The first emperor of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 215 Dilemma
"The soldiers sent out to deliver the message haven't come back yet. I'm afraid this matter is more than auspicious. I'm afraid we have to resolve this situation by ourselves." Wanyan Zongbi shook his head and said.

Another day passed, and the golden army's food and grass were running out, and the soldiers became more irritable.

In Wanyan Zongbi's camp, Xie Chuanjun said to Wanyan Zongbi: "General, the situation is getting worse and worse. In the afternoon, several groups of soldiers started fighting again. Someone below is already spreading the news. Instead of waiting to die here, it is better to go with him." The Song army is fighting to the death."

When Wanyan Zongbi heard what Xie Chuanjun said, he frowned and said: "Our army can't last for a few days, it seems that it's time to fight to the death."

Xie Chuanjun's face tightened, and he said to Wanyan Zongbi: "Is there no other way out?"

Wanyan Zongbi shook his head and said: "There are swamps on both sides. If you go out from this swamp, if you are a little careless, the whole army may be wiped out."

In fact, Wanyan Zongbi also thought about breaking out from here, and sent several teams of spies, but none of them could come back. This swamp is like a monster that devours people, ready to devour anyone who enters it at any time Lose.

In view of this, Wanyan Zongbi gave up his plan to break out from both sides.

"Pass my military order, the whole army will have extra meals tonight!" Wanyan Zongbi said to the messenger.

"Is this what the general wants?" Xie Chuanjun asked Wanyan Zongbi in surprise.

"Taking advantage of the moment when the morale of the army is the most indignant, it is better to give it a go. Maybe there will be a glimmer of hope." Wanyan Zongbi said to Xie Chuanjun.

Xie Chuanjun nodded and said, "General, we will escort you out of the encirclement with all our strength at the end of tomorrow. As long as you are a general and you can break through, our army still has hope."

Wanyan Zongbi couldn't help showing a wry smile when he heard what Xie Chuanjun said, hope?The defeated general, what hope is there?

Silent all night.

In the camp of the main force of the Jin army, Wan Yanchang, Wanyan Zonghan and other generals gathered together to discuss countermeasures.

"Now the Four Kings are trapped on the other side of the Yellow River. If our army can't break through the encirclement of the Song Army, I'm afraid the fifty thousand soldiers of the Four Kings will have to explain where they are." Wan Yan Zonghan said with a frown.

He is the commander-in-chief of the East Army this time, Wan Yanchang is the commander of the West Army this time, and Wanyan Zongbi is under Wan Yanchang.

"Wanyan Yiyin has led an army of [-] to forcibly cross the river once, but our army's warships are no match for the Song army's warships. Our army can't break through the Song army's blockade of the Yellow River at all." Wan Yanchang shook his head and said.

"The Song army has a big ship with thick boards. The two armies don't have to fight at all. But when the Song army brought the boat over, our small boat couldn't resist it. What's more, the Song army has installed a powerful Jingkang crossbow on the ship. , our army can't even get close to the Song army, so it has already been defeated." Wanyan Xiyin still has lingering fears when recalling that battle.

The warships of the Song Army were simply too powerful.

"The Song army has such powerful weapons, but they were beaten by our army before. Didn't they deliberately lose to us?" Wanyan Zonghan said suddenly.

This is the only thought in the minds of all Jin Jiang.

"Defeated to us on purpose? Then can we still deliberately lose to the Liao army? The Liao Kingdom has occupied the Sixteen States of Youyun for hundreds of years. Every emperor of the Song Dynasty wanted to take back the Sixteen States of Youyun, but there was no way. , If they really did it on purpose, then the Youyun Sixteen States would have been taken back long ago." Wan Yanchang shook his head and said.

"The military strength of the Song Dynasty is weak. The emperor of the Song Dynasty has always been extremely distrustful of the army, valuing literature over military affairs, so the situation in front of the army is weak, and now the new emperor of the Song Dynasty attaches great importance to army building. Naturally, this situation is inevitable. Great improvement." Wanyan Xiyin said softly.

"If you say that, then our army will not be able to defeat the Song army. In this case, why not talk about peace between the two countries?" At this time, a voice in the corner said softly.

The one who spoke was Wanyan Liang, who belonged to Wanyan Zongbi's younger generation. He was talking in a low voice, but when Wanyan Xiyin finished speaking, no one spoke for a while, which actually made his voice stand out .

All eyes were on Wan Yanliang.

When did Wan Yanliang receive this kind of treatment, his face turned red immediately.

"Wanyan Liang, stop talking nonsense!" Wanyan Zonghan said softly.

"It's the last general who made a slip of the tongue." Wan Yanliang also knew that what he said at this time was a little inappropriate, wasn't it disturbing the morale of the army, so he said hastily.

"But what should our army do now? The advancing army was blocked on the north bank of the Yellow River. Liu Yu's [-] troops were defeated by the Yue Family Army led by Yue Fei. Li Lei's entangled mob was swept away by Zong Ze. Afterwards, now that we have retreated to Dachang Mountain, I am afraid it will not have any effect." Wan Yanchang said analyzing the situation in front of him.

"Liu Yu is a waste. He led an army of [-] people and was defeated by Yue Fei. In my opinion, there is no need for him to be the son-in-law of the puppet Qi." Wan Yanchang said with a frown.

The reason why Wan Yanchang had such complaints against Liu Yu was naturally for a reason. In fact, Liu Yu was able to become the emperor of this puppet Qi. He got on the horse.

It's just that I didn't expect that after Wanyan Chang became the emperor of the puppet Qi, his face changed completely, especially after he got on the line of Wanyan Zongwang, he ignored Wanyanchang even more. Don't pay attention, after all, after hugging thicker thighs, he no longer needs Wanyan Chang's calves.

When Wan Yanchang led his army over, he arrived at Daming City and asked Liu Yu to come out of the city to greet him, but Liu Yu refused.

"I am the emperor, and Qing is the general. Why is the emperor welcoming the general?" Liu Yu said to Wan Yanchang. Of course, the eunuch sent to Wan Yanchang passed the words, and the eunuch seemed to see that Liu Yu was right about Wan Yanchang. He cared very much, so his attitude towards Wan Yanchang was not very polite at this time, his complacent look was really like announcing a decree to a general.

At that time, Wan Yanchang was angry, and he wanted to get rid of Liu Yu, but there was no excuse. Now that Wan Yanchang finally discovered this opportunity, of course he would not let it go.

"Now Liu Yu is still useful to contain Yue Fei's army. Even if you want to get rid of Liu Yu, you have to wait until the end of this war." Wanyan Zonghan shook his head and said.
