wushu), Wanyan Zongjun, Wanyan Tart, Wanyan Yanmu, Guo Yaoshi, Liu Yanzong......
