Chapter 470 0467 [You and I are one family]

Wanyan Zongwang was shocked when he received the information from Datong.

He was really frightened.

The Qi army unexpectedly raided Yunzhou, which made him extremely frightened.

Others didn't know how powerful the Qi army's artillery was, but he had personal experience.

Without preparation, artillery attacks on a city are a piece of cake.

After regaining his senses, Wanyan Zongwang, who was confused and confused, immediately called Liu Yanzong, Wanyan Yanmu and other confidants to inquire about the border situation.

When they learned that the Qi army on Nanjing Road had not made any move, they were relieved.

Seeing this, Wanyan's mother asked in confusion: "What happened?"

Wanyan Zongwang said with a gloomy face: "The Qi army divided into three groups to attack Yunzhou unexpectedly. Yingzhou has fallen into the hands of the Qi army. Shuozhou and Yuzhou are currently unknown, but judging from the battle reports in Yingzhou, it is most likely to be a disaster."

As soon as he finished speaking, a middle-aged scribe exclaimed.

In the sixth year of Tianfu, he was promoted to the title of Prince Shaobao, the military governor of Liao Xing, the Yin of Liao Xing Prefecture, and the commander of the Han army. He was a proper official of the border area.

Wanyan Zongwang was overjoyed and made the other party his confidant, and entrusted Shi Liai to handle all civil affairs in Zhongjing Road.

This man's name was Shi Li'ai, a Han from the north, and a Jinshi in the ninth year of Taikang High School. He was promoted to the deputy left-behind officer of Yanjing because of his intelligence, proficiency, uprightness and outspokenness. He later served as the envoy of the Nanyuan of Xuanhui, the governor of various palaces, and the envoy of the system.

Wanyan Zongwang sneered and said: "Xixia is just an unfamiliar dog, and it is forced by the situation to seek refuge with me, Daijin. Even when I, Daijin, are weak, there is no chance that Xixia will be the first to jump out and bite us back!"

Shi Liai looked solemn and said: "If the official guessed correctly, Qi State must be taking action against Song State at this time."

He knows best who Li Qianshun is.

Liu Yanzong frowned and said, "What about Xixia?"

It can be seen from this that the ability of love is very strong.

Later, Wanyan Zongwang went south to attack the Song Dynasty, and Shi Liai immediately defected to the enemy.

Wanyan Zongwang asked: "Why did Changshou say this?"

Wanyan's mother lost her voice and said: "Is Qi State crazy and starting a war against Jin and Song Dynasties at the same time?"

"No, I'm afraid the matter of uniting with Song Dynasty to conquer Qi has already been leaked!"

Shi Liai smiled bitterly and said: "The fact that Qi State dared to attack Yunzhou by surprise means that it has secretly reached an agreement with Xixia. Although I don't know the specific agreement yet, I can be sure that Xixia will never send troops."

"Xiaguan didn't have any doubts before, until the Emperor of Qi suddenly heard that he was going to Mount Tai to pray for Zen, and he felt something was wrong. At such a critical moment, going to Mount Tai to pray for Zen was extremely weird in itself. Now that I think about it carefully, it is clearly a clear practice. The plank road is a plan to secrete Chen Cang. The Qi State must have intercepted the information about the exchanges between the Jin Dynasty and the Song State, and designed to strike first. The seal of Zen is false, but the dispatch of troops and generals is true! "

In the seventh year of Tianfu, the Jin Kingdom leased Yanjing and its six prefectures of Ji, Jing, Tan, Shun, Zhuo and Yi to Zhao and Song Dynasty, and the new city was also included in the territory of the Song Dynasty.

"How dare Li Qianshun betray his trust!"

Wanyan's mother was immediately furious.

After all, he was responsible for recruiting Xixia to surrender in the first place.

At this time, Wanyan Zongwang had also thought about it, and mused: "Strike first is the strongest. Qi's strategy is right. Through surprise attacks, as long as we capture Yunzhou and Yanyun is in hand, the difficulty of our attack will increase by several degrees." times."

At this time, Shi Liai happened to resign and returned to his hometown, Xincheng, to honor his father. Zhao Ji knew his virtuous reputation and issued many edicts to summon Shi Liai to serve as an official in the court. However, he had long seen through the increasing corruption of Zhao Song and refused to accept it. He issued an edict and warned family members not to be officials of the Song Dynasty.

When Emperor Tianzuo was on the run, Li Qianshun actively sent troops to help the Liao Kingdom fight against the Jin Dynasty. After Emperor Tianzuo was captured, he immediately changed his attitude and declared himself a vassal.

This kind of person has no loyalty at all. Interest is the first priority.

"Li Qianshun deserves death!"

Wanyan Yan's mother punched the table with hatred, and then asked, "What should we do now?"

Qi Guo's combination of punches made him a little confused.

Originally, when the Three Kingdoms attacked Qi, the Qi State was already in a certain death situation. Now, the situation suddenly reversed, and for a while, I didn't know how to deal with it.

Wanyan Zongwang looked at Shi Liai and Liu Yanzong and asked, "Does Changshou and Lu Kai have any countermeasures?"

Liu Yanzong looked ugly and said: "Nanjing Road has not sent troops, which means that it intends to defend instead of attack and delay the victory in Yunzhou. Therefore, even if the commander-in-chief leads a large army to attack, I am afraid he will not be able to gain favor."

Shi Liai added: "It's impossible not to fight. Qi's current offensive is so fast and fierce, but it is a multi-front battle after all. It places a huge burden on logistics and cannot fight for a long time. Du Shuai wants to solve Yunzhou's urgent needs. , we can only attack Nanjing Road."

"Now all the elites of the Qi army are in Yunzhou. If Marshal Zuo can hold off the Qi army, it will only take three to five months. If the supply of logistics and supplies is not urgent, the Qi army will definitely be defeated!"

Wanyan's mother asked, "Why don't you send troops to Yunzhou to help?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Liai and Liu Yanzong fell silent, while Wanyan Zongwang gave him a meaningful look.

Seeing this, Wanyan's mother was shocked and immediately realized that she had said the wrong thing. She quickly bowed and said: "Your Majesty, please forgive me, I...I just made a mistake." "Uncle, what are you doing? You and I are a family. .”

Wanyan Zongwang didn't care and helped him up magnanimously, but emphasized the words "family".

The implication is obvious, you are my uncle and a member of the family, while Wanyan Zonghan is an outsider!
Liu Yanzong took the opportunity to say: "Now that the situation is unclear, if we rashly increase our troops, there is no chance that the garrison in Nanjing Road will take the opportunity to send troops to attack Zhongjing."

In fact, everyone present knows that the possibility of Nanjing Dao taking the initiative to send troops is very small, but no matter what, Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Zonghan have not yet broken up, they are both ministers of the Jin Kingdom, and they still have to say something about the situation.

However, internal fighting is internal fighting, and Wanyan Zongwang also knows that he must not sit still and wait for death at this time, otherwise once Wanyan Zonghan is defeated and Yunzhou falls into the hands of Qi, it will be difficult to go south again.

Wanyan Zongwang ordered: "Uncle, rush to the camp immediately to assemble the army and prepare for war."

"it is good!"

Wanyan's mother nodded and left as if running away.

Sending troops to Nanjing Road is currently the best solution. It doesn't matter whether we fight or not. The purpose is to increase Qi's logistical burden.

As for Yunzhou, no matter whether Wanyan Zonghan could withstand the Qi army's fierce attack, his strength would definitely be greatly damaged, and the advantages to him outweighed the disadvantages.

The next day.

Wanyan Zongwang ordered his army to attack Nanjing Road.

……

……

"Kill!!!"

Under the drizzle, Wu Lin took the lead and rushed into the city gate that was blasted open.

The moment the city gate was breached, the Song troops defending the city collapsed and fled in all directions.

Liu Guangshi, the guard general of Yangzhou, had already abandoned the city and fled.

The Xuzhou army under Yue Fei's command was divided into three groups. Wu Lin led an army of six thousand and entered Yangzhou from Gaoyou.

Wang Yan quietly crossed the Yangtze River with eight thousand troops and attacked Chizhou.

Yue Fei himself led an army of 16,000 and defeated 30,000 Song troops in Caishiji, killing 6,000 enemies and capturing 20,000 prisoners. He also captured the commander Wang Yuan alive among the 10,000 troops.

The Song army was already weak, and the Xuzhou army was so frightened that they peeed.

The three armies were as powerful as breaking bamboo, and attacking the city was like entering an uninhabited country.

In just three days, Chizhou, Yangzhou, and Dangtu fell one after another.

When the battle report reached Jinling, Zhao Ji was so frightened that he almost peed his pants. Dangtu and Yangzhou were going up and down, right next to Jiangning Mansion. It was like making dumplings.

If you don't run now, once the Qi army arrives, you will have no chance at all.

Without even having time to condemn Qi for breaking the alliance and going to war without declaring the war, Zhao Ji fled south from Runzhou to Hangzhou with a group of civil and military officials under the escort of Zhang Jun, Liu Guangshi and other generals.

At the same time, Jinzouyuan began to exert its efforts and used Qingzhou Daily to publicize Zhao Song's betrayal of faith and alliance with Jin to attack Qi. Together with the "Essay on Punishing the Counterfeit Song" written by Zhao Huan himself, the whole country was shocked and in an uproar.

The literati who were originally preparing to criticize Qi Guokou turned their guns and aimed at Cai Jing, Tong Guan and Li Yan.

Zhao Huan's appeal was so powerful that even though courtiers such as Zongze understood that the other party was talking nonsense, the people did not know.

Under the propaganda of Qingzhou Daily day after day, the people are convinced of this.

In addition, the subordinate officials already admired the country and killed officials one after another to open the door and welcome the king's troops into the city.

Compared to the hard battle in Yunzhou, it was much easier here in the south.

On the first day of March, Wu Lin conquered Runzhou.

On the third day of March, Yue Fei conquered Jiangning Mansion.

On the same day, Wang Yan defeated Shezhou (Huangshan).

In just ten days, they conquered 28 counties in six states.

On the other side, Liu Qi's offensive was not as smooth as Yue Fei's.

The main reason is that Xiangyang is a nail. The location is so good, and the rainy weather makes it hard to pull it out for a while.

In desperation, Liu Qi could only change his strategy and adopt encirclement and reinforcements.

He left an army of 20,000 to besiege Xiangyang, while he led 10,000 elite troops to wait and ambush the reinforcements who came to support him.
