I am Da Song

Chapter 57 The Crisis of the Golden Army

After arriving at Nanxun Gate in the outer city after going through all kinds of thrills, Yelu Huaiyi turned his head and looked at the dark city, feeling terrified.

Hundreds of elite Khitan iron cavalry encountered so many ambushes just walking along the straight imperial street, and three clansmen who were able to recruit and fight were killed.

Yelu Huaiyi couldn't imagine that if a hundred soldiers stayed in Tokyo for a month, how many of them would escape this area alive.

No wonder the southerners always claim that they have millions of soldiers. The millions of soldiers and civilians in Tokyo City are fighting day and night, everywhere, which is really shocking.

If the Jurchens didn't increase their troops and slaughter the city, this battle would really be impossible to fight.

Leaving Nanxun Gate, Yelu Huaiyi immediately went to Qingcheng where the Prime Minister was stationed.

The so-called Qingcheng is a fasting palace set up by the Song Dynasty to worship the heavens. In the past, when the emperor went out of the city to worship the heavens, he would bathe and fast in Qingcheng the day before.

When Yelu Huaiyi arrived, the Prime Minister Nianhan was having a heated conversation with the Supervisory Army, the Capital Supervisor and a large number of Jurchen generals.

Even Marshal Wu Li, who had been gloomy and silent for the past few days, was here, but he was tired and sat aside with his eyes closed.

The scene in front of him stunned Yelu Huaiyi for a moment, there was no such oppressive atmosphere in the army a few days ago.

The big gold soldiers who besieged the capital of the enemy country, the arrogant soldiers, the momentum is like a rainbow, arrogant and arrogant.It seems that the world is at your fingertips, wealth and beautiful women are within reach.

Why in just a few days, the Marshal on the right was sluggish.The soldiers on the left were also full of impetuousness and hostility.

Even with the presence of an outsider like Yelu Huaiyi, the Jurchen generals still quarreled fiercely.

The eldest son of the prime minister, King Zhenzhu, She Yema slapped the table excitedly, and shouted: "The root of everything lies in that dog emperor of the Nanban who broke his promise! Zhen! Zhen! This dog-footed Zhen! He should have been killed in the first place. It's not too late to kill him now, we should attack the city with all our strength."

The Marshal on the right could not leave the veins on his forehead, he suppressed his anger and closed his eyes.

But the brother who has been taken care of by him, the fourth son of Jin Taizu Wanyan Aguda, Jin Wushu (Wanyan Zongbi) couldn't stand it anymore, stood up to confront him, and scolded: "Shut up your dog mouth that smells worse than dung. Tokyo resisted so resolutely without killing Lord Song. If Lord Song really died in our army camp back then, the city of Tokyo would be like a raging fire. The degree of resistance would be a hundred times more intense than it is today."

She Yema roared: "If it wasn't for your Eastern Army's force to release Lord Song back, would you be so passive today?"

"Fart! When was it not our East Route Army who cleaned up the mess for your West Route Army? It was an emperor of the Song Dynasty who made the situation so passive? It was your West Route Army who suffered repeated defeats. First you were defeated in Tokyo, and then Tongguan Fang Fang has been losing in a row. Shanxi Xuanfu envoy Fan Zhixu with 20 cavalry, is about to capture Tongguan! Otherwise, an emperor of the Song Dynasty with a remnant army of [-] can easily be captured."

Facing Jin Wushu's humiliation, She Yema became furious, pulled out his saber, and said, "How is your East Army? In Hebei, Zongze lost [-] consecutive battles. Now Zongze's tens of thousands of troops have gathered On the bank of the Yellow River, King Kang gathered a large number of troops to detour towards Shandong. Since you look down on my soldiers from the West Route Army, how dare you fight me with swords?"

Hearing all this, Yelu Huaiyi only felt his eyes go dark, and he was in the mood of running away.

No wonder the Jurchens have been unwilling to send a large army into Tokyo to slaughter the city. In the current situation, the Jin army will soon be surrounded on all sides!The west, north, and east sides are all banners and flags, and the army of King Qin is gathered in the army. Only the troops from the two lakes and two provinces in the south have not yet arrived in Kaifeng.

It is extremely difficult for the Jin army, which is alone and deep, to be able to block the Qin King's division of the Song Dynasty, so there is no spare power to attack the city!
Nianhan, who had been silent all this time, yelled angrily: "What a waste of noise. Those who know are that we have besieged the enemy army, but those who don't know think that we are besieged by the enemy army in Tokyo."

Surprised by a group of young Jurchen generals, Nianhan looked at Yelu Huaiyi and asked, "What do you have to report?"

Yelu Huaiyi quickly replied: "Minister of the State, the soldiers who participated in the massacre were ambushed by the Nanmanzi. A group of Nanmanzi fought in Taixue and set fire to it. They dragged the Dajin soldiers to the scene of the fire. Few escaped."

As soon as the words fell, there was a sound of gasping for air in the room.Wo Li, who had been closing his eyes to rest his mind, couldn't open his bloodshot eyes, and said with deep emotion: "The mountains and rivers of flesh and blood are not inherent to our race."

The other Jurchens also gasped in amazement. Jin Wushu said with emotion: "The rulers and ministers of the Song Dynasty are weak and cowardly, but the people at the bottom are really loyal and passionate. They set themselves on fire and fought to the death without retreating. I'm afraid it's not necessarily the people of my Dajin clan." can do it."

Shi Yema sneered: "Only increase the ambitions of others and destroy one's own prestige. The Eastern Route Army is going to spread the rhetoric that the Song Dynasty controls the Song people again."

Yelu Huaiyi bowed his head silently, looking at his nose with his eyes, and his heart with his nose. It is best for these Jurchens to keep arguing and never pay attention to himself.

But in his heart, Yelu Huaiyi really agreed with the idea of ​​the East Route Army.At present, all the strategic goals of the Jin army's southward invasion have been achieved. It would be the best if the Song people can be controlled by the Song Dynasty and the war can be ended.

The Khitan people no longer want to enter the city of Tokyo and spend their flesh and blood with the millions of soldiers and civilians in this city.

Nianhan, the Prime Minister of the country, did not participate in the quarrel of a group of people.Unlike Wo Li, he is also under great pressure.

Although Lord Song was let go, the main responsibility was that he could not leave.But at the beginning, Nianhan also nodded in agreement.

It can only be said that no official of the Jin Dynasty could turn a blind eye to the proposal made by the Song Lord at the beginning.

However, no one expected that after Lord Song returned to Tokyo, his attitude would change so resolutely.

And no one could have expected that in just a few days, the situation would go from unfavorable to such a bad situation.

After thinking for a while, Nianhan said in a deep voice: "The battlefield changes rapidly, and no one can predict it. But my Dajin soldiers, brave and good at fighting, will definitely be able to reverse the situation with the iron horse, bow and sword."

"Since Taizu raised his troops, the situation has been a hundred times worse than it is today. Everywhere, each ministry cleans up the mess and reorganizes the situation."

Before the words fell, Wu Li couldn't help but get up heavily, and turned to leave holding the handle of the knife.Immediately afterwards, a large number of soldiers of the Eastern Route Army got up neatly, with the sound of armor clashing heavily, followed closely behind Wulibu and walked out of the hall.

Walking to the door, Wo Li's deep voice came: "Our warriors will wipe out the Hebei Song Army and disperse Zongze and King Kang. But let's see how your West Route Army repels Fan Zhixu's 20 cavalry."

Step and ride 20!
Yelu Huaiyi's chest was heavy, and the scale was several times larger than that of the eastern and western Jurchens combined.

The Jurchens have to divide their troops, besiege Tokyo, attack the city, and defeat the 20 cavalry.How slim is this winning rate?

Nianhan's face was heavy, and he said: "Lou Shi's departure with the army is to deal with Fan Zhixu's 20-step ride. The Nanmanzi will lie and lie to the world. The so-called 20-step ride is just a title, and then throw it away I am afraid that the number of soldiers and horses is less than half."

Yelu Huaiyi was submissive and did not dare to refute.Even if half of the water is removed, the Xuanfu envoy of Shaanxi still has [-] cavalry in his hands. If he takes down Tongguan and advances all the way east, it will be equally fatal.At that time, the Song army should cooperate with the outside, and the Jin army besieging the city may face a disastrous defeat.

Nianhan said firmly, "In order to prevent the Song army from cooperating with the outside, we must attack the city decisively, so that the Song army dare not show their faces. Therefore, we still need to recruit you to take on the important task of attacking the inner city."
