At this time, the strength of the two armies of the North Route Army was stronger than that of the South Route Army.Yue Fei is the commander-in-chief of the Third Army. Zhang Xian, Zhang Jun, and others are fierce generals under the Third Army. Yang Xiong, Yang Zhi, and others are brave generals of the Northern Army. Their total strength exceeds 10. Therefore, so many soldiers and horses are arranged on the North Road, mainly because the strength of Beijing on the North Road is stronger than that on the Beijing Road.

Ever since the Huining mansion was lost, Wanyan Aguda has been sitting in Zhongjing. When he was there, Zhongjing was naturally stronger than Shangjing, but before he left, he brought all the soldiers and horses of Zhongjing to the east. Now Zhongjing is extremely empty, with almost no How many garrisons.On the contrary, there are still 3 garrisons in Shangjing. Although these [-] people are newly attached troops, they can still resist for a period of time by relying on the city walls of Shangjing City. Therefore, Huarong arranged more elite troops to form the northern army. road army.

Of course, Liangshan didn't really pay attention to Shangjing City.The main force of Jurchen has been completely wiped out, and the remaining few cities cannot block Liangshan's attack.

The more than [-] troops on the North Road continued on the road after only a day's rest, but all the soldiers didn't feel much tired. This battle was fought happily, and they have already won a complete victory. They are all very excited in spirit. Trying my best to hurry, I want to reach Shangjing in the fastest time and occupy Shangjing City.

All the way to the west, the road was very desolate, and it took several days to see the city.They are now located in the northeast and the border area of ​​Inner and Mongolia. Originally, this place was a wasteland or grassland like Liaodong. However, the Liao Kingdom has been established for 200 years, and this place has gradually become prosperous. There are now more than ten counties here!

There are not many soldiers stationed in each city, there are as many as 2000 people, and as few as a few hundred people. Wherever Liangshan's army goes, these cities will all surrender.

Yue Fei entered these cities with his army, and he found that the conditions of these cities were not very good.Similar to the Zongzhou and Lizhou they conquered before, there is also a shortage of food in these cities, and people are starving to death everywhere in the city, and cannibalism is everywhere.

Yue Fei frowned secretly, and asked his soldiers to take out the army rations to supply the people in these cities.

The soldiers were unusually straightforward. First, Liangshan’s discipline was strict, and orders from their superiors could not be resisted. Second, Liangshan’s soldiers were all born at the bottom. They had been educated by the military and civilian families for many years. Take out the rations.

"Brother, we defeated the Jurchens. This time, we got countless cities and people, but it also brought us huge troubles! Millions of people in the north have nothing to eat or drink. All this needs Let's supply from Liangshan." Zhang Xian and Yue Fei came out of a small town, Zhang Xian said.

"Yeah, this is a huge trouble! But it's the end of May now, and the grain will be available in two months. It should be able to supply here by then! Moreover, the people here can plant some autumn grain. I believe that by next year , everything will be fine." Yue Fei said.

"It is not an easy task to transport food here from all over the country and distribute it to these people, so as to ensure that there will be no injustice and cause dissatisfaction." Zhang Xian stuck out his tongue and said.

He is a fierce general under Yue Fei, good at fighting, and has no experience in civil affairs. In his opinion, this is an extremely huge project, and it is more difficult than defeating the Jurchens.Seeing the expression on Zhang Xian's face, Yue Fei laughed heartily. In fact, Yue Fei is not good at civil affairs. He knew that Wu Dong, Li Gang and others would naturally handle these matters, but he didn't need them to trouble him.

"Let's go, let's go to Shangjing City quickly! Occupy Shangjingcheng first, so as not to cause accidents!" Yue Fei said.

There were more than 27 troops, and the cavalry went first. On the [-]th of the fifth lunar month, Yue Fei, Zhang Xian, and Zhang Jun first came to the vicinity of Shangjing.

"Zhang Xian, take the soldiers to investigate ahead!" After galloping for many days, the soldiers were a little tired. Yue Fei asked the soldiers to station here now, let the horses rest here, and then ordered Zhang Xian to investigate the reality of Shangjing. .

Zhang Xian left at noon, and he didn't come back until the afternoon. After he dismounted, there was a hint of anxiety on his face.

"What happened?" Yue Fei was washing his face with water by the river, when he saw Zhang Xian's anxious expression, he asked immediately.

"Brother, I went to see, Shangjing City has been occupied by the Xixia people!" Zhang Xian said.

"What? Xixia people?" Yue Fei froze there.

"Yes, they are Xixia people! We have fought against Xixia people before, and I know their dress and attire. There are tens of thousands of Xixia people on the city wall!" Zhang Xian said.

"Come on, let's take a look!" Yue Fei said immediately.

At that moment, Yue Fei, Zhang Xian, and Zhang Jun led [-] cavalry and headed towards the capital together!Although Yue Fei felt a little strange in his heart, he didn't worry too much!After fighting the Xixia people last time, he has seen the strength of the Xixia people, they are really vulnerable!Although he didn't know why the Xixia people appeared in Shangjing, it didn't matter, he would expel the Xixia people out soon.

When the sun was setting, Yue Fei's army came here. Yue Fei led ten thousand cavalry in the south, Zhang Xian in the southwest, and Zhang Jun in the southeast.Liangshan soldiers and horses galloped freely under the upper capital, observing the situation above from time to time.

Yue Fei took a closer look and found that these people were indeed dressed as Xixia, and their number should be around [-].In addition to the Xixia people, there are also some people wearing the clothes of the newly attached army. They should be the original garrison in Shangjing City. Now these people are mixed with the Xixia people.

"Shangjing! The capital of the Liao Kingdom, this is my territory in Liangshan. The Xixia people dare to come here to take advantage of it. This is courting death!" Yue Fei said secretly while riding on the horse.

Shangjing City was the former capital of the Liao Kingdom, and its status was higher than that of Zhongjing, Yanjing and other places.In the past, it was the economic, political and cultural center of the Liao Kingdom. It took the people of the Liao Kingdom 200 years to build it into a pearl in the north.The Jurchens defeated the Khitans and accepted Shangjing.Now that Liangshan has defeated the Jurchens, Shangjing should naturally belong to Liangshan, and everyone in Liangshan has already regarded Shangjing as their own property.Seeing that the Xixia people appeared here, including Yue Fei, all the officers and soldiers had angry expressions on their faces.

Yue Fei walked around the outside of Shangjing City, it took nearly an hour, the sun had already set, and the torches were already lit on the city wall, at this moment, a group of generals appeared on the south tower!The leader looked to be in his 40s and was wearing heavy armor. He was looking intently at the Liangshan army below.
