Your majesty is awesome

Chapter 778: Capture them and then ask if they are from Song Dynasty
It has to be said that He Zhizhi's words deeply resonated with Gao Yongchang's heart, so he personally led the army to leave the capital and go to defend against the invading enemies.

He sent He Zhi as an envoy to go south, and also appointed his trusted general Gao Min to lead [-] elites to escort his family members southward.

Gao Zhen, the magistrate of Chenzhou, was riding his horse outside Chenzhou City to inspect the land that was now part of the Song Dynasty.

The construction and reinforcement work of Chenzhou City Wall has entered the final stage.

From the earth wall that was no more than five feet high in the past, it is now built with bricks and stones mixed with something called cement.

Its texture is as hard as bluestone and is difficult to damage with a sword.

Nowadays, Chenzhou can be called a fortified city. In addition, the dock offshore of Chenzhou is now more like a fortress with excellent offensive and defensive capabilities.

Chenzhou has become a corner, and on the sea near the dock, there are several Song Dynasty warships called cruisers patrolling every day.

The weapons used by these Song warships were extraordinary. They were powerful naval cannons that sounded like thunder, flew a mile or two away, and were powerful as earth-shattering.

Chenzhou City is only a few miles away from the coastline, and it is defended by these Song warships that can swim flexibly in the sea and are astonishingly powerful.

Gao Zhen felt that even if the Liao Kingdom raised [-] troops to attack, they would not be able to pose a fatal threat to the current Chenzhou City.

In addition, he, the magistrate of Chenzhou, has been appointed by the Song Dynasty court.

Today, he is no longer the governor of Chenzhou in the Yuan Dynasty, but the Fuwen Pavilion of the Song Dynasty, with the power to know Chenzhou.

In the Song Dynasty, he could be regarded as an important mid-level official.

Moreover, his eldest son Gao Xun had already won the favor of the Emperor of the Song Dynasty and was allowed to be sent to prison to study. He only needed to study for a period of time before he could become an official in the Song Dynasty.

Now, Gao Xun has already arrived in Bianliang, Tokyo, and has even sent Gao Zhen several letters describing his arrival in Bianliang, Tokyo.

The imperial court immediately contacted him and sent him to the Imperial College to study, and took good care of him.

Moreover, he also made several friends in Bianliang, Tokyo, and some of them even provided him with a lot of help in a foreign land.

Of course, it is also indispensable to describe the prosperity he saw in Bianliang, Tokyo during the Song Dynasty, as well as the rich material life and good cultural atmosphere of the Song Dynasty.

This made Gao Zhen, who was a scholar, feel more and more that it was indeed the wisest choice for him to follow He Zhizhi's words and give up the idea of ​​joining the Jin Kingdom and switch to the Song Dynasty.

The fields outside the city are already a golden color. The rice from Liaodong has reached the harvest season.

Many farmers are harvesting their harvests with joy at the moment.

After they finish harvesting the harvest in their own fields, they can still work for those merchants to get paid.

The days are much better than in the past, and ever since the Song people brought the land of Chenzhou under the rule of the Song State.

A large number of commodities that could only be found in the Song Dynasty appeared in Chenzhou City, making people and merchants from surrounding counties and counties willing to trade here.

Gao Zhen rode along the avenue and soon noticed the noise in the direction of the dock.

He also noticed that there were a large number of Song troops on the pier escorting ox carts towards Chenzhou City.

The leader was none other than General Zhe Keqiu. Gao Zhen rode forward to meet him. After saying hello to Zhe Keqiu, he couldn't help but curiously asked what kind of supplies he needed to escort with his troops, General Zhe.

"These are thunder cannons and flying thunder cannons. Now that Chenzhou City's defenses have been repaired and reinforced, with these sharp weapons, Chenzhou City will be as safe as Mount Tai."

Zhe Keqiu looked at the fifty ox-carts. These ox-carts were either loaded with flying thunder cannons or thunder cannons, or the ammunition used by these two types of artillery.

Moreover, the thunder cannons and flying thunder cannons used by the army are superior to the naval guns of the naval battleships in terms of lethality and range.

This time, a total of twelve flying thunder cannons and thirty thunder cannons were transported, as well as five hundred lightning guns and a large amount of ammunition.

This is also the reason why Liu Fa asked Zhe Keqiu to lead his army to escort him.

#####
Groups of lancers were currently cruising in a radius of a hundred miles outside Chenzhou City.

It is still the standard configuration of one person and two cavalry, and the armor on each soldier is simpler than that of ordinary infantry and cavalry.

In order to save horsepower to the greatest extent and ensure speed.

After arriving in Liaodong, after several months of hard training, these thousand lancers have become extremely familiar with every village and town in the Liaodong Peninsula.

It’s not like there weren’t some blind straight women who wanted to come to Chenzhou to fight in the autumn wind.

But they didn't even have the chance to see Chenzhou City and meet the [-] elite men under Song Army coach Liu Fa.

They suffered heavy losses from those lancers and had to flee in confusion.

If it weren't for Gao Zhang's previous strict orders, the Song Dynasty's current mission would be not to attack. Otherwise, both Han Shizhong and Yao Pingzhong wanted to go to the lairs of those straight female tribes and let them taste the Song Dynasty's revenge.

#####
Just when Zhe Keqiu was escorting the gunpowder weapons into Chenzhou, He Zhi, the deputy prime minister of the Yuan Dynasty, had already met Liu Fa.

"Now that Nuzhi has raised troops brazenly and captured Shenzhou, next, she must control Liaodong and Tokyo and kill Gao Yongchang before she can give up."

"It's natural. One mountain can't accommodate two tigers. What's more, although Gao Yongchang is known as the leader of the Yuan Kingdom, his men are in disarray."

"If it were a certain family, they would definitely not go out of the city to fight fiercely, but would rely on the city defenses of Liao and Tokyo to defend themselves. When the Liao Dynasty established a large army to attack the Nüzhi, they forced the Nüzhi troops to retreat."

"But have you ever thought about the fact that in Liaodong City, all ethnic groups are mixed, and there are even a large number of Khitan people in the city. If there is chaos in the city while resisting the Nvzhi troops' attack..."

He Zhi stood quietly and obediently behind Liu Fa, his eyes fell on the huge sand table in front of him, and he saw the Song Army soldiers pointing to the sand table and expressing their opinions.

Liu Fa listened to the words of his generals and was silent for a long time. Then he nodded to He Zhi and spoke in a deep voice.

"A certain family has [-] capable soldiers and needs to defend Chenzhou."

"If Chenzhou loses, then I, the Song Dynasty, will never have the chance to establish a foothold in Liaodong."

"But if we don't pay attention to it, it will appear that the Song Dynasty has lost the credibility of the suzerain country."

"The only solution now is to send a small number of elites to Liaoyang Mansion to help out..."

Having said this, Liu Fa raised his head and looked at the generals who were all looking over there. Finally, his eyes fell in the direction of Yao Pingzhong and Han Shizhong.

In the blink of an eye, the hearts of Yao Pingzhong and Han Shizhong began to beat wildly...

#####
Jinguo South Road Commander Wanyan Oru shook off the blood on the sword in his hand and looked at the Woli living water that had turned into a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood.

The defeated leader of the Yuan Kingdom, Gao Yongchang, had already fled and headed straight for Liaoyang Mansion. The officers and soldiers of the Yuan Kingdom also fled with him.

When Gao Yongchang was defeated and fled back to Liaoyang City, less than [-] of the [-] troops under his command fled back to Liaoyang City with him.

However, when they arrived at Liaoyang City and were still in shock, the Jin Kingdom's forward cavalry, led by Wanyan Oru, had already reached the bottom of Liaoyang Fucheng.

Looking at the thousands of Jin cavalry outside the city, and then looking at the Yuan Kingdom soldiers on the city wall who had no morale and had no morale, and looked miserable.

Gao Yongchang looked up to the sky and sighed in despair.Although his troops were twice as many as those of the Jin Kingdom, they were defeated by Wanyan Oru in a single battle.

Nowadays, although there are strong cities like Liaoyang Mansion, at this moment, the soldiers and people of the Yuan Dynasty in the city are panicked.

"Where is the Prime Minister?" Looking at the Jin cavalry outside the city, Gao Yongchang gritted his teeth and looked left and right, but did not see the whereabouts of Prime Minister Lu Kun.

All the civil and military personnel present shook their heads to express ignorance. Seeing this, Gao Yongchang angrily cursed.He immediately ordered his confidants to rush to the Prime Minister's Mansion to see where this old dog who was greedy for life and afraid of death was.

As Gao Yongchang's confidant, the resourceful Duo La approached and offered advice.

"Your Majesty, the soldiers and horses of the Kingdom of Jin have not yet gathered together. We, the Yuan Dynasty, still have tens of thousands of elites in Liaoyang City."

"Since Wanyan Oru underestimated the enemy and rushed forward after the great victory, this may be my Dayuan's last chance."

"If we can kill Jin Kingdom general Wanyan Oru here, it will definitely boost the morale of our Yuan army and make the people feel at ease."

"It can also make the invading Jin Kingdom troops leaderless and have no choice but to return to Shenzhou..."

"If we wait any longer, the Jin Kingdom's soldiers and horses will trap Liaoyang Mansion. By then, I will be unable to fly..."

After hearing Duo La's words, Gao Yongchang looked at the Jin cavalry outside the city and became excited.

What's more, now his relatives and family members have been safely sent to Chenzhou, which is guarded by the Song Army.

The Song general had previously written a letter telling him that if you, Gao Yongchang, cannot support you in Tokyo and nothing can be done, you should retreat to Chenzhou.

Chenzhou is close to the sea and has a dock. Even if it cannot hold on, it can still be boarded and retreated to the Song Dynasty.

What's more, the Song Dynasty has always been benevolent and righteous. The Yuan Kingdom established in Liaodong by relying on the Caotai team can be regarded as a vassal state of the Song Dynasty. As the leader of the Yuan Kingdom, I must also receive preferential treatment.

Having made up his mind, Gao Yongchang issued the order without hesitation and ordered the treasury to be opened and gold and silver wealth to be used to motivate the soldiers.

As long as the Jin Kingdom general Wanyan Oru is killed, he will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver, hundreds of fields, and ten beauties.

Under the temptation of the heavy money, the soldiers of the Yuan Kingdom who had been knocked out of courage before finally became stunned again, came out in full force, and launched a final counterattack against the Jin Kingdom's soldiers and horses, which now had less than [-] cavalry.

At this moment, Fang Zhi, Han Shizhong, Yao Pingzhong and others had just left Chenzhou not long ago.

#####
He Zhi led this group of Song Dynasty lancers, which only had more than a thousand cavalry in total, but were equipped with two horses, all the way north.

After walking for less than two days, we saw the defeated soldiers of the Yuan Kingdom fleeing southward.

After inquiring, I found out that after Gao Yongchang's disastrous defeat in Nawoli Living Water, he retreated to Liaoyang Prefecture in Tokyo.

Seeing that the invading enemy was weak, they wanted to take a gamble, but they were once again defeated by the cavalry sword of the Jin Kingdom led by Wanyan Oru.

The army dispersed, and Wanyan Oru took advantage of the situation to capture Liaoyang Mansion.

"...How long has it been before the Great Yuan Kingdom is gone?"

Yao Pingzhong couldn't help but sigh like this while listening to the exchange between Na He Zhi and the prisoner of war.

Han Shizhong nodded and couldn't help but shouted at the fleeing general.

"You man, have you seen where the leader of your Great Yuan Kingdom is going?"

#####
The sounds of urging were intertwined with the sound of the horse's hooves.

Gao Yongchang, who was originally wearing eye-catching and dazzling armor, now didn't know where his helmet was missing.

The clothes and armor on his body also looked a little scattered due to the long period of galloping.

The old base of three thousand Bohai warriors who followed him closely, now only less than half are left.

And just a few miles away from the rear, Wanyan Oru's general Wu Cun, leading five thousand cavalry, was holding on to the defeated army.

After running around for a long time, Gao Yongchang and his remnants were defeated and became more and more desperate.

However, after passing through an abandoned village and driving for several miles, they saw a large flag flying on a high ground in the distance directly ahead.

And below the high ground, there were more than a thousand cavalry wearing bright red jackets, which made Gao Yongchang couldn't help but be overjoyed.

"Soldiers and horses from the Song Dynasty, brothers, follow me. It's the soldiers and horses from the Song Dynasty sent to rescue me..."

Along with Gao Yongchang's shouts, the eyes of the defeated soldiers who were already extremely low in morale finally began to sparkle with the desire to survive.

He waved the whip in his hand and whipped his mount, hoping to be protected by the soldiers and horses of the Song Dynasty.

And soon, Gao Yongchang saw his deputy prime minister He Zhizheng riding his horse to greet him with a face full of joy.

#####
Wu Cun took the lead. Surrounded by a group of pro-army troops, he galloped out of the abandoned village and immediately saw a strange army several miles away, forming a horizontal formation and blocking the way forward.

It was only after being reminded by a general who knew Chinese characters around him that Wu Zui realized that what they were facing now was actually the soldiers and horses of the Song Dynasty.

"Meng'an, should we send someone to inform those Song people first? After all, His Majesty has said that I, Dajin, should be on good terms with the Song State and not cause any trouble or conflict with the Song people."

The deputy general on the side stepped forward and whispered to the Song Army cavalry who had reined in the horse's head and looked at the Song Army cavalry who was only three miles away from them with a gloomy look.

"Yebuda, who can guarantee that those people on the other side are really soldiers and horses of the Song Dynasty?"

"Yes. Besides, the land of Liaodong deserves the white mountains and black waters of us straight women."

"Meng'an, give me the order. Kill them first, capture them and then ask if they are from Song Dynasty."

"If not, just kill them all together, and we can still make more contributions."

Listening to the noise of the generals around him, Wu Cun no longer hesitated, picked up his weapon, and struck forward with force several times.

"go ahead!"

Accompanied by Wu Zai's rough roar, the Jin Kingdom's cavalry who had already begun to form formation on his left and right showed excited smiles on their faces.

Start to loosen the reins and let the horse under you move forward slowly...

At this moment, more and more Jin cavalry are gathering here after passing through the abandoned village.

At this moment, with the help of the Song cavalry blocking the rear, Gao Yongchang and all the Yuan monarchs and ministers all rolled off their saddles and dismounted, seizing the time to rest.

But when they discovered that after seeing the Song Dynasty's cavalry, the Jin soldiers and horses only hesitated for a moment about Zhu Xiang's achievements, and then seemed to start taking action.

Seeing the opponent's posture of wanting to press forward with the entire army, the defeated generals of the Dayuan Kingdom who were sitting on the high slope in shock suddenly became commotion.

Even Gao Yongchang looked shocked and grabbed He Zhi, who stayed here to accompany him.

"He Aiqing, they only have 1000 troops. Even if they are just waiting for work, the number of gold thieves is several times that of them..."

"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. Although this elite group is only a few thousand in number, each of them possesses a long-range weapon that can kill the enemy at a distance of three hundred steps.

So far, the number of elites like the Great Song Dynasty is only a thousand and a half...

What's more, we are far away from the battlefield now, so we can just rest and watch in peace for the time being. If nothing can be done, we will flee directly and go straight to Chenzhou..."

Under Na He Zhi's persuasion, these remaining defeated generals calmed down and looked forward.
