Rebirth: Overthrow Song Dynasty

In the early morning of the second day, when the sky was getting dark, Zhao Chen had already woken up!

He headed outside enthusiastically, and Yue Fei, Wang Gui, and Zhang Xian followed behind him! These three people now have no official or job, they are equivalent to his bodyguards! With such three innate masters as bodyguards, there are not many people in the world who can kill him!

These days, Zhao Chen was too bored in the small courtyard. Only today can he really appreciate the scenery of Tongguan City!

Tongguan City is a military city, there are no ordinary people here except soldiers! The area of ​​the city is not very large, but the height and thickness of the city walls are almost comparable to those of Kaifeng City! Throughout the dynasties, Tongguan has been continuously improved. Even after the establishment of the Song Dynasty, the strategic position of Tongguan was not as important as before, but the emperors of the Song Dynasty also repaired it several times!

It is the second day of February, and the weather in the northwest is still very cold!

When he first got up in the morning, Zhao Chen felt that the sky was gloomy, and when they wandered around Tongguan City for a while, when they came to Tongguan City Wall, there was actually light snow fluttering in the sky!

The snowflakes fell on Zhao Chen's body, and Zhao Chen felt a burst of coolness!

He looked into the distance, and saw that the mountains in the distance were also covered with snow, but the snow was accumulated in winter, and it couldn't be melted in a short time!

"The scenery of the northern country, thousands of miles of ice, thousands of miles of snow drifting! Looking inside and outside the Great Wall, only the vastness, the ups and downs of the river, suddenly lost its torrential flow! The mountain dances with silver snakes, the original galloping wax figure, trying to compete with the gods! Now, I can truly I really comprehend the heroic temperament of this poem! That great man back then really swallowed mountains and rivers, and was able to write such a majestic poem!" Zhao Chen looked at the distance, but he thought of this song "Qinyuan Chunxue" in his heart!

In his previous life, as a high school student, he didn't know what was good about this poem, but now, as the crown prince and the heir apparent of the country, after going through so many things, he finally truly understood this poem. I can feel the cleansing of this first word to my soul!

"There is no Great Wall here, only Tongguan here! I am not that great man, and I don't have my own army under my command! But my status is different. Sooner or later, I will control this country, and I will realize my dream!" Zhao Chen secretly said.

He turned around and continued to move forward with Yue Fei, Wang Gui, and Zhang Xian. The snow was getting bigger and bigger, and the weather was getting colder and colder!

This Tongguan city is extremely important. There were originally many soldiers on the city wall, but since the heavy snow fell, the soldiers have hidden themselves, and not a single soldier can be seen on the city wall!

"Is this the Zhejia Army? The Zhejia Army, the main faction of the strongest Western Army in the Song Dynasty?" Zhao Chen couldn't help asking when he walked to a crenel.

"Your Highness, relying on such a Zhejia army may not be able to defend Tongguan!" Yue Fei frowned and said.

"Oh?" Zhao Chen was taken aback.

"This Zhe family army is not as good as Liu Guangshi's Liu family army, or even the many rebels outside Xiangzhou City! Although Tongguan is a dangerous pass in the world, it depends on who will guard it! Relying on such a Zhe family army to guard Tongguan , I'm afraid that once the golden soldiers arrive, they will flee!" Yue Fei said.

"You mean it's still very dangerous to stay in Tongguan?" Zhao Chen said with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"Yes! It's very dangerous! When His Highness was discussing with all the adults yesterday, he thought that the Zhejia army could defend Tongguan, but now it seems that this is impossible! Your Highness, we must leave Tongguan immediately!" Yue Fei said.

"Am I going to run for my life again?" Zhao Chen asked with a wry smile.

"There is no way around this! Your Highness, keeping your usefulness is the most important thing now! Why don't we go and ask for a bargain now and let him escort us out of Tongguan! Your Highness is the prince, and his status is precious, how can it be possible?" Staying in a pass all the time? As His Highness, he should be in Chang'an City now!" Yue Fei said.

"Let's wait a little longer, the Jurchens haven't come to Shanzhou yet, they are still a long way from Tongguan! Let's take a look again! If the Jurchens come to Shanzhou, Tongguan is still unreliable, so we can escape Here!" Zhao Chen said.

The heavy snow was flying, and Zhao Chen's body had turned white. At this moment, he felt like this snowflake, fluttering and involuntary! He is obviously the prince of the Great Song Dynasty, and his status is extremely noble, but he is living an incomparably worthless life! The Jurchen wanted to kill him, her ninth uncle Kang Wang Zhao Gou wanted to kill him, and Zhe Keqiu and others wanted to coerce the emperor to make the princes!

"I'm not as good as an ordinary person! Forget it, in the troubled times, it's good to be able to survive! I still have to be strong and accumulate strength. One day in the future, I will definitely be able to truly control my own destiny!" Zhao Chen said A look of determination appeared in his eyes!

*** ***

This snow has not stopped for five days. On the seventh day of February, a group of cavalry arrived from Tongguan! These cavalry were dressed in the costumes of Song soldiers, and they were the soldiers who could be sent out to investigate the news!

Hearing that these people came back, Zhe Keqiu hurriedly asked these people to come to see him!

"Have you inquired about the Jurchen news?" Zhe Keqiu immediately asked those people kneeling on the ground.

"General, the Jurchens are attacking Shanzhou! I'm afraid Shanzhou will fall soon!" said a lieutenant general.

"Sure enough...they have already attacked Shanzhou!" Zhe Keqiu said blankly.

Shanzhou is now the Sanmenxia area in Henan, which is not far from Tongguan! If it is captured there, with the speed of the Jurchen cavalry, they may be able to reach the bottom of Tongguan within two or three days! Originally there was a roaring Yellow River next to Tongguan, but now the weather is cold and the Yellow River is frozen, there is no way to stop the Jurchens!

"Father, I have already sent someone to inform Yao Gu that Yao Gu has already brought Yao's army towards Tongguan!" Orihiko next to him demanded.

"Very good! It seems that we are going to retreat from Tongguan!" Zhe Keqiu gritted his teeth and said.

He was very reluctant, for him, Tongguan was his own foundation, and he had been operating here for a long time, but now he wants to give it up to outsiders! That is also helpless, the Jurchens are coming menacingly, he must not be the opponent of the Jurchens!

"That's all, that's all... keep the country, even if there is no firewood! As long as the Zhejia army is still in my hands, as long as the prince is still in my control, it will be very easy to turn around in the future! Yan Zhi, You immediately send someone to notify His Highness the Crown Prince that we are leaving Tongguan!" Zhe Keqiu said.

Now Zhe Yanzhi had left, Zhe Keqiu stood in his room and sighed long.

*** ***

Zhao Chen is still practicing literature and martial arts these days. At the same time, he pays close attention to the news of the Jurchens, but he, the prince, has no one else available except Li Gang, Yue Fei and others, and the Zhejia army around him does not obey his orders. , so he doesn't get much useful information at all!

According to the results of his discussions with Li Gang, Yue Fei and others, they can only judge whether the Jurchens are coming based on the behavior of the soldiers of the Zhejia Army!

Those spies who could be expected had just returned from the Shanzhou area, and the news had not yet spread, so the city of Tongguan was still very peaceful, and Zhao Chen and the others were still doing their own things calmly!

"His Royal Highness, please send someone to report, let us pack up and follow them to leave Tongguan!" Zhao Chen was studying with Li Gang when Yue Fei broke in suddenly, said.

"Leaving Tongguan?" Zhao Chen was taken aback.

They originally wanted to leave Tongguan, but they didn't expect Zhekeqiu to ask them to leave Tongguan.

"What happened, why did they let us leave Tongguan?" Li Gang asked in surprise.

"It is said that the Jurchens have captured Shanzhou! Zhe Keqiu doesn't want to guard Tongguan at all. He has already decided to evacuate, and we are naturally asked to evacuate!" Yue Fei said.

Zhao Chen was writing at first, but at this moment he put down the pen in his hand, and said with a wry smile: "This discount can be found. Is he as timid as a mouse, or does he have self-knowledge? When defending the Yellow River before, he 'fleeed at the sound of the drum'. Now It's 'watching the wind and fleeing'!"

Li Gang snorted coldly: "He just wants to preserve his own strength! Hmph, I thought that after taking refuge in him, even though his thoughts were impure, we would be able to live in peace, but we didn't expect to run for our lives again!"

Zhao Chen said: "Since that's the case, let's tidy up and follow him! He has more than 100,000 troops under his command, so it's safer to follow him!"

Li Gang nodded, with a gloomy expression, and said: "Your Highness, I am afraid that after the loss of Tongguan, Chang'an and other places will also be conquered by the Jurchens! At that time, the whole of Shaanxi will fall, where can Your Highness go?"

"This..." Zhao Chen sighed softly, and said, "We can't help ourselves! If that happens, we will have to go to Sichuan! I don't believe that the Jurchens will go all the way to Shuguan and enter Sichuan!"

He was not in a very good mood, just stabilized, and the road to escape was about to begin again!

When they finished packing, Zhe Keqiu, Zhe Yanzhi and others were already waiting for them!

It was snowing heavily, and they rushed on their way in the snow! In addition to these generals, most of the soldiers and horses stationed in Tongguan also fled with them, and only a thousand people stayed here to guard Tongguan!
