I, Han Gaozu, actually traveled through Song Gaozong?

Chapter 327 Surrender without a fight
Kong Yanzhou left, but he didn't say hello to any of the nearly 6000 people left.

The reason is simple. This is a losing battle. If you escape, you are smart.

But we can't just go back like this. If the Fourth Prince asks about it then, being unable to fight and not being beaten are completely different things.

These people are proof that they can't beat them. Although they are ready to go, and although they are not bandits like Kong Yanzhou, they are still just signing troops. They can just show off on weekdays, but they really want to fight. if??????

When Liu Bang had rested enough in the City God's Temple and Han Chang came in person to convey the message that Tongxu had been taken down, only an hour had passed.

One hour, 6000 people...

Liu Bang patted the shoulder of the former king of the country. He really looked down upon him. Anyone who could reach the first rank among the Jurchens must be more capable than the first-rank Jurchens.

However, this battle ended too quickly. Not to mention 6000 people. The old city of Tongxu was only renovated when Zhao Kuangyin dredged the Cai River. Even 600 people were determined to defend it. , I'm afraid it won't be taken down that easily.

"He is indeed a tiger general. Follow me for a good time. No matter how rich or glorious you are, you are indispensable."

Knowing that Zhao Guan's family always speaks well except when gambling, Han Chang should have been happy, but in the end his face turned red:
"Many, thank you very much, Your Majesty, but it is a disgrace to me that I will not be rewarded for my merits."

"Don't be humble, kid!"

Liu Bang smiled and said: "It seems that even if there are [-] pigs in Tongxu, it is amazing that you can catch them all in one hour, not to mention that they are all living men... Even if they are not as good as the Jurchens, no matter how bad they are, how can they be worse? go."

The more the emperor said this, the more panicked Han Chang became. He had not been an official in the Song Dynasty for a long time. If he had been replaced by Captain Zhang, he would have already begun to express his gratitude by now.

He hesitated for a while and finally told the whole story.

It turned out that when he led the troops to the outskirts of Natongxu, he saw that the soldiers in the city were all ready to go, and they all looked like they were facing a powerful enemy. He knew that preparations had been made here. After all, they came in such a hurry, and there was no one. It's normal to cover up something and let others know about it.

If you know it, you will know it. This place is the first line outside Kaifeng. Naturally, the Song Army has explored everything. They know that there are only 6000 people inside. They also know that Wanyan Wushu and others are not in Kaifeng at this time, and Liu Qi is also there. Zhang Jun was involved on both sides. Even if reinforcements came from Kaifeng, they would not be large in number and not fast. Han Chang took a brief look at the terrain and immediately asked people to start logging and prepare to attack the city.

Before that, as usual, he asked someone to shout a message outside the city and send a letter. He originally expected that this place was an important town outside Kaifeng, and Wanyan Wushu was not a mediocre person. There must be some very stubborn people here. In addition, he knew that the guard was Kong Yanzhou... Han Chang didn't know much about this person. He just knew that he was a murderer and had a bad temper. He also killed the Song people more than the Jin people, and he rebelled from the Song Dynasty. , there is no reason to surrender either emotionally or rationally.

But they just surrendered.

From calling someone to deliver the letter to the city gate opening, it only took a stick of incense. When Han Chang saw the open city gate, he still felt a little unreal.

As if this is a trap.

It took him an hour to collect the surrendered soldiers, and he did it together with the interrogation and reconnaissance work. To be honest, it took him so long, and he didn't get a few words from the emperor to greet his mother who had died long ago. The Buddha had already blessed her, and now the emperor is still praising her. How can I prevent him from feeling panic if he loses himself?

"Has this Jin Bing fallen to this level?"

Liu Bang put his chin in his hands and leaned on the table on the shrine, looking like he was thinking.

Logically speaking, after losing consecutive battles and not being Jin people, the combat effectiveness of these Jin-Han troops has never been high, but it is neither high nor high. In the cities from the Huaihe River to here, the Jin-Han troops were defeated without fighting like this. It is indeed the first time I have encountered it.

"Then guard Kong Yanzhou, don't you say he is a wicked person?"

Perhaps because of preconceived ideas, when Han Chang said that this person was a villain, the first thing that came to Liu Bang's mind was Wang De's face.Being a wicked person is not that simple. It doesn???t mean that you just set your heart. You also have to have a wicked way and a wicked way of speaking. Although I have never thought highly of him, I will not trample him too much. Low.

After all, he has been fighting for more than ten years, so he will not be incompetent at all.

Han Chang paused and said, "I haven't found any trace of that person. I think I threw away the promise first and ran for my life."

Liu Bang patted his sleeves and wiped away the dust on his body:

"Let's go and have a look."

"If this golden soldier is really so weak, I'm afraid we have to be a little more aggressive."

Bringing a group of people along, they found that Han Chang had already started to build fortifications along the way, and many people were digging holes and setting up traps along the way... Admittedly, this was Han Chang's thoughtful thought, but this was also It's not a big deal. No matter how bad Kong Yanzhou is, he has been in Taikang for only half a month. It's impossible for him to be unprepared at all, right?

In fact, according to what Han Chang said, there really is no such thing.

Not only is there none, the facilities here are simple and crude, not even compared to places like Su Bo, even Shouchun.

You know, Shouchun is close to the Huaihe River, so it can be protected from military disasters, but at least it has everything that people should have, and this Tongxu... town was indeed a county before, and it was a county town that Zhao Kuangyin personally asked people to build. It is close to the hinterland of the Central Plains. Not even an intact house could be seen, and there were ruins everywhere. Not to mention, the ground originally paved with bluestones was covered with mud, mixed with horse excrement, and weeds up to the knees were growing randomly. The entire Tongxu was covered with mud. It looks like a place that has been abandoned for thousands of years.

Xin Ciying was a Jinshi during the Zhenghe period. He was just 20 years old when he passed the Jinshi examination, and there were still 15 years before Kaifeng was destroyed during the Jingkang Rebellion.

He has been here before and seen this pass.

At that time, he was very high-spirited and traveled hundreds of miles around Kaifeng Mansion. Now things have changed, and Taikang is fine. After all, he was affected by the war and he had never been to that place before, so the impact on him was not that big. Now that he has arrived at Tongxu in person, the old man has fallen into deep memories.

"I am the land of Longxing in the Central Plains, a place where humanity flourishes, and a treasure that is the richest in the world. How, how did it become like this!"

Liu Bang was also used to the prosperity of the Song Dynasty, but once he passed Taikang and reached Tongxu, the further north he went, the more desolate the Song Dynasty became.

He suddenly figured out why the wealthy people in Mingzhou were reluctant to carry out the Northern Expedition.

I suddenly understood why these 6000 people surrendered without a fight.

As an important peripheral town in Kaifeng, this is what it looks like.

Then the experience of these soldiers may not be too good.

Could it be more than just this place?

Could it be more than just these 6000 people?
There are not many soldiers in the Kingdom of Jin, but the number of Jinhan troops is indeed large. If this is really the case...

He felt himself getting a little excited.
