Chapter 823: Dingbei

With all the Jurchen warriors behind him killed, Wanyan Lou Room braved the rain of arrows and rushed to the front of the Song army's formation, just a dozen steps away from the Song army, Wanyan Lou Room had been shot into a hedgehog, unwilling to use a spear to support the ground, to death. After seeing Yan Lou's room for dozens of breaths without moving, he cautiously rushed out of the position with more than 20 horsemen, and after confirming that the deceased was Wanyan Lou's room, he sent someone to inform Yang Zhi, and soon a shout sounded all over the mountains: "Wanyan Lou is dead, Wanyan Lou is dead." ”

Wanyan Lou Room was an invincible general in the Jin army, and suddenly the mountains and fields were discolored, and the last bit of morale of the Jin army was disintegrated, and only one idea was left to escape; in the chase, Wanyan died in the hands of Master Zhiqing, Wanyan Huonu fled with more than 1,000 Jin soldiers, and most of the scattered Jin soldiers were killed or surrendered. Zhao Kai and the others could see clearly that with the fluttering of the flags on Yang Zhigao's heights, Song Jun's actions were actually targeted.

Li Xiaoming breathed a sigh of relief, he was the only one among these people who had never dealt with Yang Zhi, he was a little worried at first, but now he should know it in his heart when he saw the calmness of Tan Zhi and Seed Master Min;

In this battle, the Song army won a complete victory, killing more than 100 golden generals led by Wanyan Lou Mur, Wanyan Xuan, Sali Tu, and Guo Qizhong, killing and burning 12,000 enemy soldiers, capturing more than 2,000 people, capturing 6,000 war horses, more than 1,000 cattle and sheep, and countless weapons and baggage.

Yang Zhi went down the hillside, handed over the Qizi Jia of the four people in Wanyan Lou's room to Zhao Kai, greeted him and said, "The prince is here, we have the backbone in the clouds." ”

Zhao Kai laughed, awarded the Qizi Jia to the seed master Min, Cao Qianli, Liu Xiang, and Wen Da respectively, and said to Yang Zhi: "Yang Zhi, don't play this game with me, you and Cao Qianli and the Shenxiao faction have already planned;

Yang Zhi smiled and said: "The military situation is urgent, and when I get out of Taihang Mountain, I want to go back to Yunzhong, and the war here will subside, and the Jin Kingdom will definitely fight Yelu Yujian first, I must keep Yelu Yujian's troops, let Wang Shan's 5,000 people go to Taiyuan with you, half of the war horses will be left for you, and all the supplies, cattle and sheep prisoners will be left." ”

Zhao Kai understood that Yang Zhi was telling the truth, and also understood that Yang Zhi was showing his attitude to himself and others, indicating that he Yang Zhi did not have any ideas about the future for the time being, and everything was just out of the needs of the northern situation; Zhao Kai smiled and said: "Then that's it, what do you say I should do in Taiyuan?"

Yang Zhi understood that Zhao Kai had not fully entered the role, and was worried that Tan Zhi and others had other plans, Yang Zhi thought for a while and said: "It should be no problem to enter Taiyuan City, and after entering, we must prevent possible attacks on Taihang Mountain and Luzhou. ”

Li Xiaoming was stunned: "Isn't that a teacher?"

Tan Zhi said with a smile: "This matter is easy to do, and it can be done in the name of the Dingbei Marshal Mansion." ”

Dingbei, Zhao Kai read the history books, and in a blink of an eye, he understood the meaning of Yang Zhi and Tan Zhen, so that he could advance and retreat, so as not to make the surrounding Song army unnecessary hostility, Zhao Kai said: "Tan Lao said well, in the name of the Dingbei Marshal's Mansion, the army is called the Dingbei Army." ”

The army went out of Taihang Mountain, Huang Di's men and horses also came to respond, Zhao Kai was overjoyed, he praised Huang Di in public a few words, and set up a banquet to celebrate the night, Zhao Kai still found Yang Zhi alone after the banquet, the two sat on the grass outside the tent under the starry sky, Cao Wanchu was on guard not far away, Zhao Kai asked Yang Zhi: "Your suggestion in the mountains is that you are afraid that someone will ask me to add a yellow robe?"

Yang Zhi nodded and said: "The prince came to Hedong for the sake of the rivers and mountains of the Great Song Dynasty and the people of Li in the Central Plains, this is the great righteousness, our battle with the Jin State will last for a long time, at least to recover Yanyun, and even fight to the Bohai Sea." Without supplies from the south, life will be very difficult, and the most important thing is the people's will. ”

Zhao Kai breathed a sigh of relief, Yang Zhi still had a plan, if the Dingbei Army had Hedong and Yanyun, it would be almost equal to Bianliang; Zhao Kai said apologetically: "I came out in a hurry this time, Yingluo volunteered to stay in Xiuzhou for me, you can rest assured, as long as there is a chance later, I will definitely go to pick Yingluo out." ”

Yang Zhi bowed his head and said, "I understand." ”

Zhao Kai looked at the sky and said, "Zhang Xiaochun and Breeder Min are a little worse, I want to transfer Zong Ze back from Ulzhou, you can recommend a candidate." ”

Yang Zhi thought for a while and said: "It turns out that Zhuozhou's acting Zhizhou Zhang is now in Jincheng, so let him serve as Zhizhou, how about Zong Ying as the supervisor of the soldiers and horses?"

Zhao Kai agreed, Yang Zhi did not arrange for his cronies, nor did he let the people who had just defected to him run away, Zhao Kai naturally would not refuse; Yang Zhi knew that after all, it was the first time for Zhao Kai to make such a large plate, and the pressure was inevitable, so he smiled and said: "There is one more thing, is it about the emperor?"

"What's wrong?" Zhao Kai was shocked, and Yang Zhi told him about the second time the Jin army went south in history, according to his own guess, and finally said: "The Jin army is fast, and the courtiers of Bianliang cannot be relied on, and the emperor had better not return to Bianliang in the past two years." ”

Zhao Kai nodded and said: "I will arrange this matter, let Zhu Zhiqing send someone to send a message to Wang Wenqing, and let Wang Wenqing and Lin Lingsu find a way to persuade their father." ”

The next day, Yang Zhi led the army to respond to the state, Cao Qianli and the seed master Min were relieved, Yang Zhi was a smart person, and sure enough, he knew the advance and retreat, and the seed master Min asked Wang Shan to go to Taiyuan as the forward. Wang Shan turned out to be Wenda's subordinates, after the loss of the Daimyo's Mansion, he escaped with more than 500 people, and collected thousands of rout soldiers and people all the way to escape into Taihang Mountain, and later Yang Zhi sent Ma Ling to contact, Wang Shan was in the Taihang Mountain area, and expanded to more than 5,000 people with the help of Yang Zhi.

When Wang Shan arrived at the city, he immediately contacted Zhang Xiaochun in the city, Zhang Xiaochun had already heard the news of Yan Lou's murder, and knew that the matter of ceding Taiyuan was now spreading in the city, and the soldiers and civilians all over the city were looking forward to the arrival of Zhao Kai, who was determined to defend Taiyuan, and did not hesitate, and immediately sent people to Wang Shan to meet Zhao Kai; as soon as Zhao Kai's men and horses arrived, Zhang Xiaochun and Wang Yu opened the city gate to welcome. Zhao Kai immediately appointed Zhang Hao, the governor of Fenzhou, as the governor of Fenzhou, and let Zhang Hao occupy Fenzhou as a barrier to the south of Taiyuan.
