In fact, the elderly, weak, sick and disabled are also very clear that long-distance hiking migration in such weather is almost a dead end...

Four hundred miles.

Without house protection and sleeping without a kang at night, you will really freeze to death.

Wang Yue's subordinates froze to death more than 100 people. He walked for five days in total, and they were all wearing tents, wearing fur coats, sleeping with special leather mattresses, and wearing dog-skin hats. In this way, more than 100 people were still frozen to death on the road, and nearly a thousand people were frostbite to varying degrees, and even those who needed amputation.

Not to mention these old, weak, sick and disabled people.

When he finally set off on the third day, Wang Yue only took away 10,000 local young and strong people, but the women and children took away more than 30,000, and nearly 30,000 elderly, weak and sick remained in Liaoyang. As for whether the Jurchens would kill them after they came back, let it go!

Anyway, all the supplies that I couldn't take were given to them.

Actually, these people are not stupid either!

Before Wang Yue left, they had packed up their things as quickly as possible, and then began to escape into the mountains and hide...

They are still very sober about the Jurchens.

Of course, Wang Yue doesn't need to care about these.

On the morning of the third day, the retreating army completed the array outside Liaoyang City.

The innermost are women and children riding donkeys, mules, bad horses, as well as plowing oxen and horses carrying supplies, and even a small number of camels. The outer circle is the young and strong riding horses and weapons, and some have even been armed with armor. Then the outer circle is 26,000 elite cavalry. The desperate resistance of the Jurchens and the powerful people in the city has caused 4,000 casualties to the expeditionary force.

This is indispensable.

After all, they killed more than 40,000 people in the city in total.

In this way, the migrating army began to form a vast array of formations and sweep across the wasteland that was still covered with snow.

On their periphery, cavalry reinforced by Shenzhou and other places have also appeared, but there are less than a thousand Jurchen cavalry in total, and then thousands of Bohai and Han servants.

They were trying to attack.

But after Yang Zaixing led Wang Yue's guards, one of them attacked and killed more than 300 Jurchen cavalry, no one dared to get close. Instead, he watched Li Shifu, who was very dissatisfied with his servants, rushed out to counterattack, and then dispersed a team of Bohai cavalry that were too close. So next while the cavalry were guarding the formation, these fierce generals started a competition, and even Chi Zhanhui personally led hundreds of elite troops to defeat a Han cavalry.

This huge army that no longer needs to be hidden, simply chose a straight line, and they crossed the Liao River again the next morning.

Then the enemy troops in western Liaoning also appeared.

But there were not many Jurchens. After the surrender of the western Liao Dynasty, the Jurchens had actually forcibly moved a large number of surviving people. For example, Qianzhou in the north of Jinzhou was basically no one. The entire Liao Kingdom was originally a population of more than 10 million. The Han people and Bohai in the prefectures and counties under the Five Capitals had only less than 900,000 households. In addition, tribes such as Khitan, Xi, and Jurchens were only 1.5 million and 600,000 households. So far, since the official launch of Aguda, they have been fighting for eight years.

Since the Liao army was defeated in the Battle of Bubu Dagang, the Jurchens have been fighting south for six years.

How many living people are there!

Speaking of which, the remaining population in the entire area may not necessarily be as large as that of Wang Yue’s group!

Just those cavalrymen who came here scattered and who dared to provoke a cavalry legion of 30,000 to 40,000 people?

Just follow from afar.

There were even those who thought about their hometown who simply came to surrender, including some Khitan fugitives who had previously wandered in this area, who simply joined in.

In the end, Wang Yue spent another six days returning to Jinzhou.

At this time, his total number not only did not decrease, but also increased by more than a thousand.

"Yan Gong is a real god!"

Han Qingmin, who came to greet the river, exclaimed with admiration on the bank of Daling River.

"It's just a small matter, but we have to make it clear first. Among these populations, the Khitans belong to you, and the rest belongs to me."

Wang Yue said.

He did not bring Khitans in Liaoyang, but he defected to him halfway, and they were all nomadic on both sides of the Liao River. In such places where wars and chaos are always around, there will be no fewer refugees. He definitely doesn't want these. Bohai and Han people can take them, and Khitans have to stay in the north to fight for their dream of the Great Liao.

"This is natural, everything is followed by Mr. Yan's orders!"

Han Qingmin said.

"Also, I have to lead my army back immediately. Jishou still has to continue to defend Jinzhou. If the cold land is frozen today, your master will not be able to counterattack. Jishou needs to hold on until the beginning of spring. Even if the war goes well, it will probably have to pass the summer. You have to rely on Jishou here. But don't worry about food and salary in the future. As long as the sea is thawed, my ship can transport the food directly to Jinzhou. At that time, even if your subordinate does not farm, Wang will not starve you loyal and righteous people."

Wang Yue said.

"Don't worry, I've been sticking to it for many years, and I don't care about staying there for another year or two.

In fact, it is the most difficult winter. In spring and summer, the rivers thaw and floods surge. The Jurchens rarely attack, let alone brother Zhongming helps."

Han Qingmin said to Chi Zhanhui with a smile.

"Yes, don't worry, Mr. Yan, Mr. Han will leave his back to me!"

Chi Zhanhui said.

He had completely changed his position at this time...

Anyone who sees Wang Yue dragging a 200-pound grinder as a meteor hammer will find it hard to have the courage to have a strange intention to him!

Not to mention it will explode.

There was no city that could be defended in front of Wang Yue. He betrayed Wang Yue, but he could only be killed by Wang Yue and his grandchildren who were hostages, and then conquered Laizhou and killed his whole family. On the contrary, loyal to Wang Yue, even if the Jurchens sent troops to attack him, even when Han Qingmin and Zhang Rong blocked the north and south, they could only send a few thousand men to Zhongjing to cross the mountains and ridges, and attack without logistics support. Faced with such an enemy, as long as he was determined to be able to hold on, he would be appreciated by Wang Yue, and his family would continue to be rich under Wang Yue.

He is indeed a fence-breasted man.

But fencemen are the smartest ones.

He is not a fence-bearer who is purely greedy for life and death. In fact, this guy is also a powerful general on the battlefield. In the Battle of Fuping, he and Han Chang were Jin Wushu's right-hand man. He was lured into the swamp by Liu Qi, and finally he led his subordinates to fight out.

He is just smart in calculations of interests.

"Okay, there are two people from the Great Liao Dynasty, and this revival is just around the corner!"

Wang Yue said with satisfaction.

Since this is the case, he doesn't have to worry about it.

Isn’t it just that I will hold on for another half a year? Who knows what will happen in half a year? Even if Tianzuo failed to counterattack, he was captured alive by the Jurchens.

At that time, at the worst, I would have to find another hope for these people.

Yelu Dashi's sons were still in Yanshan, and his five sons were all there, and he had already recognized Wang Yue as his godfather. Once Emperor Tianzuo was captured, Yelu Dashi would definitely be independent in Kedun City. At that time, Yelu Dashi's son was just allowed to lead them.

What's more, Tianzuo had a son who escaped in history, which means he maintained the Divine Calendar regime for less than a year.

On the Hulunbuir Prairie.

Therefore, the hopes of these Daliao remnants will not be cut off.

Anyway, there are food, drink and dreams. They will continue to fight here with the support of their dreams. They are all about raising Zu Dashou here. As long as there is food and drink and the logistics supply is sufficient, Zu Dashou can also stick to it. What's more, Han Qingmin's loyalty to the Liao Dynasty must be far more than Zu Dashou's loyalty to the Ming Dynasty...

Wang Yue only rested in Jinzhou for five days.

The main reason is that the food here is limited. Although there is a lot of food in Liaoyang, because there are not many livestock transported, he just took food on the way. When he arrived in Jinzhou, many livestock had to slow down and look for food in the snow that began to melt. In this way, tens of thousands of people in Jinzhou consumed a very terrifying number of food every day. It is estimated that it will take not long to eat all the food here. In fact, he had to slaughter the sick livestock to make food.

So you can't stay for too long.

Fortunately, the snow in Jinzhou had basically melted at this time, and the grass that was originally covered with heavy snow was exposed. Those livestock could find food for themselves, and they would not need to feed extra feed without fighting. This would save the consumption of livestock. As for losing weight, they would lose weight. At worst, they could go back and feed more good food.

Moreover, Chizhanhui also tried his best to ensure their supply.

Wang Yue even took a group of people to the beach to hunt down the innocent seals.

By the way, he finally extended his claws to these cute animals, but this is indeed a good business in the future, allowing Han Qingmin and others to make money by hunting seals. This hat will save the dog from harming it.

In this way, the migrating army continued to move forward, slowing down one stop at a time along the Liaoxi Corridor. By mid-February, they finally left Yuguan and arrived at the new city of Pingzhou. Zhang Rong had personally brought people here to greet him. Then he brought Wang Yue a bad news...

New City.

"I broke the siege of Taiyuan for the official family, and risked my life to lead an expedition to lead a lonely army, fighting bloody battles to break through Liaoyang, but the official family was behind him to instigate the Jurchens to attack my Yanshan City? Is this the reward for the official family's loyalty to me?"

Wang Yue said sadly with a loyal minister's expression of grievance.

Well, his Yanshan City is surrounded.

Ten days ago, Aguda personally led an army of 100,000, and suddenly walked out of Feihu Road. Yizhou and Zhuozhou surrendered one after another without fighting. Then the Jurchen army crossed the Sanggan River to encircle Yanshan City. The Song army on the southern front watched the wall and did not send out a single army or a soldier to attack the Jurchen army. Even the news that Zhang Yong had just obtained was that during this period, the Song army also sent troops to try to retake Qingzhou, but was repelled by Shi Jin, who was left in Qingzhou. Zhang Yong blocked the news very cleverly, so the news that Yanshan City was besieged has not yet left Yu Pass.

"Official family, the official family is indeed a bit disheartening!"

Zhang Rong sighed.
Chapter completed!
