Became a feudal lord in the late Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 198 The city is at war

The Jin people really never failed anyone on the battlefield, even in the civil war.

The best way to deal with powerful foreigners is to use barbarians to control barbarians, and use spears to attack barbarians. Anyway, the king of Han now has enough money and food to continue to make small moves in the Jin family. Even the Jin people in history, after the earliest outbreak period, The trend of internal fighting has also emerged in China very early.

However, Yanyun, which has a complex composition, has become more and more united after Liu Ling's several integrations. Although there are internal fights, they are rare. In the final analysis, it is necessary to draw the cake and let everyone eat the cake. A rather difficult thing.

The simplest way is to establish a just power and use the influence brought by power to divert domestic conflicts and lead everyone to deal with the outside world in a unified manner. Then, the restraint on oneself cannot be loosened, otherwise, the superstructure will collapse in an instant.

Liu Ling started his career by relying on military merit. He can be vague about other aspects, but military merit is still extremely rigid. If he wants to be in a position, wants fame and wealth, and wants to be a master, he can exchange military merit for it!

Even if you die in battle, I will support your family for you!

In terms of military exploits, the flags raised by the Song people in the surrendering army were Han Shizhong, and then Quduan Yang Keshi and others; so those sitting on the hilltop in the Liao surrendering army were the generals of the Ever-Victorious Army who surrendered to Liu Ling in the first place; the Xia people , Liang Zhe, on the other hand, is actually a bit weak in some aspects and cannot fully hold up.

Of course, this was also because Liang Zhe himself was unwilling to come out to carry the flag.

What's more, after Liang Zhe guarded the seven states of Hebei, Liu Ling still needed a Xia general to continue to guard Yanyun and appease the hearts of the Xia people in Yanyun.

At the same time, this general must also be able to fight.

"The last general, Li Liangfu, pays homage to the king!"

"The last general."

These three thousand cavalry were all the cavalry Li Liangfu had on hand. Liu Ling dispatched them to the place with the highest battle damage rate in one sentence, but Li Liangfu knew clearly that the King of Han would definitely compensate him in the future, so Li Liangfu felt heartbroken now, and he still felt sad in his heart. Hope this battle can be won.

There was a simple meal on the dining table. After taking a look, Liu Ling put down the paperwork and pen in his hand and started eating. He ate very quickly, but he only ate half the bowl before putting it down, and continued to pick up the paperwork to review.

Li Liangfu was stunned for a moment, not knowing what the King of Han meant.

Neighbors, officials, benefactors, and enemies were all mixed in with the corpses, and no one could see clearly. "

He hurriedly knelt on the ground, and then the king of Han sat down opposite him and pulled him up.

At first, Li Liangfu won a few small victories because the Jin people were relatively weak in the west. Then the Jin general named Wanyan Loushi had a big quarrel with his colleagues, and in the end he only led a thousand men to attack the enemy. Li Liangfu's 30,000 Xia army was defeated head-on.

Li Liangfu saw this scene when he came in. After waiting quietly for a moment, he watched Liu Ling put down the paperwork before he spoke.

"Will General Li be haunted at night?"

Isn't it the greatest shame of being a general?

Liu Ling nodded and stretched out his hand to indicate. The two men's eyes intertwined for a moment. Li Liangfu lowered his head and knelt down respectfully.

"Three thousand cavalry have detoured to the Jinlian River and will do their best to cut off the Jin people's food route in one day. According to your order, the cavalry will fight to the death to buy opportunities for the army!"

"The last general. The last general has lost his mind. The last general deserves to die!"

Li Liangfu was stunned unconsciously. When he came to his senses again, the King of Han was already standing in front of him.

About four years ago, the Jin people went south to attack the Liao Dynasty. At that time, Li Liangfu was still the commander-in-chief of the Xia army and was ordered to lead an army of 30,000 to attack the Jin people from the west.

"General Lee is here."

The battle situation at that time was actually very complicated, and the Xia troops under his command were not elite field warriors, but Li Liangfu also knew clearly that they had indeed led a thousand men into his central army at a thirty-fold strength disadvantage.

"I still remember that four years ago, the Jin people went south. At that time, I was just a commoner in Yanjing City, struggling to survive with my wife. At that time, the Song people attacked the city and fought with the Liao army in the city. Bodies were piled everywhere on the floor tiles.

Liu Ling said slowly, and then sighed.

That wife is probably the current Princess of Han?

Li Liangfu thought in his heart.

"Then, my first wife, who is now Princess Han, often had nightmares at night. My king later said to her, with me here, Yanyun will no longer be bullied by the Jin people, and you don't have to be afraid of others. After all, you and I have been married since we were young, so it makes no sense for me to become successful and leave you behind."

Liu Ling stared at Li Liangfu who lowered his head and said softly: "General Li, everyone is afraid of things. I can understand you."

"But are you really afraid?"

The King of Han raised his hand, touched Li Liangfu's chest, and told him.

"This is hatred, not fear. General Li, you led the Xia army four years ago, but now, you are my king's general, and you are the elite of my Han army!"

Li Liangfu had already guessed what the King of Han was going to say next, but he still couldn't help but tremble in his heart and his breathing gradually became heavier.

“You don’t have to be afraid now, because I am behind you.

You can now take revenge to your heart's content. You have a chance to win. I will hand over myself and my army to you. You can even send all my royal weapons to the front army to fight!

You can destroy all my troops, but I will continue to hand over my troops to you later, because I know you can do it. "

Liu Ling stood up and slowly raised his voice to Li Liangfu.

"But I only need one word, win!"

Li Liangfu raised his knees and moved back, then knelt down in front of Liu Ling and knocked his head in front of him.

"General. Follow your orders!"

It's obviously June, but the weather in the north always likes to cause mischief, and it's not uncommon for a heavy snowfall to occur occasionally.

But for the Han army, they encircled the enemy very quickly, but they had to stop the attack because of the heavy snow. The consumption and losses caused by this were actually far more than that of the Jin army of Wanyan Gao tribe.

Zhao Heshou was sitting on a chair. There was a fire in the room and it was as warm as spring. Zhao Heshou put down the letter and said softly:

"Twenty thousand gold men, I don't know how many of our fellow soldiers they will kill when they counterattack."

In the room, the other two lieutenants were also sitting on chairs. One of them said, "What do you mean, your Majesty?"

Zhao Heshou clenched his hands into fists and knocked lightly on the table.

"Tonight, Ning Yuan's army will come out of the city to attack Jin Gou."

"But the wind and snow are too heavy. If anything happens, you can tell the king that we will..."

Zhao Heshou replied calmly: "I am the general who wrote three letters to the king in succession. I told the king that the Ningyuan Army is also capable of fighting. I begged him to attack tonight and the Ningyuan Army can be the vanguard."

"You."

Zhao Heshou stood up and whispered to the two of them: "My general's family and parents all died at the hands of the golden dog."

"But. The city is blocked by heavy snow. How can your army, our army, and the king's troops know the direction?"

Even after leaving the government office and arriving at the city gate, the generals were still persuading him non-stop.

Then under their gaze, a cavalry team of about 300 people appeared at the city gate. With the help of his own soldiers, Zhao Heshou put on his armor and got on his horse. The cavalry team also merged into his central army and guarded the city. around him.

Under his order, the big city gate slowly opened, and the army that had been preparing for a long time left the city. The wind and snow were so heavy that even the Jin people's sentries would not be stupid enough to come to Guancheng to spy at this time.

The army advanced in silence. When he estimated that he had entered the range of the Jin sentry, Zhao Heshou looked at the deputy general next to him and said softly: "Do you know why the King of Han sent this general here?"
