Chapter 120: Peak Fire Shines East of the River, Three Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains, People’s Blood and Tears!.

On the second day of September in the sixth year of Xuanhe, after Yan Zongwang and Yan Zonghan became commanders, 180,000 Jin troops, like tigers, wolves and locusts, went south from Yunzhou three days later, and on the fifth day of September, the Jin army attacked the border city of Shuozhou in the Song Dynasty.

On another three days, on the eighth day of early September, the Jin army conquered Daizhou.

On September 13, Yingzhou, the defender of Weizhou, fearing the might of the Jin army, surrendered without a fight. On September 15, the Jin army arrived at the city of Taiyuan.

The eunuch Tan Shun fled back to Bianliang in fear of battle.

Zhang Xiaochun, the prefect of Taiyuan, and Wang Yu, the commander of Hedong’s Xuanfu Division, fought to block the Jin army from moving south, but they were outnumbered and besieged in Taiyuan.

The Jin army attacked Taiyuan for three days, leaving the general Yan Lou and leading a 50,000 Jin army to besiege the city. While besieging Taiyuan, while guarding the retreat of this Jin army.

Immediately afterwards, another 130,000 Jin troops, led by the two generalissaries of the Jin State, Yan Zongwang and Yan Zonghan, descended from Taiyuan, Hedong.

Divided into multiple routes to attack and plunder the capital of the Great Song Prefecture.

Along the way, the prefecture capital was either attacked by the Jin army or surrendered to the Jin army.

Only a few were able to defend the city under the leadership of the local garrison or Zhizhou and Zhixian.

Most of the Jin troops in the south were mainly iron horses, and the officials and troops of the prefectures not only had a decline in armament and had not fought for many years, but also mostly infantry. These local infantry of the Great Song Dynasty, who have not fought much, are not at all the combined enemies of the Jin army when it comes to field battles!

Therefore, except for Taiyuan and a few prefectures and counties that held on, almost all of the other prefectures and counties were trampled by the iron feet of the Jin Army!

In particular, those scattered villages outside the city were all burned, looted, and trampled by the Jin army. If you resist a little, the whole village will be slaughtered!

Many women and women were abducted after being humiliated by the Jin army.

There was the woman with the child, and the child in her arms was directly trampled to death by the Jin Jun horse!

The old and weak and the men were driven by the Jin army to fill in the ravines and force them to help the Jin army attack the city that did not surrender.

There was the soft-hearted and timid defenders, who saw that the Jin army drove the people of the Great Song Dynasty to fill the ravines for cattle and sheep, and they were also terrified, either they were frightened and abandoned the city, or they surrendered in fear.

The entire Hedong Road is full of smoke, wailing everywhere, like hell on earth!

Because the Jin State almost moved the country this time, the number of troops dispatched to attack the Song Dynasty was three times more than the southward strength of the Jin Army’s Western Road Army in history, so the tragedy of Hedong Road was far beyond the time of Jingkang in history!

In less than a month, almost all of Hedong Road, except for Taiyuan, were captured by the Jin army! And the Great Song Imperial Court of Bianliang, after receiving this news, immediately became stupid!

One after another, the documents for emergency and help, as well as the fleeing people of Hedong, poured into Hebei Road and Gyeonggi from Hedong, exposing the tragic image and danger of Hedong to Bianliang and the people of the world!

And those people who fled to Hedong almost all heard Chai Hao’s announcement before, and felt that the Jin army would soon go south from Hedong, and those who were prepared could have the lives of those who were fortunate to escape.

As for those who heard the news, but because the Great Song Chengping had been peaceful for a long time, the Hedong Prefecture and the people who did not take things seriously suffered a catastrophe!

When they were ravaged and plundered by the Jin army, they all regretted not starting out, regretted not listening to the reminder of Youzhou Wang Chaihao, regretted believing that the imperial court had formed an alliance with the Jin state, and there was no need to worry about the ghost words of the Jin army!

When many people were taken away by the Jin army and driven to attack the city, the mouths of these people were all scolding the Great Song Imperial Court!

Zhang Xiaochun, the prefect of Taiyuan who let the city of Taiyuan hold on, and Wang Yu, the commander-in-chief, also looked helpless and bitter.

After they learned the news spread by Chai Hao and the spies of Youzhou, they fortunately made some preparations in Taiyuan City, and almost all the people outside Taiyuan City moved in.

It also reminded the prefectures of Hedong outside Taiyuan.

But many state capitals take their reminders as a deaf ear.

Some corrupt officials who were incompetent, who only knew how to sneak around and beat horses and mean the people, even took the reminders of Wang Yu and Zhang Xiaochun as evidence of their collusion with Chai Hao, and wrote to the DPRK to impeach them in order to make meritorious promotions.

It’s just that before their impeachment was approved, the Jin army quickly sent troops and set the entire Hedong on fire! Zhang Xiaochun and Wang Yu, who were impeached by them, held Taiyuan because they were prepared.

As for the other officials in Hedong who were staring at them, they had either abandoned the people and fled, or they had already surrendered to the Jin people and became the dogs of the Jin people.

Some even helped Jin Jun lead the way, looting wealth and grain and grass to the rich people under his rule, and providing them to Jin Jun! The entire Hedong Road, except for a few cities such as Taiyuan, is almost rotten!

When the beacons and tragic images of Hedong passed through the mouths of those people who fled from Hedong, spread throughout the neighboring Hebei, Gyeonggi and Bianliang, the world was shocked!

Many people in Gyeonggi and Hebei fled to Bianliang in panic.

No wonder they are so, in the eyes of the people, if the enemy country invades, then the capital of the Great Song Dynasty, as the place where the emperor is located, I am afraid that it will be the safest place in the world.

There were also some extremely intelligent people who saw the unreliability of the Great Song Dynasty, and not only did not go south to Bianliang, but went north and fled to the territory of Wang Chaihao of Youzhou.

They believe that only the hero of Youzhou Wang Chai Hao can fight against the Jin Army and protect the people! In Bianliang City, it was even more panicked and panicked.

The people of Hebei all fled to Bianliang, and many rich doctors in Bianliang left Bianliang and fled to the south! Especially the rulers in power such as Zhao He and Cai Fu were even more dumbfounded.

Again panic and fear, simply at a loss!

……

……

I don’t know how to deal with it!

At this time, they found out that Chai Hao’s reminder was correct!

Jin Guo really pretended to agree to an alliance, but in fact he was eyeing Da Song, a fat sheep with a fat appearance and a weak inside! The more news came from all over the place, the more the monarchs in Bianliang City became more panicked!

On September 30, a seventeen-horse Jurchen iron horse was responsible for exploring the way for the main force of the Jin army, and entered Hebei Road Cizhou from Hedong.

Li Kan, the commander of the Magnetic Prefecture, saw that the Jin army only had seventeen horses, and felt that this was an opportunity to make meritorious achievements. So he led two thousand forbidden troops in the city and went out of the city to block.

Li Kan prides himself on being a general who knows soldiers, and the two thousand Hebei forbidden troops under his command are all armor-piercing, and they are also well-trained on weekdays, and there are many archers, which are relatively visible in the Hebei forbidden army.

As a result, two thousand forbidden army armor soldiers, who were ridden by seventeen Jurchen iron horses, charged in a zigzag shape.

The Jurchen iron horse took the lead with seven horses, and galloped and shot, and the murderous aura of galloping horses suddenly made the front soldiers of the Cizhou Forbidden Army loosen their positions because of fear.

Immediately, the other ten Jurchen cavalrymen, five horses on each wing, shot and killed the flank of the two thousand forbidden troops. Suddenly let two thousand people collapse!

The Jurchen iron horse chased and killed, and shot an arrow to a Great Song Forbidden Army until all seventeen people’s arrow bags were empty!

Immediately, they rushed in from behind the deserters with flails, iron bones and other weapons, even if it was the Song army wearing iron armor, it was hit by such a blunt weapon, it was all shattered, and there was death!

In this battle, the seventeen horsemen of the Jin State did not fold one, and the two thousand forbidden troops in Cizhou, counting those who trampled on each other and died, killed thousands of people! For a time, the capital of Hebei Prefecture near Cizhou was all afraid of gold like tigers!

And after Yan Zongwang and Yan Zonghan, saw that the Great Song army was so wasteful.

Then he no longer hesitated, and went directly out of Hedong and went straight to Bianliang and some rich cities in Hebei! When the news reached Bianliang, the Great Song Emperor Zhao He was directly frightened and passed out after a stroke!

On the border of Xiongzhou, after Chai Hao learned the news, he let out a long sigh, and his eyes instantly turned red: “I thought I had reminded Zhao Song that Hedong would be much better if he was prepared.” ”

But this Daoless Weak Song, from Bianliang to the place, is all rotten! We all know to pull a soldier and horse Chen Bing Xiongzhou to block me Chai Hao.

“But I didn’t know to pull a soldier and horse to Hedong to guard against the Jin Kingdom.” The unconscious monarch and dog official are in the dynasty, but let the innocent people shed blood and tears! The sky above the heads of the people of the world should also be changed…”

Chai Hao said word by word, turned over on the horse, and clenched the Canglong Yao Sun Gun: “Go!” South! Kill the golden dog with me, save the sky! ”

“Along the road, regardless of the Song Army and the Jin Army, whoever dares to block it will be killed without amnesty!”
