Chapter 241 Arrogant Lingyun
Liu Ziyu said that he had recently joined the Rebel Army and had no size. He was willing to beg Chu Tianya to allow him to lead a man and horse to recover Zhongshan and Hejian.
Chu Tianya believes that Liu Ziyu is very familiar with all kinds of situations when he has been active in this area. In addition, Chu Tianya really wants to reuse this young general. Now it is indeed a good thing to give him some opportunities to make some contributions, and it is more appropriate for him to take action.
Therefore, Liu Ziyu led a thousand tigers and general Tang Ang that Chu Tianya gave him, and looked at Zhongshan and left. Chu Tianya led the people to rest in the countryside.
Compared with the time when he came, Chu Tianya now has money, food and supplies. He can even hide in the warm carriage and drink two mouthfuls of good ginger tea. The injured brothers also have medical treatment, and the rectification and recuperation at a young time are too important for them.
In a real battle, 8,000 riders lost 2,000, and the other 3,000 or 4,000 people had minor injuries, and even suffered heavy losses. However, Chu Tianya successfully disrupted the overall military plan of the State of Jin, and the bridgehead they set up on the border of the Song Dynasty were really fixed. A large amount of military salaries and food and fodder stored here were empty, which was also a big loss for the State of Jin. In winter, the transportation of materials is the most difficult thing. Jinren didn't know how much time, manpower and material resources it took to prepare a military fund for the Southern Expeditionary Army. It's better now. It's cheaper to get married.
This military capital alone can greatly delay the invasion of Jin Guo's southern country. No matter how strong their soldiers and horses are, they dare not fight with hunger. The reason why Wanyan Zongwang quickly withdrew the soldiers and horses in Hejian and Zhongshan after the Battle of Zhending must also be for the sake of materials - he didn't want all three granaries to be taken away.
The three cities of Zhending, Hejian and Zhongshan are each other's horns, which is a very solid iron triangle militarily. Once one side is missing, the other city may face siege and collapse. I have to admit that Wanyan Zongwang is indeed a very calm commander. He did not show off his will for a moment and immediately fight back. Instead, he withdrew the people and horses between Zhongshan and the river and withdrew his fists to regain momentum.
Chu Tianya can imagine that if Wanyan Zongwang attacks again, it must be the power of thunder with all his strength. In the past two years, the State of Jin has successively absorbed the soldiers and horses of the State of Liao, and has been constantly capturing strong men and recruiting troops in the occupied areas. Their army has expanded from thousands of soldiers and horses at the beginning of the beginning of the army to 700,000 to 800,000!
Last year, there were less than 200,000 soldiers and horses in the south, which can be said to be a tentative blow. Unexpectedly, the people of Wanyan Zongwang of the East Road Army went straight to the city of Tokyo. Now looking at the posture of the State of Jin, it must be the destruction of the Song Dynasty - if Zong Han and Zong Wang fly south with both wings again, it is estimated that the total number of soldiers and horses will not be less than 600,000!
This account is not well-appointed by everyone, including the kings and ministers of the Southern Kingdom and Zhao Gu, the king of Kang, who garrisoned the border. That is to say, under the command of Chu Tianya, there are many Khitans and Han people who fled from the Jin Kingdom, as well as those Qingwei who are familiar with the details of the Jin Kingdom. Chu Tianya knows it.
600,000 troops, if the soldiers come in two ways, the Song Dynasty is indeed irresistible. All the way to the west, Chu Tianya had to fight with Zong Han in Xiaocang Mountain; all the way to the east line, it must have been recovered now, and the battlefield must be here. Chu Tianya didn't know how many soldiers and horses the court was going to send to support King Kang. With the usual style of the Song Dynasty, it would definitely not be more than 200,000.
This point of soldiers and horses, coupled with Zhao Gu's ability, is probably not enough to plug Zong Wang's teeth. But Chu Tianya can't take care of much. He has done his best to push the battlefield from the hinterland of Tokyo to Zhending. Now it depends on whether the officials and ministers in the court have woken up in a drunken dream, and whether they will pay enough attention to the next Zhending battle... This kind of thing can only be divination, and no one has any idea.
If God is destined to die in the Song Dynasty, it is indeed not Chu Tianya's own strength to return to heaven. The brains of officials and ministers are different from that of ordinary people. Even if the knife is on the neck, the first thing they think about is the struggle for power and suspicion. This bad root has been planted since the beginning of the founding of the Song Dynasty, and no one can get rid of it.
Now, Chu Tianya can only "bless" Zhao Gu, the king of Kang, who was forced to drive the ducks on the shelves. Chu Tianya kicked him to the forefront of the storm and forced him to be a tide and national hero of history. Whether he can do what he wants depends on his creation!
Two days later, Liu Ziyu led the people back. None of them had bloodshot wounds. It can be seen that he did not move a knife or a soldier. He reported that long before they rushed to Hejian and Zhongshan, the head of the city had been planted with the king flag of the Song Dynasty - Zhao Gu had already started!
This was a little unexpected from Chu Tianya. He inquired about it. It turned out that on the same day that Zhao Gu waved his troops to Zhending, he sent several generals to lead a brigade to run to the empty city Zhongshan and the river. The Jurchens didn't leave anything. Before they left, they set off a few fires in the city and killed some people. It can be said that Hejian and Zhongshan are almost two devastated empty cities!
"Slaughter the city in your own city. It's not a piece of jade. The real beast is cruel enough!" Chu Tianya took a deep breath and slowly exhaled, "In this case, there is no benefit for our army to stay here again - let's go back to Taiyuan!"
Before Chu Tianya's order was issued, Liuhe hurried up and whispered, "Master, the rosefinch and the nobles haven't come back yet."
"I can't wait." Chu Tianya sighed, "Thousands of brothers are here. It's more dangerous to stay one more day and one more night. The people of the State of Jin are about to do it. Wanyan Zonghan doesn't know what good things have prepared for us, so he is about to arrive in Taiyuan.
Liuhe nodded silently. He knew that Chu Tianya wanted to see the rosefinch and the nobles immediately more than anyone else. But compared with the lives of thousands of brothers, especially thousands of wounded, and the whole situation in Hedong, the lord can only give up the small and take the big!
"The order, the whole army marched to Huanglong Valley - A Nu led 500 tigers as an outpost, and Jiao Wentong escorted supplies from behind to take care of the wounded!"
Thousands of people moved around and looked at Huanglong Valley.
The weather is still cold, splashing water into ice. Although there was a great victory, the 8,000 cavalry were seriously damaged, and the people who survived also lost their vitality. Therefore, the withdrawal was far less lively than when they came.
That night, the army was stationed at the mouth of Huanglong Valley. When the tents were just tied up, a small group of cavalry came from the northeast corner. The sentry replied that it was King Kang who came to "wish" the friendly troops in Hedong.
Chu Tianya said with a smile. It seems that although King Kang hates me to death, he doesn't want to completely turn against me. Maybe he still expects me to send a team of people from Huanglong Valley one day to help him.
Jiao Wentong and others laughed and said that people like King Kang are the best at this skill. In their eyes, there are no eternal enemies and friends, only eternal interests!
Originally, Chu Tianya didn't pay attention to this little thing, and what King Kang blocked was nothing more than wine and cloth, which was called the general's army. However, the person who came to send these things brightened Chu Tianya's eyes - Yue Fei!!
Hearing this, Chu Tianya trembling with excitement: I finally saw the living!
So Chu Tianya and others set up a pose in the tent and officially met Yue Fei.
Yue Fei got up, with two colleagues, one of whom was Zhang Xian.
"The last cavalry envoy Yue Fei, I have met the general!" Yue Fei held his fist in the account and said in a very official tone, "Yue Fei was ordered by King Kang to see off the general and to the army. His Royal Highness King Kang said to the general that the general has worked hard for the country and the people, and the recovery of the city should be honored. Xiao Wang did not have many collisions and offenses at the beginning of the military. He also hopes that the general will be relieved and will not care about it. Xiao Wang is willing to coexist and die with the general in Hedong in Hebei!"
Hearing Yue Fei's words, Jiao Wentong and others laughed - as expected by the master, King Kang knew that he was about to be beaten by the golden man, and he would never let go if he could catch a straw!
Chu Tianya did not smile. He looked at Yue Fei up and down inch by inch, and was afraid to miss any details.
After Yue Fei finished speaking, Chu Tianya still looked at him and did not answer.
Everyone couldn't help but be stunned, and Yue Fei was even more confused, so he looked up at Chu Tianya. It's okay if you don't see it. At a glance, Yue Fei's face also showed a look of astonishment - General, how young?!
Chu Tianya finally saw Yue Fei's face clearly. He was resolute, handsome, his eyes were like a divine lamp, and his body was magnificent and straight - a born warrior!
Liuhe, standing behind Chu Tianya, gently touched Chu Tianya.
"Oh! ..." Chu Tianya came to his senses and smiled slightly, "Please go to the King of Fukang, and say that Chu knows his heart and is willing to coexist with King Kang."
"Yes." Yue Fei held a fist and didn't look at Chu Tianya again. "In this way, I will go back to die in the end!"
"General Yue, please stay!" Chu Tianya stood up.
Jiao Wentong and others couldn't help but be stunned: a military envoy, is the lord like this? Also call him a general?
Yue Fei, Zhang Xian and others were stunned. Yue Fei picked up his fist and said, "The upper general mistakenly said that the last one is just a military envoy level, not a general."
"Not now, it will be soon." Chu Tianya walked up to Yue Fei with a smile and said, "Since you are not used to me calling you a general, I will call you Pengju!" - Although Chu is in Hedong, he has heard the name of Pengju for a long time. Ling Tang once stabbed on your back, so that you were determined to serve the country. You are skilled in martial arts, which can be said to be a powerful opponent of tens of thousands of people and power to turn the tide. Now there is only one army, hey... current affairs are created!"
Yue Fei, Zhang Xian and others were surprised!
"Why does the general know Yue so well?" Yue Fei was surprised and said, "Does even my mother know the words on Yue's back like the palm of her hand?"
Jiao Wentong and others were also puzzled and looked at Chu Tianya in surprise.
Chu Tianya smiled slightly and said, "I have a teacher, and I have a good relationship with my senior Zhang Dong and senior Zhang. I heard from him. Since you are a senior disciple of Zhang, you are also a brother with me.
Yue Fei looked at Chu Tianya in surprise, "When the first master passed away, he never mentioned when he had a 'moi's friendship', let alone the general's name..."
Chu Tianya smiled and said, "My teacher sees it, you may not know it; but if you say the name, you must know it. I certainly won't doubt that he is your teacher's best friend.
"Would you like to hear more about it?"
Chu Tianya smiled and said, "His original surname is Chen, which is taboo Xizhen. He once worked as a teacher with his teacher in Tokyo. Now, it's exactly Chu's teacher.
"Is it him?" As soon as Yue Fei heard the name, a trace of anger suddenly appeared on his face. "This person, Yue, has heard of it. It's right that he works with the pioneer, but he is definitely not an introvertible friend!" On the contrary, they are different and do not conspire. They are the right enemies!"
Chu Tianya's heart clattered: It's bad. The relatives didn't climb up, and they even pulled out the enemy!
"How can I see it?" Chu Tianya didn't ask, but Jiao Wen asked.
Yue Fei obviously did not really pay attention to the high-ranking generals and heroes of Hedong. He looked around at the crowd and snorted coldly and said, "In those years, Chen | Xizhen helped Zhou to abuse, and Fang La's flow was in trouble in the south of the Yangtze River, shaking half of the Song Dynasty. How dare such thieves be compared with their predecessors? The first master is determined to support justice and serve the court all his life. How can he get along with Chen | Xizhen? - General, please don't match the name and surname of this person with the former teacher again! The spirit of the first teacher in heaven is especially afraid of humiliation!"
"You are bold!!" Jiao Wentong was furious and raised his hand to Yue Fei, "District military envoy, dare to talk so much in front of my master!"
Liuhe and others were also angry. After all, Mr. He is the head of Qingwei, and he is also the Taishan Beidou they admire and respect together!
"Yue didn't mean to offend. It's just that the first teacher is Yingling, and you have to be honest with each other!" Yue Fei was neither humble nor angry. He punched Chu Tianya and said, "If the general is angry, he will fall from Yue!" But please go to the general and don't involve the name of the master, and don't involve His Royal Highness King Kang!"
Chu Tianya looked at Yue Fei, smiled slightly, and nodded gently, "I don't blame you. It's not the same as Taoism. That's it.
"Thank you, General Haihan!" Yue Fei held a punch again, and then wrapped a fist around the people in the account, "Yue is so offended! - goodbye!"
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Chu Tianya had ten thousand thoughts in his heart to keep him. At this time, he had to stride away.
The way is different, and they don't conspire with each other.
Chu Tianya knows that in Yue Fei's eyes, whether it is Chen Xizhen or Chu Tianya, they are all bandits who harm the country and the people. His personality is full of clear edges and corners, and there is only black and white in his eyes...
Personality determines fate. Perhaps this is an important reason why Yue Fei died in Fengbo Pavilion in history?
Jiao Wentong and others were angry with Yue Fei and scolded angrily, saying that it would be better to cut these Yue Fei with a knife, but it would also relieve their hatred! He offended the lord so much, bumped into the general, and cut him off. Zhao Gu couldn't let out a fart.
Chu Tianya smiled and waved his hand quickly, "Can't be cut, can't be cut!" There are fewer and fewer interesting and useful people like him in the world. It's really hard to cut!"
Liu Ziyu smiled and said, "The master loves talent as much as his life, and he is thirsty for talent. Unfortunately, Yue Fei is not ungrateful and does not plan with each other... According to his subordinates, it is impossible for Yue Fei to turn to the master at all!"
"If he doesn't vote for me, he can still make a career! Did I kill him just because he didn't follow me? Chu Tianya smiled and said, "There are not many people who can use it in the Song Dynasty. How can Chu do this kind of thing of cooking cranes and burning the piano?"
"That being said, this Yue Fei is too arrogant and domineering!" Jiao Wentong's hot temper seemed to have been aroused by Yue Fei. He squinted a pair of Danfeng's eyes and was already blooming murderous. "According to Jiao's previous personality, he is now a ghost!"
Chu Tianya smiled and said nothing.
Other people also laughed and passed by.
But everyone thought in their hearts that this is the difference between Chu Tianya and Jiao Wentong. The reason why Qixingzhai developed to a certain scale on that day was no longer stagnate, isn't it because of Jiao Wentong's personality?
Yue Fei was presumptuous in front of Chu Tianya. Not only was he not cut down, but he didn't even get a word of reprimand. This was more or less unexpected by himself, Zhang Xian and others. Before leaving, Chu Tianya also sent Liu Ziyu to send Yue Fei. One was to bring back some gifts to King Kang, and the other was to send something to Yue Fei.
Yue Fei didn't want it or say anything more. He just took the gift to King Kang and went there.
Liu Ziyu reported to Chu Tianya that Yue Feiqing was extremely arrogant and better than Jiao's second brother. Chu Tianya smiled and said that anyone who has the ability has more or less this bad temper. Jiao Wentong and Yue Fei, including the leaders of other Hedong Rebels you are about to know, have a sense of pride in their chests that can kill people.
Liu Ziyu immediately felt that it was not easy for Chu Tianya to do it. First of all, this broad mind and capacity are not comparable to ordinary people.
The army rested all night. In the middle of the night, Chu Tianya read the book for a while and was about to fall asleep. Suddenly, Liuhe came to report, "Lord, the rosefinch and the nobles are back!"
Chu Tianya jumped up and said, "Come on, please come in!"
As soon as the words fell, the curtain was knocked open, and the nobleman with snow and cold wind rushed into Chu Tianya's arms.
"I thought I would never see you again!!" Noble man's hysterical crying!
Chu Tianya hugged her and patted her on the back. Seeing that, the rosefinch bent down and came in, stood at the curtain, and smiled at Chu Tianya.
She was still wearing a mask, but Chu Tianya knew she was smiling. Because she is the kind of woman who is used to laughing with her eyes, she is so charming.
