This is not a secret, and it can't be hidden, Zhao Ji said loudly: "At present, my sister and the Cao family's business are in Hangzhou and Xiuzhou. ”

Song Huizong and Zhao Ye glanced at each other, which showed that in Yang Zhi's mind, Hangzhou was a safe place. However, Song Huizong understood that most of the people around him were either killed by Song Qinzong or transferred to other places, and now Guo Zhongxun was subject to Gao Yu and would not easily allow their monarchs and ministers to move.

The little eunuch came to report, Lin Lingsu arrived, and Song Huizong smiled: "The stinky Taoist priest has come to cheat again." ”

Lin Lingsu has not left much since he arrived in Runzhou, and he came to chat with Song Huizong's ministers for almost three days; Lin Lingsu came in and saluted everyone one by one, and then said to Song Huizong: "Emperor Taishang, news has come from the Yellow River Gang that Liu Qi and Mi Youren have arrived in Jincheng, but the two of them have brought a person, to be precise, a fugitive. ”

"A fugitive?" Song Huizong suddenly became interested, the master Song Huizong had seen a lot in his life, but he had to admit that Lin Lingsu was a good talker, and he could say fresh topics every time; Song Huizong motioned to the little eunuch to pour wine, and asked with a smile: "What kind of person is it, an invincible general, or an unlucky official?"

Lin Lingsu sat down and said: "A Shaanzhou man named Li Yanxian, when Yan Zongfu invaded Bianjing, Li Yanxian scattered all his wealth, recruited soldiers and horses, and led three thousand strong men to reinforce Kyoto, and was awarded Chengjielang. At that time, Li Gang was ordered to pacify Lianghe, and Li Yanxian wrote to impeach Li Gang for not knowing how to use soldiers, but he was pursued by the Criminal Department and had to change his name and flee. Liu Qi probably received Yang Zhi's letter and had been looking for this person, and finally found him in Shaanzhou and went north together. When he arrived in Jincheng, Yang Zhi appointed Liu Qi and Li Yanxian to replace the original positions of Jia Qiong and Yang Jin and take charge of Tuntian. ”

Empress Dowager Zheng said disappreciatively: "Yang Zhi doesn't pay attention to them either." ”

King Jing Zhao Qi shook his head and said: "The queen mother doesn't know, Yang Zhi occupies half of the Taihang Mountain, and Tuntian is his main source of recruitment among the Han people, who farm and graze in the Taihang Mountain and train the new army. It turned out that Zhang Suo, Yang Jin, Ma Qin, Gongsun Sheng, and others had gathered 60,000 or 70,000 displaced people in Taihang Mountain, and this time Zhang Suo and Yang Jin relied on this force to enter Hebei; as Zhang Suo gained a foothold in Xingzhou and other places, there would be more people who fled into Taihang Mountain, and Yang Zhi's arrangement was precisely his trust in Liu Qi and Li Yanxian.

Jia Qiong is now the general judge of Huozhou Prefecture, and is actually in charge of the material deployment of Huozhou, Guzhou, Xuzhou, and Beifeng Prefecture, and is almost half a transfer envoy; Yang Jin led 10,000 soldiers and civilians out of Taihang Mountain, and is currently the commander of Xingzhou's soldiers and horses, which is equivalent to one eye of Yang Zhi's faction in Hebei. The advantage of Yang Zhi's arrangement is that Liu Qi and Li Yanxian can organize and train the army among the displaced people, which will not arouse the disgust of the old man, and I am afraid that in the future, like Jia Qiong and Yang Jin, they will be sent to the front line to attack the city and seize the land. ”

Zhao Qi talked eloquently, not only knowing Yang Zhi's arrangements in the clouds, but also seeing through Yang Zhi's intentions; Zhao Ye, Lin Lingsu and others nodded frequently, which made Song Huizong very pleased, and raised his glass and said: "Qi'er has this insight, if he has the opportunity, he is also a thousand-mile horse like your third brother." ”

However, regarding the behavior of the seed masters Min and Zong Ze, Song Huizong Junchen, like everyone, thought that the Dingbei Army was still cowardly because of the lack of troops, and was reluctant to consume the army. One by one, they couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, even if Lin Lingsu said two jokes, the meal and wine were still hastily over; Song Huizong and Zhao Ye went to the study alone, and Song Huizong asked Zhao Ye: "What do you think about coming back in such a hurry?"

Zhao Ye shook his head and said: "I originally planned to go to Zhengzhou and master a part of the army, but now I see, if Bianliang can't hold it, Lianghuai will be the battlefield, and Jiangnan will be the last foundation of the Great Song Dynasty." Emperor Taishang, for the sake of the country, we must prepare early. ”

Song Huizong bowed his head and said: "Don't worry, wait a minute, don't spoil the emperor's affairs at the moment, you just stay in Runzhou, and I will send a letter to the emperor." ”

Zhao Ye fell to his knees, kowtowed and said, "The minister obeys the order." ”

In the southwest of Luzhou, Sanzhuigang, dawn, the snow has just stopped for a day, there is a thick fog everywhere, the Dingbei army is quietly approaching Santui gang from all directions, Sun Ang and Huang You, who opened the way, have already pried open the camp of the Jin army; three fireworks suddenly took off, the Dingbei army immediately launched a fierce attack, countless rockets were fired into the Jin camp, and the shouts shook the sky.

Whether it was Wanyan Ba Suli in Luzhou or Wanyan Huonu in Pingyang Mansion, after the Dingbei Army contracted the defensive line, they all despised their opponents a little. Who knew that Zong Ze posed an illusion, and quietly let the team brought back by the seed master Min take over the defense of Fenzhou Mansion, and the seed master Min, Sun Ang, and Wen Da led 40,000 troops and horses to quietly march into Luzhou, enter the three vertical posts, and wait until the early hours of the morning, and sneak attack the Jin army Dazhai in the fog.

The Jin army was lax on guard, and was suddenly attacked by the Dingbei army in its sleep, seeing that the military camp was already a sea of fire, and suddenly panicked and collapsed, and the 15,000 people who stayed in Luzhou only had 4,000 cavalry, and more than 10,000 Song troops surrendered to the army, and they suddenly fell into a panic after the surprise attack of the Dingbei army. Taking advantage of the situation, the Dingbei army divided its troops into two routes, the division Min led his troops to attack the northwest corner, and Sun Ang led his army to attack the northeast corner, filled the ditch and burned the village, beat drums and shouted to enter, and the Jin army was defeated;

Wanyan Basuoli only had time to concentrate 3,000 cavalry, and when he went out, he was surrounded by the cavalry of the 5,000 Dingbei Army commanded by Wenda, and the Jin army showed extremely high combat effectiveness, and in less than an hour he killed and repelled almost two generations of Dingbei cavalry;

The division Min locked the cart with iron chains, so that the cavalry could not easily break through, and the direction of the retreat of the cavalry of the Northern Army, both sides were the positions of the divine arm bow, and Wanyan was so defeated that he had nothing to say, so he could only choose to break through in the southwest direction, and he lost more than 1,000 people to break out of the encirclement, and under the pursuit of the Dingbei Army, there were only 2,000 horsemen left. In this battle, tens of thousands of soldiers of the Jin army were lost, and countless grains and equipment were discarded; after Yan Ba left quickly, almost only the original officials of the Great Song Dynasty who surrendered to the Jin State remained, and the seed master Min divided his troops to attack, and it did not take much effort to occupy the entire territory of Delong Mansion.

Wanyan Huonu learned that Luzhou was lost, Xu Huiyan took 60,000 soldiers and civilians to the south, and Zhang Hao joined forces to attack Pingyang Mansion, Wanyan Huonu only symbolically resisted for a long time, and then led the whole army to retreat; Wan Yan Gao had already guessed this possible situation, and he was not in a hurry, since ancient times, if he wanted to hold Hedong, he had to hold Luzhou, and if the Dingbei Army did not take the opportunity to stabilize its territory in Hedong, it would be an incredible thing.
