Chapter 130 Life at the end

That night, the golden soldiers who had besieged the square gate of Taiyuan for two months retreated like a tide and gathered together in one place, all in the main business of the golden soldiers at the north gate of Taiyuan. This "locked city" fortifications with a radius of a hundred miles has also been declared disintegrated.

Taiyuan...free!

Because the Jurchens's Army was operating late at night, the gate of Taiyuan City was closed and only on strict guard. By dawn, the Jurchens had been stationed and moved, and the soldiers and civilians in Taiyuan did not know the exact news. It is still a strict and deadly posture as in the past, without any relaxation.

At this time, in the cottage of Qixing Mountain in Taihang, a counterattack plan is being discussed intensively. After Guan Shan and Meng De met at the mouth of the flying fox, they rushed back to the cottage and called other mountain leaders to discuss the strategy of intercepting and killing the women.

The leader of Jiushan promoted Baixu as a military division and listened to him arrange the use of troops. Bai Xun had already planned it and considered Wanyan Zonghan's retreat clearly. To the west is the border of Xixia, and to the south is the hinterland of the Song Dynasty. Wanyan Zonghan can only withdraw north or east. In view of this, Bai Yu made a two-hand arrangement.

First, if Wanyan Zonghan retreats to the north, he will find his own way to die - he can set up an ambush and annihilation on the Flying Fox Road. Even if he can't kill them, he will drag them to death and starve them to death!

Second, if Wanyan Zonghan boldly goes east to break out, he will face the resistance of the king of the Song Dynasty. At this time, Taihang Jiushan can attack the golden soldiers from all sides, cut them first, and then break them one by one!

At the same time, contact Xu Han, the commander of Wang Shi, and Chu Tianya, the king of Taiyuan, and make an appointment with them to intercept the defeated army. Be sure to beat the falling dog and not let the tiger go back to the mountain!

Baixu's opinion has been agreed by everyone. At present, the leaders received this order from him. The remaining 20,000 people in Taihang Jiushan were divided into ten shares and ambushed in various important dangerous crossings of Taihang's southern command to block the golden soldiers. As the saying goes, don't chase the poor. Every ambush does not ask to completely intercept the Jurchens or be greedy for the number of enemies. What they want is to cut their army into small pieces, and then slowly encroach on the whales and swallow them!

The cavalry of the Jurchens is powerful, but Wanyan Zonghan's troops have been exhausted and their combat strength has been greatly reduced. In addition, the ambush sites selected by Bai Xi are all dangerous and remote mountains, which can greatly prevent the fighting power of the Jin cavalry.

Therefore, according to Bai Shu's plan, whether Wanyan Zonghan retreats to the north or the east, he will fall into his trap. In addition, with the help of the battle between Xu Han and the Taiyuan army - Wanyan Zonghan, he has come to the end of Xiaoxiong!

As soon as the plan was agreed, the sentry sent by Qixing Mountain detected the news that the Juvzhen army besieged Taiyuan had made a movement. They had withdrawn the besieged soldiers and horses, and it seemed that they were about to flee!

Since the siege of Taiyuan has been solved, it should not be too late. Bai Xu immediately sent a quick envoy to contact Xu Han, and asked Ada to go to Taiyuan to inform the king of the city and Chu Tianya to act according to the plan!

At the same time of the emergency meeting in Qixing Mountain, Wanyan Zonghan, who learned that the grain and fodder in Lingqiu County was burned in the rear, has made a response in the shortest time.

The boldness of his strategy made the female generals, including Shi Liai, secretly take a few breaths of cold air!

Wanyan Zonghan's general strategy is to break through Xu Han and go east!

Behind the female real woman is a flat and unimpeded free zone, which is a strategic depth specially reserved for Yunzhong Mansion. However, when he learned that Yinshu could be blocked by the mouth of the flying fox, he thought that this seemingly safe retreat was not safe. The main reason is that the Flying Fox Road is too narrow, which is not conducive to the rapid withdrawal of tens of thousands of troops. If the Taipeden horse sets a checkpoint and ambushes there, the army will be blocked in the sheep intestine path. If it is chased and blocked in front of the Flying Fox Road by Song soldiers at this time, the Nvzhen army, which has been exhausted by the veterans of the Grain Division, will be in danger of the destruction of the whole army!

Although there is no exact news that the Flying Fox Road has been completely blocked by the enemy, the risk is so great that Wanyan Zonghan doesn't want to risk it.

On the contrary, if they break out to the east, although they have to face the king of the Song army of Xu Han, that army has long been beaten by the real iron horse. In addition, Xu Han was subject to the officials of the Southern Dynasties, which was just convenient for Wanyan Zonghan to use political and diplomatic means.

So he sent an envoy to meet Xu Han and said, "The king of Taiyuan and others were too stubborn to resist the imperial edict of the Southern Dynasty not to hand over the city. The State of Jin didn't want to waste money and food here, so he asked Xu Han to clean up the door and then deliver the city."

In order to prevent Xu Han and others from doubting, Wanyan Zonghan still put on a strong face, arbitrarily and unreasonablely asked the Song Dynasty to "compensate for the lost soldiers and horses in the attack on Taiyuan". Then, Wanyan Zonghan was very "complisting" and said that he knew that Xu Han was ordered to act outside. If he could not do this kind of thing, he needed to ask the court for instructions, but the Jin army could not wait here, so he asked Xu Han to give 30,000 stones of food and fodder to the Jin soldiers first, and gave up the channel, and let Wanyan Zonghan lead his army to turn to the river. Returning north to the north - of course, the advantage for Xu Han is that Taiyuan is "temporarily at your disposal".

Wanyan Zonghan's satisfactory calculation can be said to be extremely loud, provided that he has recognized the fate and weakness of the commander-in-chief of the Southern Dynasty. He knew that the "rat gallbladder official family" of the Southern Dynasty did not dare to offend Dajin at all, so that Xu Han and other generations who led troops to save Taiyuan also hesitated and did not dare to fight to the death. Before that, they fought two battles were fiasco, so they were even more confident. In this case, if 30,000 stones of grain and grass can be exchanged for a Taiyuan city, it can also calm the contradictions and conflicts between the Southern Dynasties and the Dajin Kingdom. This kind of friendship has always been pleasant to hear and willing. For Xu Han personally, he also made a great contribution, which is quite similar to that of Tong Guan's "recoup" Yanjing Mansion.

Xu Han has no reason to disagree with this kind of "win-win" good thing.

It turned out that Wanyan Zonghan was right. This resourceful Jurman did not defeat the Taiyuan people on the battlefield, but once again won the negotiation table of the Southern Dynasty.

Although Xu Han is a little bold and righteous and willing to serve the country, after all, his life is in the hands of the officials of the court. Of course, he knows the real thoughts in the hearts of the officials - it is best to recover Taiyuan; if not, he can't make too deep with the female real women!

Now Song Bing's new defeat Xu Han has just sent a letter to the court for instructions, and he is also ready to be scolded and punished. Wanyan Zonghan suddenly threw such a big pie and is willing to exchange 30,000 stones of grain and grass for him a Taiyuan city - this is not only what officials and the court are most willing to accept, but also to save him Xu Han. Official career and your life!

Although Xu Han's breeders and Yao Gu and other generals agree that Wanyan Zonghan has been at the end of the crossbow, and it is the best time to beat the falling dog. However, Xu Han did not accept it at all, and still stood at the height of "the diplomatic relations and court politics of the two countries". He cruelly criticized and suppressed the request for war put forward by the generals, and directly criticized the two famous generals of the Western Army, Zhong and Yao, without any temper.

Then, in order to reflect the tolerance and geneaty of our southern ceremonial state, Xu Han warmly entertained the messengers and promised to send 20 more cars of wine and 100-stone meat on the basis of 30,000 stones of grain and fodder requested by Wanyan Zonghan to see off the "Jin Guoyou Army". In order to show the friendship between the two countries, Xu Han promised to move all his troops to the south for 30 miles to make way for the golden soldiers!

Xu Han didn't even ask why Wanyan Zonghan didn't take the shortcut directly to the north to Yunzhong, but had to detour hundreds of miles around Hebei.

The negotiations went so smoothly and the efficiency of the officials of the Southern Dynasties was unprecedentedly high, which was simply beyond Wanyan Zonghan's expectation. In almost less than a day, everything was settled. When the envoy of the State of Jin went back, he also brought a car full of grain and grass, wine and meat!

This really solves Wanyan Zonghan's urgent need. He immediately ordered the whole army to eat and rest for a while, and then abandoned the heavy and light soldiers to break out to the east. In order to prevent accidents, he arranged several generals such as Gu Shen, Wu Shi, Wu Li Hai, etc., each led the elite cavalry to open the way, guard the two wings of the army on the left and right, and laid three ambushes to guard the soldiers and horses in Taiyuan City to chase him!

Everything is well planned. After dark tomorrow, tens of thousands of Jurai troops will rise up and flee to the east!

At this time, the Taiyuan soldiers and civilians trapped in the city had just found out the movements of the female real women outside the city. On the surface, it seems that the siege can be solved, and Taiyuan is a victory. However, people know nothing about the outside world and it is difficult to make a clear judgment. Coupled with Wanyan Zonghan's old way, he may be trying to open the gate of Taiyuan. Therefore, the soldiers and civilians in the city still dare not relax and are still ready.

That night, Ada passed through the fortifications of the golden soldiers who had evacuated the city, touched the city of Taiyuan, and sent several "heavy pound news" to the soldiers and civilians in the city.

When they heard the news, everyone was overjoyed, but Wang Yu, who had already run out of oil, fainted on the spot!

The military doctors tried their best to finally wake up Wang. When he woke up, the first sentence Wang Yu said was - "What about the end of the world"?

"The students are there!" Chu Tianya was guarding in front of Wang Yu's sickbed and hurried forward to hold his hand.

Wang Bao looked around the room. His son Wang Xun, the generals in the army, Xiao Linglong and others were all there, so he said, "You all go out first!"

When everyone heard the words, they retreated silently.

At this time, Wang Qian, who was already as thin as a firewood, closed his eyes, took a long breath leisurely, and a rare smile appeared on his face. He took Chu Tianya's hand and said, "Tianya, we are finally looking forward to this day; unfortunately, I'm about to die, and I can't accompany you on the next journey."

Chu Tianya has already had a bottom in mind about Wang's physical condition. At this time, he can only sigh in his heart. Now all the comforting words are all gossip. Chu Tianya said, "What does the teacher have to tell?"

"You are different and a rare talent. But your personality can't be based on the officialdom and army of the Song Dynasty. And what you have done before is inevitable. Wang Yu closed his eyes and said slowly and lowly, "We have temporarily defended Taiyuan City, but it is difficult to guarantee that it will still fall into the hands of the Jin people in the future. On that day, I finally understood when I received the imperial edict sent by Lu Yundi into the city. No matter how capable loyal ministers and how many troops they have, even if they can defend a city and a place, they can't defend the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains that collapsed in the inner garden of the Song Dynasty.

Chu Tianya nodded silently. As the saying goes, Taoist people are about to die and his words are also good. At this time, Wang said what he said from the bottom of his heart.

Wang Qian rested for a moment. Chu Tianya fed him a sip of hot water, and then he said, "Maybe in the present time of the Song Dynasty, what I really lack is not Wang Jinggong (Wang Anshi) who implements the reform and changes, nor a few fierce generals who are loyal and brave enough to be used to fighting, but a hero who can transcend decay and vulgar rules. In the existing In addition to the dynasty and the law, it brings a bold and groundbreaking innovation to the rivers and mountains of the Song Dynasty... If you break it and stand up, you may be able to survive in a desperate place!"

"Break and stand back, and live in a desperate place..." Chu Tianya repeated this sentence.

Wang Yu's hand added a little strength and held Chu Tianya's hand tightly. At the same time, he opened his eyes and looked at him with a strange light in his eyes. "I know that you are by no means something in the pool. Maybe one day in the future, you will become the hero in my prophecy! ... Promise me that no matter when, the butcher knife in your hand will never wave to your own people!"

Chu Tianya's eyebrows closed and nodded gently.

Wang Qiru breathed a sigh of relief and closed his eyes and lay down. "Now, it's time for you to leave Taiyuan and go to Taihang Mountain!"
