Chapter 206: Zhang Jun is greedy for merit
The movement of Jin Guo was like a stone thrown into still water, which aroused the ripples in Zhao Yingluo's heart. She sat on the dragon chair, her eyes as deep as the sea, as if she could see all the hypocrisy and truth in the world. She had already noticed Jin Guo's ambitions, but she didn't expect this day to come so quickly.
"Pass the order," Zhao Yingluo's voice was firm and powerful, "order Zhang Junbu, who is stationed in Lanzhou, to strengthen vigilance, and be sure to defend it tightly, and there must be no mistakes." ”
As her order was conveyed, the entire Great Song court took action.
Zhao Zhen was entrusted with an important task, and went west out of Kaifeng to Chang'an to garrison.
At the same time, Yue Fei, who was stationed in Xingzhou, also received an order.
He sent elite scouts to infiltrate the territory of the Kingdom of Jin to investigate the movements of the army.
Yue Fei was dressed in military uniform, standing on top of the city tower, overlooking the vast land in the north. His heart was full of worry, but he was also full of fighting spirit.
In spring and March, wheat grows wildly, and the fields are full of green. However, this peaceful scene was shattered by the wolf ambitions of the Jin Kingdom.
Wanyan Zonghan, the male lord of the Jin country, finally ordered to send troops!
The Great Xia Kingdom on the western road sent troops to attack Chang'an, and they pounced on the ancient and fortified city like a pack of hungry wolves. The Jin army in the middle of the road gathered 300,000 elite soldiers, vowing to take Xingzhou and advance southward! Their iron hooves trampled across the earth, raising a cloud of dust, as if they were about to swallow the entire Great Song Dynasty.
On the East Road, under the instigation of Wanyan Zongfu, Liu Yu ascended the throne again and became emperor.
He stood on top of the tower of Jinan City, looking at the black army below, his heart was full of pride and ecstasy.
He finally became emperor again, controlling his own destiny and the lives and deaths of countless people.
He had a smile on his face and a crazy glint in his eyes.
"Raise 200,000 troops to attack Lanzhou!" Liu Yu ordered loudly. His voice echoed through the empty tower, as if it was about to shake the whole heavens and the earth.
With his order, an army of 200,000 poured into Lanzhou like a flood of beasts.
Zhang Jun, who replaced Wen Boyuan in Lanzhou, is burly, resolute, and has a pair of bright eyes, as if he can see all the hypocrisy and truth in the world.
Since learning that Liu Yu was going to attack Lanzhou, he began to prepare for the defense in full swing.
However, there was an indescribable resentment in his heart.
"Why is Yue Fei stationed in Xingzhou to resist the Jin Kingdom, while I am arranged here to defend the little Liu Yu?" Zhang Jun muttered dissatisfiedly in his heart. He felt that he was underestimated by Zhao Yingluo and placed in an unimportant position. this
This emotion had been brewing in his heart for a long time, and finally broke out at this moment.
"General, Liu Yu's army has set off, what should we do?" A general stepped forward and asked, breaking the silence.
Zhang Jun came back to his senses, and he took a deep breath and tried to calm his emotions.
He knew that this was not the time to vent his grievances, and he had to be responsible for the safety of Lanzhou.
"Pass the order, 50,000 troops will set off from Shanzhou, and we will snipe Liu Yu's army in Dongping." Zhang Jun calmly ordered, "Let them see, our soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty are not vegetarians!" ”
As Zhang Jun's order was conveyed, the 50,000-strong army was ready to go, and the morale was high.
Before leaving, Zhang Jun gathered all the generals for an urgent military meeting.
"Although Liu Yu has a large number of troops, they must be exhausted after a long journey. We're going to attack them before they can gain a foothold, and we're going to crush them in one fell swoop! Zhang Jun waved the long sword in his hand and said impassionedly.
The army set off.
Zhang Jun is riding on a horse, wearing armor and holding a long sword, he wants Zhao Yingluo to see that he can also fight a tough battle!
Soon after, the army came to the Dongping area.
The terrain here is dangerous, and it is the only way to get to Lanzhou.
Zhang Jun ordered the army to lie in ambush here, waiting for the arrival of Liu Yu's army.
Time passed quickly, and the sun gradually rose overhead.
Suddenly, there was the sound of horses' hooves and shouts in the distance.
Liu Yu's army has finally appeared! They came like a torrent, and the momentum was violent.
"It's coming! Get ready for battle! Zhang Jun ordered loudly. His voice echoed across the empty field, as if it wanted to shake the whole heavens and the earth.
The soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty clenched the weapons in their hands one after another and prepared for battle.
Their eyes were full of determination and determination, as if they were ready to sacrifice everything for the country.
Liu Yu's army was getting closer and closer, and their shouts shook the heavens and the mountains. However, at this moment, Zhang Jun suddenly waved the long sword in his hand and shouted, "Kill!" ”
With his order, the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty pounced on the enemy like tigers descending from the mountain.
Liu Yu's army was taken by surprise.
"Hold on! Resist! Liu Yu shouted loudly, trying to stabilize the morale of the army. However, his shouts were drowned out in a crowd of shouts of killing.
Zhang Jun rushed to the front first. His sword glittered in the sunlight, and each swing took the life of an enemy.
His body was covered in blood and dirt, but he didn't care. There was only one belief in his heart: defeat Liu Yu's army and let Her Royal Highness the Princess see that his combat power was no weaker than Yue Fei.
However, Zhang Jun was eager to win, he only had Liu Yu's back in his eyes and fled in a hurry, and his heart was full of joy and pride of victory. He was desperate to wipe out this enemy once and for all in order to show his prestige and exploits.
So, he did not hesitate to order the pursuit, completely ignoring the cold smile on the corner of Liu Yu's mouth.
Like a tiger descending from a mountain, the army pursued the enemy in front of it.
They made their way through the dense woods, leaving billowing smoke and earth-shattering shouts of slaughter in their wake.
However, just after they chased twenty miles, suddenly, the sound of killing in front of them shook the sky, and an ambush soldier came out from the mountains and forests next to them, like a sharp sword straight into the heart of the Great Song army.
At the same time, with the ambush soldiers, the artillery shells in the sky rained down on the Great Song army.
Explosions, shouts, and neighing of horses rang out, and the entire battlefield instantly turned into a sea of fire.
The soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty were blown up to pieces, suffering heavy casualties, and the entire army fell into chaos and panic.
Zhang Jun saw that Yan Zongfu led the Jin soldiers to kill, and then he woke up like a dream and knew that he had been tricked!
His heart was full of remorse and anger, hating himself for being so reckless and rash, and he didn't see Liu Yu's conspiracy.
He watched his soldiers struggle and wail under the fire, but there was nothing he could do.
"Quick! Retreat! Zhang Jun shouted loudly, however, at this moment, the army had fallen into chaos, and the soldiers were fighting on their own, unable to organize effective resistance.
The Jin soldiers took the opportunity to launch a fierce attack and divided and surrounded the Great Song army, intending to annihilate them one by one.
