The first emperor of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 180 History is always written by the victors

History is always written by the victors.

"The Jin army went south this time, claiming to have an army of 50, but I estimate that the number of the Jin army is only 30, which should be about the same as the last time." Li Gang stood up and said.

"The Jin army is eyeing them like a tiger, and they will never die. This time they came well. Now that they have come this time, let them be completely kept!" Zhao Huan's eyes were shining brightly. Instead, he felt a sense of excitement.

After Chanzhou is Shicheng, and after Shicheng is Bianjing City, the Jin army pointed directly at Bianjing this time, and it seems that they want revenge.

"Your Majesty, there are less than [-] people in the Wude Battalion in the Shicheng defenders. I am afraid it will be difficult to withstand the attack of the Jin army." Li Gang stood up and said.

Yue Feixi is in Luoyang, and Zongze has gone to Zhending now, and the two places and Bianjing City are forming horns with each other, but this time is different from the last time, the Jin army did not split up to attack Zhending and Luoyang this time, on the contrary Came directly towards Bianjing.

"The Jin army's soldiers are pointing directly at Bianjing, ignoring Luoyang and Zhending. I'm afraid there are still left behind. Our army has to defend." Wang Shuo, the Privy Council envoy, stood up and said.

This is also the most strange thing about Zhao Huan. Originally, the purpose of Zhao Huan's division of troops was to divide the Jin army, so as to weaken the strength of the Jin army, but now the Jin army has all 30 elite troops. Pressed outside the city of Bianjing, there is a great deal of effort to annex Bianjing.

Could it be that the Jin Army is really crazy this time? Zhao Huan doesn’t think so. Among the generals who led the army this time, Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Zongbi are all famous generals in the Jin Army. It is absolutely impossible for them to leave no way out like this.

"How is the situation in Xixia?" Zhao Huan asked.

"The news came from Du Qian, the envoy who went to Xixia, that there was no change in Xixia. It is estimated that this time the Jin army will go south, and there will be no Xixia army involved." Li Guang, the Dahonglu Temple of Honglu Temple, stood up and said.

Zhao Huan nodded and said, "Shicheng is the last line of defense in the north of Bianjing. If you want to ensure the safety of Bianjing, you must ensure that Shicheng is not broken. An urgent decree was sent to Shicheng at 1 li, telling them to stick to it for one day. Qi Baifeng led a naval force of 5 people, and Liu Moyu led a tiger and ben army of [-] people, set off immediately to help Shicheng."

Although Bianjing City had already been besieged once, Zhao Huan didn't want to be surrounded by soldiers at this time. The capital city was besieged by people, which was a shameful and humiliating thing.

The marching speed of the Jin army is really too fast. Of course, the main reason is that the Song army did not have any preparations for the arrival of the Jin army. This peaceful life has passed for a long time, and people have long lost the nature of fighting. Now the Song Dynasty does not look at the weak army , but the common people are very rich. When they become rich, they will naturally cherish their lives. At this time, who wants to go to the front to kill the enemy.

Shicheng is a small city by the Yellow River. If the Jin army wants to capture Shicheng, they must cross the Yellow River. It is already autumn, and the Yellow River has entered a dry season. There is not much water in the river. Facing the menacing Jin Army, Lu Hufeng, the defender of the Wude Camp in Shicheng, has a serious expression on his face. There are only 30 defenders on his side, but there are [-] Golden Army cavalry on the other side of the Yellow River. There is no possibility of victory.

"General, let's surrender. I heard from people who fled from Chanzhou that the Jin army did nothing wrong to the soldiers who surrendered. The city guard is still the city guard, and the general is still the general. We only have ten thousand people." , but the opponent has 30 people, we can't hold it." Lieutenant Zeng Lv'er couldn't help but came over to persuade Lu Hufeng at this time and said.

I don’t know what Zeng Lv’er’s real name is, because this person has a long face, and he has a weird temper, so he was called Zeng Lv’er. After a long time, everyone called him Zeng Lv’er Well, no one knows her real name.

Lu Hufeng's face was serious, and he said to his lieutenant general: "Shut up, don't say such words that disturb the morale of the army. If it weren't for the fact that you have followed me for many years, just because of your words, I would kill you!" head."

Zeng Lv'er smiled embarrassingly, but he didn't really take what Lu Hufeng said to heart, but approached him and said, "I just want to tell you, General, that the brothers down there are in chaos now, just I'm afraid that when the Jin army arrives, we won't even be able to do any decent resistance, we will be defeated, and when the time comes to break the city, we might as well surrender directly, so that we can save our lives."

"Bianjing City is behind you and me. If you want to come to Bianjing City, you have already received news. I believe that reinforcements will arrive soon. I only need to hold on for half a day, and then the crisis in Shicheng City will be resolved." Lu Hufeng said to Zeng Lv Er said that he had a thorough analysis of the battle situation.

"I'm afraid that our army will not be able to hold out for half a day. The opponent has as many as 30 troops. It is not easy for our army to hold out for half a day." Zeng Lv'er couldn't help but shook his head and said.

Yes, this half-day may be extremely short, but on the real battlefield, this half-day is too long. Even my 1 people are not enough for the opponent's teeth. It's not even the hour, let alone half a day.

Lu Hufeng naturally understood this truth, but it would take time for the reinforcements to arrive, so he could only stick to it.

"If you can't hold it, you have to hold it." Lu Hufeng said to Zeng Lv'er: "Hurry up and order people to go down and prepare. Even if you are the last person to die in the battle, you have to hold on for half a day."

Seeing that Lu Hufeng was so resolute, Zeng Luer knew that the persuasion to capitulate was futile, so he could only order the soldiers below to prepare for the war. He ordered many soldiers to dig ditches on the banks of the Yellow River and buy willow branches in the ditches. It is hoped that this will be used to resist the advance of the Jin army.

But this is the bank of the Yellow River, not a plain area. The Yellow River carries a lot of sediment. The ditch that Zeng Luer ordered people to dig at night, after a night of sedimentation, was already filled the next day. , so it is equivalent to the Song Army working all night, which is basically in vain. As for the willow branches buried on the bank of the river, they cannot stop the tiger and wolf division of the Jin Army.

Zeng Lv'er's face was a little ugly, and he couldn't help muttering: "It seems that this is God's death, I can't be saved, I can't be saved..."

The angry Lu Hufeng almost killed him for the crime of disturbing the morale of the army.

　On the third day in a row, the fourth watch happened, I got a bad cold, both nostrils were not ventilated, I felt like I had a rhinitis, and I had a terrible headache.
