Chapter 243 Youzhou Preparedness

Youzhou was called Nanjing when it was occupied by the State of Jin. It is only a few hundred miles away from the current capital of the State of Jin. Because Wu Qimai always wanted to recover it, he never thought of moving the capital.

Wanyan Loushi was once Wanyan Zonghan's favorite general, and at the same time, he was very trusted by the former emperor Wu Qimai. So this time the emperor changed, he became one of the generals who were mainly cleared out of the capital.

Everyone thought that the emperor's death was strange, so when the old chief entrusted his son and the prince of the former emperor to Wanyan Lou's room, he did not say a word and ran to Youzhou in the bitter cold wind with 3,000 men.

Wanyan Loushi's behavior is loyal to Wanyan Zonghan, and rebellious to Wanyan. Therefore, Wanyan Gao immediately ordered Gao Qing, together with the general Liu Yanzong, to lead 10,000 horses to hunt down Wanyan Lou and his party.

Liang Shan relayed the news by eagle letter and pigeon letter. Although the speed has been raised to the extreme, it is still not as fast as Gao Qing's pursuit of Wanyan Lou and his party.

Seeing that the mountain beam in front of him arrived at the boundary of Youzhou, but the 3,000 horses in Wanyan Lou Room had been lost. Only Wanyan Baokang, Wanyan Baoshu, and dozens of bodyguards were left beside them. It can be seen that the fierce fighting along the way.

Gao Qing has treated the Han people fiercely, not to mention the Jin people. In his eyes, Wanyan Baoshu's small head has become a golden key to be promoted and rich, so he can't help urging people to chase and kill.

Liu Yanzong is also a Han man and one of the traitors who sold his life to slaves in his early years, but he was a very talented general, otherwise Wanyan would not regard him as his confidant.

Because he has been stationed in Youzhou, Liu Yanzong is very familiar with the terrain in this area and is about to reach the boundary of Youzhou. He couldn't help but worry. In case Liangshan misunderstood that he wanted to attack them and launched a counterattack, it would easily trigger a full-scale war between the two countries.

The fast horse and whip caught up with Gao Qingyi, who ran more happily than him. He reached out and grabbed Gao Qingyi's reins and said, "Lord Gao, you can't chase them anymore. There is Youzhou in front of you. If we attract Liangshan people and horses, we may not be able to leave."

Gao Qing didn't know that there was Youzhou in front of him, but how could he see the duck flying? He shook his head and said, "General Liu, look at the front, the rebels can no longer run. Only if we work harder, we will definitely catch them. As long as we make a quick decision, it will not attract the attention of Liangshan people, and even if they bring people here, we have retired."

Liu Yanzong also wanted to persuade him that Gao Qing had grabbed the reins and chased him again.

Liu Yanzong had no choice but to urge people to catch up.

At this time, the people in front of him have also reached the end of the crossbow. Wanyan Lou's room and the guards are better, but Wanyan Baokang and Baoshu brothers are not good.

Wanyan Baokang hasn't been to the barracks for a long time, and his kung fu has been put down, not to mention Wanyan Baoshu. It's a miracle that he can persist until now. It is estimated that if he runs any more, he doesn't need to kill Gao Qing's descendants, and he will be exhausted.

Wanyan Lou room couldn't help sighing. He was favored by the former emperor and entrusted by his old boss. Let's repay them with this life!

turned his head to Wanyan Baokang and said, "Let's go first to protect the little prince!" Let me resist for the last time.

Wanyan Baokang still doesn't know the critical situation. There are only dozens of people on his side. No matter how brave Wanyan Lou is, he can't defeat thousands of troops.

But he didn't dare to stay here and wait to die. He reluctantly nodded and urged the horse to move on. Suddenly, I felt that the horse staggered, and then ran a few more steps, and finally staggered down on the snow.

It turned out that this horse couldn't carry Wanyan Baokang and Baoshu brothers, and finally died here. And the Wanyan Baokang brothers also fell to the ground.

Now Wanyan Lou is also stupid, and the pursuers are close at hand. What's the difference between falling down and dying at this time?

When I saw that the pursuers were getting closer and closer, and even the ferocious expression on Gao Qingji's face could be seen clearly, I suddenly heard a deafening sound coming from the mountain beams, and then I saw that a wave seemed to open in the pursuers, and countless military horses mixed together. And this is just the beginning. Countless loud noises kept coming from the mountain beams, and then kept blooming in the pursuers.

Fire cannon! This is the explosion of artillery, and it was the Liangshan people who came to save us.

Wanyan Lou and others felt the cuteness of the Central Plains for the first time in their lives. Looking back at the chasers who had been in chaos, thinking about the desperate escape all the way, everyone's tears almost fell.

In fact, Han Shizhong had already ambushed here. After receiving an urgent letter from Song Qing, he knew that it was a little late to send troops. It's not that he can't save his life, but that he knows that if he leads troops to rush up, he can't completely annihilate the enemy except for the melee. That's why he set an ambush here to destroy the golden soldiers who chased Wanyan Baokang in one fell swoop.

After the purpose of the artillery was achieved, Liang Shan's charge horn blew up. Then he saw countless Liangshan iron horses emerging from behind the mountain beams and killing the golden soldiers in a mess.

It was also a fight without any suspense. When 10,000 pursuers chased Yan Lou's room, they had lost 3,000 to 4,000 people, and it was a time when people were tired.

A round of dense artillery has destroyed all their fighting spirit. How can we talk about attacking Liang Shan's iron cavalry? The war ended in less than two hours.

In addition to Liu Yanzong leading more than 100 people to escape, the whole army was destroyed. Gao Qing's descendants were not killed by artillery, but they also became prisoners.

Han Shizhong ordered several big carriages to come and let Wanyan Baokang and his party sit on it.

Wan Loushi can still hold on, and at the same time, he doesn't want the people of the Central Plains to look down on him. He hugged Han Shizhong, who was riding on the horse to command the people and horses to clean the battlefield, and said, "General Han, I will never forget the kindness of saving my life."

Han Shizhong wanted to tell him that he was not here to save him, but it was just a coincidence. But Han Shizhong is kind and will not ridicule others.

nodded and said, "General Lou's words are serious. Please take me to Youzhou for a rest! The princess is already on the way and will arrive soon.

Wanyan Loushi knew that the princess in Han Shizhong's mouth was the princess Wanyan Keer. When he heard that the princess was coming, he couldn't help but be overjoyed. Finally, a person who could take care of the matter came. Otherwise, if they lived in the place of the Central Plains people, they would think they had betrayed Dajin!

Under the escort of Liangshan Iron Horse, the group came to Youzhou City.

In fact, there are not no real women in Youzhou, but they are all secluded people or businessmen.

Song Qing said to the people below earlier that the Han nation is an inclusive nation. As long as you really get along with us, we will welcome you, no matter which nation you are.

After arranging Wanyan Lou and others to live, Han Shizhong began to transfer people.

Today's three-sided general system is still Lin Chong, but senior generals such as Yue Fei and Han Shizhong have high autonomy, and the actual mobilization of them is not less than 50,000.

From this point, we can see Song Qing's broad mind. And naturally, it is the loyalty of the generals and soldiers to die for their confidants.

Han Shizhong is a natural general. From the sudden death of Wu Qimai alone, he felt that the prince was afraid that he would use troops against the State of Jin.

So he told Lin Chong what he thought while mobilized people and horses and materials, waiting for the arrival of Song Qing.

More than ten days later, Dou Niang accompanied Ke'er to arrive first.

Ke'er hasn't seen her younger brother Baoshu for nearly two years. At the same time, she suffered the sudden death of her father, so the sister and brother cried after meeting.

After crying enough, Ke'er thanked Wanyan Baokang and Wanyan Loushi Wanfu. If it hadn't been for their life-saving, the sister and brother would not have seen each other again in this life.

Baoshu's age novel doesn't understand anything, but Baokang understands everything.

cried and said, "My sister must avenge her uncle! It was Wanyan Gao's dog thief who killed the emperor's uncle. His accomplice Gao Qingyi had been caught by General Han and asked his sister to order him to kill him thousands of times to comfort his uncle's spirit in heaven.

Although Ke'er was anxious, she would not interfere in her husband's military affairs. After comforting Baokang and others, she told them that her husband Liang Wang would not ignore this matter. Please wait patiently.

Dou Niang is a person who knows Song Qing's thoughts, so she also assured everyone on behalf of King Liang.

After meeting her brother, Ke'er began to prepare a ceremony, build an altar outside the city, and sacrifice her father's spirit in heaven.

A few days later, Lin Chong was appointed by Song Qing to visit Youzhou in person. Before Lin Chong came, Song Qing had instructed Lin Chong's specific actions in Youzhou through a secret letter, and asked Lin Chong and Han Shizhong to jointly formulate a plan to repay him.

Song Qing has already formulated a strategy to attack Xixia first, so it is impossible to use troops against the State of Jin on a large scale. The purpose of sending Lin Chong is to command the army to attack the State of Jin, but this battle must be moderate and stop. This is not only an explanation for Ke'er, but also a tentative attack on the State of Jin.

The weather has not turned warm, and it is not suitable to send troops at this time. Song Qing was unable to split up for the time being because of the issuance of paper money, so Lin Chong and Han Shizhong drew up a battle plan and asked the two princesses to go back first.

Ke'er wanted to kill her enemy very much, but when she came to miss Luoyang's son, she knew that she was not suitable to stay here, so she shed tears to worship her father again and returned to Luoyang with her brother Baoshu and Baokang.

Wanyan Loushi said that he would stay in the Liangshan army. On the one hand, news came that because he defected to Liangshan, his family had been killed by Wanyan Gao, and those who died after being hunted down by Gao Qing were all his brothers and sisters for many years.

For the deep blood feud of his family and brothers, he said that he would kill back to Zhongdu with Liangshan's army.

Because Gao Qing was captured alive, the inside guard quickly knew the context of the matter from his mouth, so the war had not yet begun, but a propaganda offensive had begun.
