Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 345 The Defense of Tokyo 33
The corner of Zhang Bangchang’s mouth twitched, and he rolled his eyes violently. This kid is really good at talking nonsense. You broke the family army’s stronghold, and you even talked nonsense about visiting Zhao Gou. You didn’t see that the knife was on your neck. Believe it or not, I will give you a few ears when I go back .

Believe it or not is an argument, no one really cares about it, Chi Zhanhui cursed in his heart, but said: "Your king and Mr. Xianggong have nothing to do, Zhige has not retired, so why don't you stay for a glass of wine?"

But I have to say that this war is very flavorful. Although the Jurchens are barbarians, they fought against the Khitan for ten years and gradually got rid of the barbaric atmosphere. Plus, don't wantonly kill living people.That is to say, no matter how fierce the fight between the two sides was, there were still envoys going back and forth to the battlefield to gain more bargaining chips for the negotiations and try to be as gentle as possible.

Not only Zhao Gou, but also Zhang Bangchang, and Zheng Wangzhi, as an envoy, was bargaining in other camps. Wu Li couldn't help but use Zheng Wangzhi as a bargaining chip. Well protected, no one can say a word.

Just waiting for your words, Wang Xiu sneered inwardly, and said loudly: "If your Majesty and Mr. Xiang want to return to the city, I can wait for a while."

The corners of Chizhanhui's mouth twitched violently. Seeing the two wings of the golden army gathering quickly, he roared in a low voice: "Wang Xiu should withdraw his troops soon, otherwise everyone will not look good."

Zhang Bangchang's face was ashen, he almost fainted, he hastily shouted at the top of his voice: "My Majesty and I negotiated a peace by order, and we will retreat quickly from the pavilion, there must be no mistake."

Wang Xiu has already captured Dazhai, if he is really dismissed in the name of prime minister, it will definitely be his future tail, and anyone can use it to attack him.However, Xiao Ming was still holding on to the opponent, so he had no choice but to take one step at a time.

Think about Wang Xiu eight years ago, still a budding scholar, he is already a high-ranking Zhizhou, the communication between the two is definitely admiring and being appreciated.Now, the family system is set up in Jibei, wearing armor and holding a lance, full of loyalty, whether you can listen to him or not, I can't help but feel gloomy.

"Zhige, your prime minister has spoken. Please withdraw your troops. I will definitely give you a gift." Chizhanhui wanted to hold Wang Xiu back and wait for the half-pillar incense and gold army to regroup. He would never let Wang Xiu go, and vowed to take this The boy took it down himself and waited on him ruthlessly with a whip. As for the beheading, it was up to Wu.

Since the outbreak of the war, Wulibu has almost never killed the civil officials of the Song Dynasty, and even military generals rarely killed them. They often adopt a soft policy and persuade those who can surrender as much as possible. With his status and fame, it is estimated that even if he is defeated and captured, as long as he is subdued, his life will not be in danger.

"Since the prime minister speaks less and the king is fine, I will withdraw the troops as ordered." Wang Xiu didn't want to procrastinate at all. Every minute passed was more dangerous, and the best way was to borrow a ladder to get down.

"The two of you led the army to cover, and the infantry and cavalry retreated quickly."

As said and done, while Chizhanhui, Zhang Bangchang and even Wulibu and Zhao Gou were stunned, the two cavalry teams of Qiu Yun and Jingbo were postponed, and the Song army was divided into several teams and retreated like a hurricane. Clean and neat.

"Wanhu doesn't need to send each other off. I have a chance to have wine with Wanhu." Wang Xiu turned his horse's head and still teased Chizhanhui.The monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty were not used to using Jurchen language. For example, Chizhanhui was the mother Bojin, and it was appropriate to be called Wanhu by Wang Xiu.

"You bastard, you're too deceitful, don't fall into my hands." Chi Zhanhui's face was livid, but he didn't dare to attack, and he was powerless to fight back.

Gao Sheng's cavalry still had the ability to fight, but he hesitated, unwilling to take the initiative to attack, and watched the Song army retreat one after another.

"Why don't you launch a counterattack?" Wu Libu saw the Song army gradually retreating, rode his horse to the front of the formation, and got angry.

Chi Zhanhui said helplessly: "The cavalry has a scattered organization, and we are powerless to pursue."

Wuli looked around without being angry, and found that the Jin army was gathering. If Wang Xiu continued to attack, he might not have the power to resist, let alone a large-scale counterattack. The fire was vented on Zhang Bangchang, and he said sharply: "My lord, did Wang Xiu obey the imperial edict of your family?"

Zhang Bangchang was in pain for a while, he was unlucky enough, and he had to wipe his ass, he said submissively: "I never obeyed the order, so I will definitely impeach him when I go back." A joke, can you say that Wang Xiu came here under the order?This is not to add trouble to Zhao Guan's family.

It's not easy to say serious things if you don't want to leave. After all, he is also the prime minister. He said to Chizhanhui angrily: "Gather the troops quickly, follow them and hold them back. When the reinforcements arrive, I will take down Wang Xiu. Take back the handsome flag for me."

However, Wang Xiu sent an order to withdraw the army, and some officials were very reluctant, and they all knocked down the big stronghold of the Jin army. They were afraid that he would be a bird. Wouldn't it be better to take the opportunity to expand the results?However, Wang Xiu's military order was like a mountain, even if they were unwilling, they retreated, unwilling to take the opportunity to set fire, just take the money that can be robbed, the cavalry and infantry withdraw from the battle very quickly, the two-winged cavalry cover, and the infantry quickly Stepping back, I didn't forget to collect the remains of robes killed along the way. In the era of Wang Xiu's leadership, the 78 generals had developed a military style of not abandoning any robes.

It was the unsatisfactory fire that made Jin Jun jump around again, and even the pursuit was delayed, so hurry up to put out the fire!

Wu Shu personally led the team to kill, Wang Xiu had evacuated Moutuogang a long time ago, he hurriedly met Wu Libu, and let Gao Sheng, He Lusuo, and Han Chang lead the team to follow and pursue.But to catch up with Wang Xiu is pure nonsense, who knows if Wang Xiu has a backup, she has already reached the West Wall of Kaifeng, and can launch a fierce counterattack at any time.

As for the battle at Mutianpo, a main force was transferred away, how can this battle continue!Facing the tenacious resistance of the Song army, the solid army formation is really difficult to fight!The Jin army had to withdraw from the battlefield one after another.Seeing that the Jin army's offensive was gradually subsiding, Li Gang immediately ordered all the ministries to move closer to the Chinese army. The Jin army stayed behind to monitor the soldiers and horses approaching the Song army again, but he personally urged the bed crossbow and the god arm bow to repel them.

"This one, this one is very good." After entering the temporary camp on the west wall, Wang Xiucai breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sir, why don't we take advantage of the victory to pursue it? How aggrieved!" Jing Bo was very dissatisfied and still complained a bit.

Wang Xiu didn't take it seriously, he laughed heartily, and said: "With four thousand soldiers, you still want to wipe out all the captives? It would be great if you can take down Dazhai. When reinforcements arrive, you won't be able to run away even if you want to." .”

Feng Yuan nodded frequently after hearing this, and said: "If there are tens of thousands of reinforcements tonight, Mister will be able to defeat the enemy and make great achievements in the world."

Wang Xiu glanced at Li Bao and felt very regretful, after all, there were not many chances of capturing the Jurchen general alive, what a pity!But it’s a pity, it’s a pity, he always achieved huge results, which completely exceeded his goal, and immediately said straightforwardly: "The retreat is just right, well, let the strong men rest well and strengthen their guard, I have suffered a big loss! I can’t count it like this That's right. By the way, look at the casualties, all the remains of Paoze who died in battle have been snatched back."

Sure enough, Wuli couldn't help being angry, and sent it to the Song army outside the north wall, mobilizing troops and horses overnight to prepare for the battle.

The next day, when Li Gang entered the city, he heard the edict of dismissal. He was shocked and immediately asked to meet Zhao Huan to explain the cause and effect.When the servant passed the decree and summoned him to the Chongzheng Palace, he hurried into the palace. When he arrived at the gate of the Chongzheng Palace, he was told that the summoning was cancelled. The body of the sin did not go back to the house to rest, so he waited for the crime in the bathroom yard that day.

The commander-in-chief was dismissed, and the Song army outside the city had no leader. Chizhanhui and Wushu jointly launched an attack. The Song army rushed to the battle and was defeated.

The ridiculous thing is that Cai Mao presided over the defense of Kaifeng and accounted for the losses during the war. Yao Pingzhong and Li Gang lost more than a thousand soldiers and horses. Fan Qiong, Wang Shigu and others did not lose much.

It's a big deal, why don't you report it?There are too many people who know, sooner or later it will spread, that is the crime of bullying the king!I didn't see a few eunuchs who concealed the gold medals were killed, and it's hard to tell the civil servants in extraordinary times!
However, if it is really reported, Li Gang and Zhong Shidao will be reactivated, which is the last thing he and Li Bangyan want to see.After some weighing, he believed that Zhao Huan had already decided to negotiate a peace, and he had a heart for Li Gang and Zhong Shidao. Even if they were used, it would be difficult to accomplish anything, so he bit the bullet and reported the war damage according to the facts.

Zhao Huan was very depressed, it seems that the damage was pretty good!There is also an even more shocking news. Wang Xiu attacked Moutuogang Dazhai last night. No wonder the northwest direction was full of flames. When the battle at Mutianpo was in full swing, the main force of the Jin army suddenly stopped attacking.

Wang Xiu's memorial clearly stated that the 78th General Qiu Fu led two thousand soldiers and horses to support Mu Tianpo as a bait to confuse the Jin army.More than [-] other soldiers attacked Moutuogang at night and broke through the three strongholds, and broke into the tent of the Jin army's central army.

The important officials of the two governments looked at each other, this was a real great achievement, compared to Wang Xiu's record, no matter whether it was Li Gang or the teacher's way, they were all overshadowed.

"Could it be that Wang Xiu really broke into Moutuogang?" Zhao Ji still couldn't fully believe that a mere four thousand soldiers could have such a great ability?

"Your Majesty, Wang Xiu's use of troops has always been weird. He dare not make false reports about this kind of thing." Li Bangyan thought about it a little, and thought that the credibility was at the seventh or eighth level. Things became clear immediately.

Cai Mao pursed his lips, and asked in doubt: "Could it be that the captives were unprepared and let Wang Xiu take advantage of the loopholes?" But his words were very weak, and he almost didn't believe himself.

"It's absolutely impossible." Wu Min said categorically, "Your Majesty, call Wang Xiu to see him, and everything will be understood."

"Quickly pass on Wang Xiu's audience." Zhao Heng was eager to find out what he really wanted, but he was worried about other things.
