The Struggle of the Reborn Prince

Chapter 8 The Disaster Causes One Person

When Zhao Tong learned that there was a surge in calls for peace talks between the DPRK and China, he wrote a letter to oppose it and rushed to the capital to cast his vote. And just when the Song Dynasty was hesitant to accept the terms of the peace talks, the Kingdom of Jin was also preparing for the peace talks.

The debate over whether to send troops was red-faced. The previous escalating peace negotiation conditions were not what Zhao Tao had expected. It was Hanli who was no longer playing "fraudulent peace", but it was the repeated success of blackmail that made the Jurchens' ambitions begin to expand again.

The first war launched by Wanyan Wu Qimai, who had just been in office for just one year, basically failed. With the help of Guo Yaoshi, Wanyan Han's East Route Army managed to capture Yanjing Mansion and crossed the Yellow River.

Bianjing City, but failed to enter the city due to Li Gang's stubborn resistance. In the end, through coaxing and deception, he obtained a large amount of war compensation and the promise to cede three towns, which was indeed an unexpected gain.

But Hanli was not only half happy. He was robbed as soon as he entered his house. He lost ten million taels of silver, the Prince of Song Dynasty as a hostage was lost, the captive slaves ran away, and he suffered more than ten thousand casualties.

Available

I don’t know who robbed them. And none of the three towns promised to be ceded by the Song Dynasty was obtained. After receiving the emperor’s instructions, the guards in Hejian and Zhongshan refused to hand over the city, making Hanli unable to steal it.

The chicken cannot eat the rice.

Not to mention Zong Han's West Route Army, it was not smooth from the moment it was sent out. It was intercepted by Can Liao in Yingzhou and blocked for more than ten days. It also suffered heavy casualties. Zong Han was unable to fight back.

If it weren't for Yin Shu's capable partial division to attack Daizhou, I'm afraid the West Route Army's attack would have been aborted.

After all the hard work, they arrived in Taiyuan, but after fighting for half a year, they couldn't even capture the small city of Taiyuan, let alone join forces in Bianjing. At the end of the day, they also asked Prince Yan's Hezhong Army to make a move. Not only did they watch the boiling

The cooked duck flew away. Still

He was driven out of Taiyuan and lost all the land he occupied. If the emperor of the Song Dynasty hadn't lost his mind and transferred King Yan, he would have been almost driven out of Daizhou. He returned home in despair. Fortunately, in the end, in the Song Dynasty, he was driven out of Taiyuan.

The Forbidden Army regained some face.

The West Route Army didn't catch much, but its losses were far greater than those of the East Route Army. More than half of the troops were lost. Wanyan Jianmu died, Wanyan Balisu was lost, and Yelu Mawu rebelled. If Zhongjing hadn't sent reinforcements, I'd be afraid.

They couldn't survive to the end. This can be said to be the biggest loss suffered by the Jurchens since they started their army. Zong Han suffered the biggest setback!

After surviving the scorching summer heat, for ethnic groups like the Jurchens who have lived in the north for a long time, autumn is the season when war horses are fat and strong, and food and grass are abundant. Moreover, the climate is cool, which is very suitable for Jurchen soldiers to fight. Therefore, on August 1 every year,

September is the best time for the Jurchen tribe to launch a war, and of course Wu Qimai was not willing to let go of this opportunity.

After eating honey, nothing tastes sweet anymore; after getting used to sleeping on Simmons, you can no longer sleep on a hard bed! The Jurchens used to live in a primitive society. This time they stepped into the slave society and became the master. Rice

They can eat whatever they want and spend their money as they please. And all this comes from plundering. Robbery has become their habit, and war has become a part of their lives.

In order to stimulate domestic demand and improve people's living standards, GDP will hit a new high in the coming year. At this moment, Wanyan Wu's pockets are empty, and the Jurchen soldiers have rested for more than half a year. Of course, a new war needs to be launched. So Wu begged to buy the East.

, the marshals of Xiliang Road recalled the

Beijing discussed the dispatch of troops, and his plan was still to divide the troops into two groups, led by Wo Libu and Nianhan to go south. In order to be familiar with the road, he planned to capture Taiyuan first, wipe out three towns in Hebei, pacify the two rivers, and then go to Bianliang.

No more worries!

Ori didn't know that the last time he led his army to retreat, it was extremely dangerous. If any of the Song generals disobeyed the emperor's orders and led his army to cover up and kill him, it was still unknown whether he could sit here peacefully. What's more, there was a surprise attack on him on the way.

There has been no news from that water bandit. If he repeats his old tricks, he will not be busy in vain. So when he heard the plan, he thought it was reasonable, so he kept silent.

But when Zong Han heard that he quit, he became furious and said sternly: "Tokyo is the fundamental place of the Song people. If it is captured, the land of the two rivers will be destroyed. The last time I failed, it was only because I could not visit the city in person.

This time I will bring my own troops to defeat you."

"Nianhan, are you sure you can capture Taiyuan?" Wanyan Xieye asked.

"This... we are sure that the army in Hezhong has retreated, and King Yan has also left Hedong. Li Gang and his like cannot stop the advance of our Jin army. This time we send troops to defeat them in a single battle!" Zong Han said vaguely.

"Oh, that's it, but I heard that King Yan has gone to Beijing to be promoted to Privy Council Member, so are you still sure to capture Bianjing?" Hanli was a little unhappy after not listening to Zong Han's words.

It was because Li Gang defended Bianjing that he failed to capture it, but you said that Li Gang couldn't defeat you. Aren't you trying to belittle me and elevate himself in a different way?

"It should be possible!" Zong Han thought for a moment and replied vaguely.

"Haha, Nianhan, as a marshal, you said such words. The use of troops is a big deal, but you treat it as a child's play. What do you mean it should be possible? We go out with all the troops of the country. If we lose our troops and generals, how will we explain to the emperor when we return empty-handed?

, explain it to the soldiers!" Han Li couldn't stand Zong Han's arrogance long ago, so he seized on the topic and said sarcastically.

"Second Prince, you did not return empty-handed, but where did the 10 million taels of reward money given by the Song Dynasty go? Could it be that you were embezzled? Where are the three ceded towns? I heard that you are here again

We used this to blackmail the people of Song Dynasty, and we haven't seen even a tael of tax money from them!" Zong Han was furious when he heard this, thinking that he was laughing at him for having killed so many people and consuming so much money and food.

He didn't catch the fish, so he started to uncover his scars.

"Hmph, I have always suspected that the water bandits who robbed you on the way were pretended to be the remnant Liao Dezhou Army. Their firearms were sharp and they bombarded the camp with artillery. Although they changed their clothes, they fought in the same way as the Dezhou Army we encountered under Yuanzhou City.

"Back then, our troops and horses, which were several times theirs, were defeated by their hands, let alone this time they attacked by surprise!" Han Libu snorted coldly. Many of the people here had participated in the Battle of Yuanzhou and listened for a while.

silence.

"No, the Dezhou Army in the remnant Liao Dynasty does not have a naval force, and they are even less likely to have large ships that can enter the sea. But I suspect that they are all related to one person!" Wanyan Xiyin said, "Think about it, we are here

Are the Dezhou Army encountered by Yingzhou and the Hezhong Army of the Song Dynasty exactly the same in terms of weapons and combat methods?"

"Gu Shen, you mean to say that the river bandits in the river, the Dezhou army and the water bandits that Han Li did not encounter all came from the same source, and we were all defeated by one person?" Zong Han thought for a while and said...(To be continued
