Yuezhou, Huiji.

"Liu Guangshi is a stupid talent, he is not enough to succeed and more than to lose!"

Inside the handsome tent, Wang Yuan's face was full of anger, and he kicked over the wooden table.

This guy actually ran away, leading 18,000 people and a large number of grain and grass to flee to Fujian.

When he ran, he not only gave up the two Zhejiang roads, but also sold himself, how could Wang Yuan not be angry?

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Qi army is all northerners, and they cannot tolerate the humid and hot environment in the south, and many soldiers are sick because they are not accustomed to water and soil, resulting in the two-front offensive being forced to stagnate.

As the time gradually enters the summer, it will only become more and more unfavorable to the Qi army.

As a result, Liu Guangshi ran away without saying a word.

After the anger, Wang Yuan stepped in front of the map and pondered the countermeasures.

At that moment, there was a commotion outside the tent.

Wang Yuan frowned, he didn't like it in his heart, and before he could ask a question, he saw a group of deputy generals, partial generals, and Du Yuhou breaking into the tent.

Wang Yuan's face was gloomy, and he scolded: "Why is there any noise in the army? ”

His prestige in the army was still very high, and everyone's faces changed slightly, and they immediately turned their eyes to the deputy general Yang Yizhong.

Yang Yizhong is the grandson of Yang Zongmin, and his ancestor is Yang Ye Yang Invincible.

As the flag-bearer of the Yang family's generation, he is now only serving as a deputy general under Wang Yuan, which shows that the Yang family has indeed declined.

Yang Yizhong took a step forward and arched his hand: "Now that Your Majesty has been captured, the Emperor Taishang is missing, and Liu Guangshi led his troops to Fujian, ignoring me, and asking General Wang to make a decision as soon as possible!" ”

Hearing this, Wang Yuan sighed: "For today's plan, we can only retreat to Fujian and make arrangements after meeting with the Emperor Taishang." ”

When the words fell, Yang Yi and other generals were silent.

Wang Yuan chuckled in his heart, and secretly said that it was not good.

Sure enough, after a moment of silence, Yang Yizhong said: "General Wang, most of the generals in the army are from Jiangnan, and it is okay in Liangzhejiang, but if you go to Fujian, I am afraid that if you are reluctant and forcefully act, I am afraid that it will cause a mutiny." ”

Wang Yuan's expression changed, and he heard the threat implied in Yang Yizhong's words.

At this time, the guards behind him pointed at Yang Yi and scolded angrily: "Do you want to rebel?" ”

However, Yang Yizhong didn't look at the guards, stared at Wang Yuan, and said with a sincere expression: "General Wang, the lowly and the soldiers in the army respect you, but many of you are from the north, and you have been away from home for several years, and you are homesick, and you ask General Wang to think about the brothers." ”

Most of the Song army was a southern forbidden army, but almost all the generals were northerners.

Yang Yizhong's family is still in the city of Tokyo, and I am afraid that I will never see him in my life when I go to Fujian.

The country and the country are firmly bound together.

"General Wang, your subordinates have followed you since the time of the northwest, and it has been eight years now, the old mother at home is old, the young son is still young, and the subordinates have not returned to their hometown in Shandong for four years, I am afraid that the child has long forgotten my father." A Duyu Marquis choked up and said.

Looking around at the crowd, Wang Yuan smiled bitterly.

The Great Song Dynasty has exhausted its numbers, and the general trend has gone.

He knew in his heart that homesickness was only one of them, and on the other hand, His Majesty was captured alive, which was too great a blow to the soldiers.

Even if he retreated to Fujian, with the geographical advantages of Fujian and Lingnan, what could he do to block the Qi army?

Instead of suffering in the wilderness, it is better to vote for the Qi country, and they are also sons of the Han family, so they can't be treated harshly.

It's miserable enough to be a soldier in the Great Song Dynasty, is it possible that it is not as good as the Great Song Dynasty in the Qi Kingdom?

Thinking of this, Wang Yuan said dejectedly: "That's it, I will repair a book and send it to Hangzhou, and I will bear the infamy." ”

"Thank you, General!"

Yang Yizhong's faces were happy, and they all bowed down to thank them.

Alas!

Wang Yuan sighed in his heart, and under the gaze of everyone, he picked up his pen and wrote a letter of surrender.

He was also forced to be helpless this time, and today these generals dared to break into the commander's tent, which shows that he has made all preparations.

If good words and persuasion don't work, you have to borrow your own head.

After a short time, a letter of surrender was written and handed over to the guards to be sent to Hangzhou.

……

Hangzhou City.

As one of the main tax-paying places in the Zhao and Song dynasties, Liangzhejiang is naturally richer than Shandong and other places.

As the seat of the two Zhejiang roads, Hangzhou has smooth transportation, and is backed by Hangzhou Bay, with developed fisheries and sea trade, and has the reputation of the first state in the southeast, which is better than Jinling.

At this time, the city of Hangzhou was in a depression.

The shadow of the war plague hung over the hearts of the people like a dark cloud.

The whole of Hangzhou is under military management, and grain and grass materials are uniformly distributed and distributed.

In the town of Xixing, fifteen miles outside Hangzhou, 10,000 navies led by Kuang Zixin were stationed here.

The offensive of the Qi army was not as smooth as imagined, Hangzhou has many water networks, although the Qi navy is good at water warfare, but the problem is that there are no ships.

The Shenzhou warship group can gallop the sea, but it can't sail into the narrow inland water network and river, so it can only stare dryly.

Passenger ships are okay, but the number is too small, a Shenzhou battleship group is only equipped with two passenger ships, and the attack on Song used four Shenzhou battleship groups, adding up to only eight passenger ships.

Although the tonnage of the ships under Wang Yuan's navy division was not as large as that of passenger ships, they were more flexible in inland waterways, and there were hundreds of them.

Coupled with the rainy days, Kuang Zixin had to suspend the offensive and recruit craftsmen to build ships.

On the banks of the Qiantang River, docks have risen one after another.

Batches of timber were sent down the river to the docks, where they were processed and became a part of the warship.

After Kuang Zixin finished inspecting the dock, he set up his horse and returned to the barracks.

Before he had time to rest, the guards hurriedly greeted him, and said with excitement on his face: "General, Wang Yuan has descended!" ”

"Huh?"

Kuang Zixin was stunned for a moment, and then said with great joy: "Really? ”

"Absolutely."

The guard nodded vigorously, pointed to the handsome tent and said, "Just now Wang Yuan sent someone to send a letter of surrender, and now that person is in the handsome tent." ”

Hearing this, Kuang Zixin walked quickly towards the handsome tent.

Walking into the handsome tent, I saw a Song Jun dressed in red lacquer armor.

Kuang Zixin asked, "Who is you?" ”

Song Jun replied: "I am Zhao Qian, the halberd captain under General Wang." ”

The official position of school captain rarely appeared in the Song Dynasty, and it belonged to the lowest-level military officer.

Generally, most of them are the personal guards of the generals.

When Jin Yu invaded China in the south, Zhang Shuye of Dengzhou was the king of Qin, who organized the righteous army, and once played: begging to surrender... The lieutenant and the lieutenant each have 300 posts, and they are willing to buy them according to the price.

In other words, a lieutenant is an official position that a civilian can buy with money.

But not many people are willing to buy it, the military officials of the Northern Song Dynasty, and the dogs are not appropriate, not to mention that they are still the lowest grade.

With this money, isn't it good to buy a civil and prose official who doesn't enter the stream?

During the period of Zhao Er, two systems of gifting officials and buying officials were established, but fortunately, Zhao Er's Qing was not completely dizzy, and the officials who sold were just a name, without any rights, and without money, belonged to the exiled officials, just to meet the psychology of some wealthy businessmen and landlords to show off, and to enrich the treasury, why not?

Kuang Zi Xinyi stretched out his hand: "Where is the surrender book?" ”

"Please take a look, General."

Zhao Qian took out the surrender letter from his arms, and presented it with his complicated hands.

After taking the letter of persuasion and reading it, Kuang Zixin couldn't hide the joy on his face, and ordered: "You wait a while, Ben will send someone back with you." ”

He was afraid that something would happen if it dragged on, so he immediately arranged for his soldiers to go to Huiji to receive the army under Wang Yuan's command.

After Zhao Qian left, Kuang Zixin wrote another battle report, handed it over to the herald army together with Wang Yuan's surrender letter, and sent it to Kaifeng Mansion for 800 miles.
