Slave to Queen: One Night Bride

Chapter 174 Capture the Fourth Prince

There is only a dark forest, and there are different winds and moons on both sides.According to Jin Wushu's judgment, Hua Rong was injured, so he must not be able to travel very far. The estimated time is about the border between Song and Jin.

However, there is no one on the border of the Kingdom of Jin, has he already returned to the Kingdom of Song?
Wu Qimai reined in his horse first: "Fourth Prince, after passing here is the Song Kingdom, don't dare to act rashly..."

Jin Wu's tone was very irritated: "So what?"

Wu Qimai reminded him: "The Song and Jin truces have been temporarily released, and another batch of prisoners have been released back. If there is another dispute, will it cause unnecessary trouble?"

"I remember that the guard in this area is called Wang Dalong, and he is also a defeated general. Song Guo's soldiers here are all old, weak and remnant soldiers, so there is nothing to fear! However, there have been news recently that Wu Jie, the famous general of Song Guo The army passed by, and I don't know if they are still there..."

This is true, Wu Qimai has been in the army for many years, and every time he fights against the Song State, except for the time between Yue Pengju and Hai Hai, he has hardly encountered any decent resistance from the Song State's army.However, they had only heard of Wu Jie's prestige, but had never fought against him. Knowing that General Song's military exploits were exaggerated, they didn't take Wu Jie seriously.

However, when Wu Qimai saw that Jin Wushu was going to cross the border of the Song Kingdom, he still hesitated, and hurriedly suggested: "There is an army of Yelu Wuma stationed in this area, so you might as well call them to be prepared."

Jin Wushu was noncommittal, and suddenly came up with a plan.The return of some prisoners of war this time, whether it is the Song Dynasty or the Jin Dynasty, many people think that this is the beginning of the Jin people's peace negotiation.If this kind of view and atmosphere spread, it will definitely affect the mood of the Jin army who are already eager to enjoy the plundered women's wealth at home.

This is naturally very unfavorable to the main battle of Jin Wushu.

After searching the mountains and seas, Jin Wushu saw Zhao Deji's weakness, and he didn't advocate peace talks in essence, but after seeing that the wolf lord got rid of Zong Han's men, he gradually had a tendency to monopolize power, and his attitude towards peace and war was not clear.

In his heart, he also didn't want the power of the wolf master to be huge and boundless, otherwise, he would become the next Zong Han sooner or later.Only war is the bargaining chip for generals and monarchs to negotiate. It is a good idea to fight this battle. It is not only a warning to the people of Song Dynasty, but also an attitude of Dajin. Anyway, it will not cause too much fluctuation in a small area.Moreover, if one of Wu Jie's forces can be successfully wiped out, it will be of great benefit, and it will be a matter of promoting one's reputation.

He immediately ordered Yelu Wuma to arrange everything, and at dusk, he rode his horse across the border of Song State and went straight to the front.

Elong Town.

Yue Pengju's wounds were under control, he suppressed the pain and looked around anxiously outside the barracks.

A jar quickly reported: "Traces of the Jin army were found ahead, and two of our strongholds have been destroyed..."

"Act immediately according to the deployment."

"Yes."

Zhang Xian and the others were ready to wait for orders. Seeing Yue Pengju took his spear and saber again, he hurriedly said: "Mr. Yue doesn't need to go in person, the young general will lead his people to go..."

Yue Pengju shook his head. Regarding this war, he and Wu Jie had been planning for a long time, and deliberately released news to let Yelu Wuma and others know that some of the troops were passing by, in order to test Jin Guo's attitude.Jin Jun was really eager to remove this thorn in his flesh, and took advantage of the chaos to attack.

Yelu's five horses led the crowd on a rampage all the way. Zhengxi Song's army was still the same, without any hindrance, and he was proud to order everyone: "Rush for a hundred miles, capture Elong Town, Wangchun Town, and Fuchun Town, and take women's treasures at will... "These three towns are hundreds of miles apart, and they are all big border towns.

Everyone was ordered to speed up, and after passing through a dense forest, it was Wangchun Town.

As soon as they stopped, they saw smoke and dust billowing in front of them. It was noon and the sun was shining in the sky. The smoke and dust danced rapidly under the sun's halo, and the quicklime and dust swayed in front of the Jurchen soldiers. I saw layers of apertures flying.

There was only a deafening shout of killing, and a group of Song troops rushed out, but it was impossible to tell how many people there were.

Yelu Wuma commanded in the center, and had never seen this kind of battle of the Song army. He was shocked, and immediately drew a knife and beheaded a fleeing army. He wanted to stabilize the battle, but he couldn't stop it, and the Jin army still fled desperately. .

He didn't dare to stay, and was about to flee when he saw a banner coming out from the opposite side, with a big "Wu" embroidered on it. He was even more flustered, and immediately understood that this was the famous Wu Jie.I saw a warrior sitting immediately, about forty years old, with a white face and a beautiful beard, majestic and very majestic.

Wu Jie laughed loudly: "Yelu Wuma, surrender quickly, and I will spare you."

Yelu Wuma was furious, and he raised his sword and came to fight Wu Jie.

In this fight, the outcome was settled quickly. Yelu's five horses were crippled with one leg and rolled off the horse. Two Wu family soldiers rushed forward and grabbed him, one from the left and the other from the right.

Wu Jie laughed loudly: "Yelu Wuma, are you convinced or not?"

Yelu Wuma was originally a descendant of the Liao Kingdom. Every time he joined the army in battle, the Jurchen general wanted him to be the vanguard in order to preserve Jurchen's own power.Wu Jie waved his hand and brought him back.

Jin Wushu took advantage of Yelu's five horses as the vanguard, but he only brought a group of fine cavalry to attack quietly.Originally, he was looking for Hua Rong, but when he arrived at the border, he immediately changed his mind.Jin Guo wanted to pull out the stronghold of Elong Town many times, but for some unknown reason, he kept letting it stand on the border.

All the way to pull out the sentry point, he found that the security here is no longer comparable to when Wang Dalong was there in the past, he immediately became vigilant in his heart, and when he passed the second stronghold, he immediately ordered to change direction.

Wu Qimai was a little surprised: "Fourth Prince, are you not going to attack Elong Town?"

"I'm thinking about it, it's quite weird here, could it be that Song has changed its garrison generals?"

"The villain didn't find out about this news."

Jin Wushu was about to retreat when he heard a cry, and a general rushed out from the slope with a long spear.

"Yue Pengju, is that you? Why are you here?"

"Of course it's me! Jin Wushu, you dare to disregard the agreement and trespass on the border, today is your death day!"

"Haha, this crown prince came to your country of Song and went straight into the land of no one. He came and went as he wanted, what can you do to me? Yue Pengju, where is Hua Rong?"

These two sentences of his were completely out of line, everyone was puzzled, but only Yue Pengju knew it well.Hua Rong's whereabouts were unknown, he was already worried, he hated King Qin to the bone, and seeing that Jin Wushu was so rude, he dared to ask his wife's whereabouts in front of his face.At this time, he was already full of resentment towards these two pretenders, so he remained calm and smiled: "Thank you for your greetings to my wife. My wife is very good, and the fourth prince does not need to worry about it. My wife guessed that the fourth prince will definitely tear up the agreement and trespass." Song Guo, you really came..."

When Jin Wushu saw Yue Peng raised his mouth and said "my wife", it seemed that Hua Rong had already returned and was intact.His heart skipped a beat, he had never seen Hua Rong injured before, and seeing Yue Pengju chatting and laughing happily, he was completely normal.Hua Rong is his wife, if something really happened to Hua Rong, how could he be so relaxed?Could it be that Hua Rong was playing tricks on him with him?
In a blink of an eye, he saw Zhang Xian and the others.He recognized Zhang Xian, since Zhang Xian and others could go back alive, how could Hua Rong be in danger alone?
The two armies confronted each other. When Zhang Xian was sent to the Kingdom of Jin, he was often humiliated by Jin Wushu. The last time, he was even caught and tortured in Zonghan's mansion. Facing Yue Pengju, sing along with him:
"Yue Xianggong, Madam was imprisoned by this guy when she was on a mission to the Kingdom of Jin. Today is a good time to take revenge..."

"Fourth prince, since you have come to your door, I will not be polite... Before I went to the expedition, I promised my wife that I would definitely take you back and let her personally send you..."

At this moment, Jin Wushu fully believed that Hua Rong must be safe and sound, and shouted angrily: "What a ruthless Hua Rong, a lowly girl from the Song Dynasty, how dare you deceive the prince like this! Yue Pengju, the prince will take your dog's head first today..."

Yue Pengju heard him speak rudely, insulted his wife, and yelled, Wang Gui and Zhang Xian raised their guns and stepped forward to fight Jin Wushu, while the others, Song Jun and Jin Jun also fought.

Jin Wushu was outnumbered and suspected he had been duped, so he dared not fight. This timidity made him even more confused, and he immediately ordered to retreat.Yue Pengju was determined to capture him, and he was no longer merciful. Although he was injured and unable to fight, Zhang Xian and others were by no means mediocre. Jin Wushu could not win the battle for a while, and there was nowhere to escape.

Yue Pengju saw that the two had been fighting for a long time, and he couldn't go into battle himself. When he was anxious, he saw Zhang Xian swung his saber down, and Wang Gui made another saber from the flank.

Jin Wushu rolled on the spot, one arm had been cut, bloodstained, unable to move.

Yue Pengju was overjoyed, but he saw Jin Wushu jumping up from the ground and slamming into Zhang Xian desperately. His style of play hurt both sides. Zhang Xian didn't dare to touch head-on. Having turned on his horse, Wu Zima let out a loud cry, flying all four hooves.

"Chasing, chasing quickly... definitely capture Jin Wushu..."

Seeing that the main general was defeated and fleeing, all the Jin troops were even more vulnerable. Zhang Xian and others chased for seven or eight miles, where is the shadow of Jin Wushu?

Yue Pengju caught up and sighed deeply, such a good opportunity, unexpectedly let Jin Wushu run away again.Fortunately, in this battle, many good horses and equipment were seized, and the harvest was very fruitful.

Even so, he felt very disappointed, even Jin Wushu was asking about Hua Rong's whereabouts, where did Hua Rong go?Is it dead or alive?
Wu Jie's camp was even more jubilant because of this big victory, and several singing and dancing prostitutes were playing and singing.Although Wu Jie is a military general, he is very famous. In his hometown, because of the beauty of the women in Chengdu, he often had wives and concubines; in the army, like all the generals at that time, there were also singing girls serving by his side.

He heard Yue Pengju coming, greeted him personally, and said loudly: "Pengju is as good at predicting things as a god, and he really won a big victory..."

He called Yue Pengju from "Xianggong" to "Pengju", obviously with the intention of getting closer.Yue Peng cupped his hands and saluted: "Mr. Wu has great love."

The two of them made plans and spread the news. The Jin army always liked a two-handed policy, negotiating peace while preparing for war, whether it was attacking Kaifeng or later Huaiyang, this was the case, and the Song Dynasty was always in a passive position.Naturally, Wu Jie was not as peaceful as the other generals. He judged that if the prisoners were to be released in this peace negotiation, there must be a warning side. Even if it wasn't Jin Wushu, other generals would take the opportunity to attack at night.Wu Jie has a great reputation, and he originally fought against the Western Xia and Liao Kingdoms. This time he fought against the Jin army for the first time, and he won a complete victory. Needless to say, he is very happy.

He invited Yue Pengju in. Although his tent still looked like a temporary command post, it was more luxurious and spacious than Yue Pengju's Elong Town.When the food and wine were served, two singing girls had already played the pipa to cheer up the wine.
