The first emperor of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 364 Sleeping Beast

Yue Fei led five thousand soldiers and pursued Wanyan Zonghan non-stop.

Wanyan Zonghan led the remaining [-] Jin troops all the way to the east and north.

"How far is the Song Army from our army?" Wanyan Zonghan asked his personal guard standing next to him.

"Reporting to the general, the Song army is no more than twenty miles away from our army, and they are very close to us." The guard replied.

The distance of twenty miles is really too short. It is like a sharp arrow hanging high above the head, which makes Wanyan Zonghan feel like a stick in his throat.

"It's just that I didn't expect that General Wanyanhuo didn't have soldiers and horses that could withstand the Song army." Zhao Tang said softly.

"No, Mr. Zhao, it's not that General Wanyanhuo couldn't resist the Song army's troops, but that the Song army has now divided up, and Yue Fei left half of his men to encircle and suppress General Wanyanhuo. Now he personally leads five Thousands of elites are coming to chase our army!" The guard replied.

"What? Do you mean that more than 2 of us were chased by [-] soldiers from the Song Army?" Zhao Tang asked suspiciously.

The personal guard nodded, although he didn't want to admit it, it was an indisputable fact.

"General..." Zhao Tang looked at Wanyan Zonghan in front of him, and said hesitantly.

Wanyan Zonghan smiled bitterly, and said to Zhao Tang: "I understand what you want to say, but to be honest, there are too many variables in going south this time, and I dare not take this risk."

Zhao Tang naturally understood Wanyan Zonghan's concerns, Yue Fei dared to bring [-] soldiers and horses to chase the [-] soldiers and horses on his side. If there is no support, it is impossible.

Although Yue Fei is not very old, Wanyan Zonghan has to admit that Yue Fei is an extremely difficult opponent, not to mention that he uses soldiers like a god, but his military accomplishments are definitely extremely talented. He can use five thousand soldiers to fight against him. Chasing his more than [-] people must be to bite his more than [-] people firmly, and then buy time for the army behind, and then he can eat all of his people.

There are more than [-] people on my side, while the other party only has more than [-] people. It stands to reason that the ratio of such people has reached a ratio of five to one. It is really trivial to swallow Yue Fei's soldiers and horses, but Wanyan Zonghan is Don't dare to take this risk at all.

The battle with Yue Fei in the past has made Wanyan Zonghan deeply realize the horror of this little general. Although the opponent only has 5000 people, the combat power he displayed will definitely not be worse than the 1 people on his side. At that time, as long as the 2000 soldiers and horses behind swallowed the [-] death squads left by him and then caught up, he would really be bitten.

"The new king of the Song Dynasty knows how to use people well!" Wanyan Zonghan couldn't help but sigh in his heart at this time, and the worry in his heart was even worse.

Once upon a time, the Song Dynasty of Jin Guojue was a superior country. The Song Dynasty was highly civilized and has always been a model worthy of the Jin Kingdom. Therefore, when the Jin Kingdom and the Song Dynasty formed a maritime alliance and discussed jointly resisting the Liao Dynasty, the Jin Kingdom had always implemented the Song Dynasty. They were all gifts from the Shang Kingdom, including during the subsequent battles, the Kingdom of Jin was also very friendly to the Song Dynasty.

But after getting in touch with more, many generals of the Jin Kingdom discovered that things were not the same thing at all. Maybe the civilization of the Song Dynasty was very developed, but the officials of the Song Dynasty were all like fools, arrogant and conceited. It is too simple to destroy such a country that only knows how to fight in the nest, but is actually strong in the outside world.

So Wanyan Wu Qimai ordered everyone to go south to attack the Song Dynasty, and they were very successful. They directly captured the Youyun Sixteen Prefectures that belonged to the Song Dynasty, and then went south all the way to Bianjing, the capital of the Song Dynasty.

When he thought things were going to end like this, the emperor of the Song Dynasty was really scared, and kept writing letters to Wanyan Wu Qimai of the Kingdom of Jin, hoping for forgiveness.

But at that time, Jin Taizong Wanyan Wu Qimai was such a wise person, and naturally he would not make such a mistake. His goal was only one, and that was to destroy the Song Dynasty.

Everything seemed to be going very well until the last emperor of the Song Dynasty, the current Supreme Emperor Zhao Ji, was so frightened that he was about to flee south and gave up the throne to his eldest son, Prince Zhao Huan.

Regarding this point, Jin Jun didn't take it seriously at all. After all, in their view, such a thing would not have a big impact on them. No matter who will be the emperor of the Song Dynasty, it doesn't matter to Jin Guo Yes, this civilized country with a long history is already full of holes at this time, and it has been decayed from the inside out.

But they have forgotten what the Emperor Taizu of the Jin Kingdom Wanyan Aguda said before, the Song Dynasty is a sleeping beast, once he wakes up, it will be a major disaster for us.

It turns out that Wanyan Zonghan just listened to this sentence as a joke, but now that he thinks about it, Emperor Taizu Wanyan Aguda is the most farsighted.

Thinking of this, Wanyan Zonghan couldn't help laughing wryly, feeling self-deprecating.

"General, what are you thinking?" Zhao Tang couldn't help asking, seeing the uncertain expression on Wanyan Zonghan's face.

Wanyan Zonghan didn't hide anything about this idea at this time, so he told Zhao Tang what he thought of just now.

After Zhao Tang heard this, he gave a wry smile and said, "Emperor Taizu is really a great man, he must have expected this situation a long time ago."

Wanyan Zonghan nodded, and said: "Yes, we only want to understand this now, but it's a bit late, the court is still fighting for power, and several people have realized that the sleeping beast of the Song Dynasty has woken up gone?"

Zhao Tang took a deep breath and said to Wanyan Zonghan: "Don't blame yourself, General. You are not to blame for this matter, and it is not up to you to decide. Think about it, after you go back, the format in the court should also change. New The first thing the king should do when he succeeds to the throne is to report this matter to the new king."

Wanyan Zonghan nodded, and said, "You're right." After a pause, he smiled wryly again, and said to Zhao Tang, "Forget it, it's still unknown whether we can go back. Thinking about these things now, it's really difficult. Some are too early."

Knowing Wanyan Zonghan's worries, Zhao Tang encouraged him and said, "General, you must be confident, and you must firmly believe that we will definitely be able to return to Shangjing."

Wanyan Zonghan knew that Zhao Tang was comforting himself, but at a time when his confidence was seriously lacking, Wanyan Zonghan needed exactly this kind of comfort.
