Chapter 263: The imperial commander returns to Zezhou, and the heroic army fights in Hebei. Take an attack!

Zhao Huan got off the car slowly, his beards and eyebrows trembled. The east was already whiter, and it reflected that Zhao Huan's head was as white as snow. A man in his fifties was like an old man in his sixties or seventies. I think it would be really hard for the king of the country to die in the south and the north.

This night was even more ups and downs, and life and death were only in the front line. Even though Zhao Huan was already numb about his own life and death, as long as he followed Bodi to Youyan, if he wanted to return to Kaifeng in this life, he would have to be in a dream!

Therefore, after leaving Xuande Gate, Zhao Huan burst into tears along the way, but was driven by tiger and wolf soldiers. Where can he have a little chance of life?

Unexpectedly, when the carriage was not stable, the sound of swords and guns in his ears were heard. The sound of fighting was shocking. At that moment, it seemed that he had returned to the moment before the Jingkang Nian City was broken. He was shocked and filled with joy. In just a moment, he realized that the Yue family army launched an unprecedented attack at the critical moment when the Jin people crossed the river and successfully controlled the situation on the weak bank of the river. Soon, the carriages around him were surrounded by iron armored cavalry. These were good men of the Song Dynasty! They were no longer barbarians of the Jin Kingdom!

Zhao Huan knew that he was still in the middle of life and death. He didn't even dare to look out at him. He could only look out between the gaps in the curtains. He was full of expectations for the result of this fight, such as being trained by his father when he was young, or seeing the crown princess at the first wedding night, his heart was like a deer, not knowing whether it was a disaster or a blessing.

But the situation finally became clear. The howlings of the Jin people gradually became sparse and went away. All I heard were the long-lost Song army orders around. Even if a small-scale Jin people occasionally attacked and tried to approach the car, they were immediately wiped out by the powerful Yue family's elite cavalry and could no longer pose a threat.

When the major event was settled, only the sound of water was heard by the river. The army had controlled everything by the river. No longer could hear the movement of the large group of people. Zhao Huan could not stop crying: he had finally returned to the people of the Song Dynasty!

Hearing Yang Zaixing's voice coming forward to see him, Zhao Huan tried hard to stop his tears in the car, wiped his face dry, and lifted the curtain in the refreshing river breeze. In front of him, a young hero and a long-bearded general stood up. Without asking, it is clear that the elderly must be Yang Zaixing.

When the soldiers of the Yue family army saw Zhao Huan appear, they shouted loudly that the sound of long live cheering the banks of the river. Zhao Huan was also excited. This voice was in such a sharp contrast to the lonely voice of Li Qiong in the Kaifeng Hall a few days ago. After more than 30 years, they could finally hear the cheers of the people under their rule. Zhao Huan felt that he had no regrets in his death.

After a moment of dullness, Zhao Huan, who was no longer young and impulsive, woke up. Everything about him relies on the two generals who commanded the army in front of him. Even after returning to the hands of the Song people, he faced the embarrassing situation of the two emperors in Jiangnan and Hebei. How to deal with him in the future depends on how the two generals in front of him should be dealt with, and on the other hand, it also depends on the idea of ​​Lin'an's Ninth Brother. To put it bluntly, life and death are also in the hands of others, and it may not be much safer than in the hands of the Jin people!

At that moment, Zhao Huan cheered up and stepped forward to Yang Zaixing. Yue Lin helped his hands and said tremblingly: "The achievements of the two families are the most powerful and the most powerful. If you can return to the country in this life, how dare I forget the virtues of your family?"

Yue Lin didn't know how to deal with it, but Yang Zaixing said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty is wrong. This is the duty of a minister, how dare you reject it? Please return to the car. The Jianghuai period has not been calmed down for a while. We will temporarily station in Zezhou. Wait until the army goes north and all the troops will be restored to Hebei. We will choose a date to return to the capital. This is not a safe place and we cannot stay for a long time!"

Zhao Huan was shocked and knew that this was true. The Jin people had strong strength within hundreds of miles of Kaifeng and should not be underestimated. It would be unimaginable if these more than 10,000 soldiers and horses had to protect the troops and conquer cities and land under the rule of the Jin people.

At that moment, the imperial commander followed the army and rushed to Zezhou.

It turned out that although Bodi acted secretly, he was wrong to force all the merchant ships of Li Gudu two days in advance. Thinking that between the Song and Jin Dynasties, more than 95% of all the large ships above 500 stones were owned by Jincheng merchants, and the remaining 100 stone to 500 stones were owned by Jincheng merchants, and nearly half of the remaining 100 stone to 500 stones were used. As long as Bodi crossed the river, he could not escape the money from Jincheng merchants, let alone such large-scale atrocities? In one day, the information flew into Jincheng with the pigeon books. Just as Yue Lin had finished training the recruits, he went to Zezhou Shumi Administration to pay the order. After Yang Zaixing received the book, he analyzed with Yue Lin. After seeing the scale of the ships, he couldn't help but be shocked: "No, Bodi wants to withdraw all his troops and horses!"

Yue Lin was still in his dream, not knowing what he said, and asked: "The golden thieves in Kaifeng Prefecture have greatly reduced their ability to recover the plan but not to be harmed. Why do uncle think it is bad?"

Yang Zaixing shook his head: "If it is based on the current situation between Jianghuai, how many Jin people are there in Kaifeng are actually fine, but Emperor Jinde is Bodie's important task in Kaifeng. If all the Jin people retreat north, will they hand over the emperor to the Han army?"

Yue Lin was stunned and then understood: "Yes, I will not hand over the emperor to Li Qiong - not good! Bodi wants to take the emperor to return north!"

Where can I still need a small merchant at this moment? The huge place in Hebei, where Li Gudu is located, Zezhou Prefecture is the greatest force. Yang Zaixing dared not reserve any reservations, and brought all the cavalry troops in Zezhou Prefecture, and even thousands of infantry that could be loaded by carriages. Only then did he get 15,000 yuan to the north of the ferry overnight, clear all the Jin people first, then be careful to lurk, secretly communicate with the sailors and ship workers on the ship, especially leaving the ship where Zhao Huan was driving.

When the Jin people crossed the river in large numbers, the Yue family army was reluctant to send a message until Zhao Huan's car had already arrived and the boatmen sent a signal. Then the army rushed forward and submerged a small group of Jin troops who had crossed the river in advance. They grabbed Zhao Huan in their hands at the speed of thunder and guarded the river bank position, defeating all the Jin people who had crossed the river until no one could threaten the safety of the imperial guards.

After everything settled down, Zhao Huan and Roufu met Da Yan at the Secretariat Mansion in Zezhou. Yang Zaixing ordered everyone to transform the Secretariat Mansion into a simple palace, but moved his home to the Zezhou Prefecture Office to work with Hong Hao. Yang's family was moved back to its original place, and more than 2,000 elite troops of the Yue family acted as temporary Yulin Guards and strictly guarded the Zezhou Prefecture. In a few days, the Zezhou Prefecture was earth-shaking. Although the people were smiling and the civil and military officials were in a great mood, Yang Zaixing and Hong Hao were so anxious that they broke off their beards and called important personnel of the Secretariat Mansion to discuss the plan together.

How to place Zhao Huan is not so anxious that Yang Zaixing is. What is important is how will the Jin people react when they grab Zhao Huan from Bodi in such a big move?

"At present, most of the main force of the Jin people are still in Mobei, and they are entangled with Wang Gu's tribe, Kelie's tribe, etc., but after a big event, I am afraid that in just over a month, there will be news to Wanyan Liang's ears. It is expected that the army will be promoted from Mobei to the south, which will take at least two months. Wanyan Liang is not a fool, so he must make up his mind before making plans and moves, and he must spend all his troops, horses, money and food. Therefore, it is necessary to ease some time, but it will not be too long. It is already the end of July, and the army will not last more than November at the latest. There is not much time left for the Yue family army to prepare!"

Yang Zaixing's calculations made the important members of the Zezhou army very nervous for a while.

If we talk about the strength of the cavalry in the world, the Yue family army and the Jin people can be good at winning the game, but they have not fought with each other. If the Jin people win this battle, they will not only gain all the family assets that Hedong and Hebei have worked hard to save in recent years, but also obtain many military weapons in Jincheng. I am afraid that they will go south to Lin'an in a blink of an eye. If Wanyan Liang's army can be defeated in Hebei, even if they cannot "go directly to Huanglong", they can at least take the land of Youyan. At that time, the Jin people can only return to Liaodong to survive. At the same time, facing the continuous invasion of the Song people and the Mongolian tribes, there will be no more time!

The success or failure of this battle is related to the luck of the world for thousands of years, and it is absolutely unwilling to be careless!

Now that things have come to this point, it is not the turn of people to hesitate too much. After Yang Zaixing summoned all the civil and military officials to discuss, he issued a series of military orders. On the ground in Hedong, there were already 170,000 new and old soldiers, including the old main troops of the Yue family army. Except for the more than 20,000 elite soldiers and horses under Yue Lei remained unmoved, the remaining 150,000 soldiers and horses were all mobilized and took the initiative to attack Hebei.

Cai Jin and Niu Gao led the main force of Taiyuan Prefecture, with a total of 57,000 infantry and cavalry, and went out to Taihang to attack Zhending Prefecture, chasing Hebei's key rush.

Ling Xuefeng, Gao Lin, Yue Lin led the main force of Fenzhou and Pingyang Prefecture to a total of 61,000 troops and horses. They went out of Luzhou to attack Daming Prefecture. If they were taken, they would go north to Xingzhou and attack Hebei's confidant land.

Yang Zaixing and Yue Lei led Jiezhou and Zezhou's main force to 39,000 troops. They first took Weizhou lightly, and then stopped the troops north of Li Gudu, the Yellow River, and sent a letter to Li Qiong, and ordered him to gather the Han army out of Kaifeng to gather and accept the reorganization of the Yue family army. Although it seems that there are fewer troops and horses here, it is extremely difficult. If he attacks Kaifeng Prefecture with him, he will be afraid that there will be many people. However, Yang Zaixing learned from Zhao Huan's details and used his trump card: an edict written by Zhao Huan himself!

"Although you were punished by the state and committed suicide by serving the thief, you have always been a loyal and brave man and a willingness to serve the country. This is what I have known. Now where the Hebei rebel army arrives, the thief's power is declining. The king's army travels thousands of miles, and they will be defeated when attacked. You have always been known as wisdom and courage. I don't think it is necessary to make a clear decision. If the king's army goes back and forth, it will be a blessing for you and the Song Dynasty!"

Li Qiong received the imperial edict and bowed to the north, and cried with joy: Zhao Huan's imperial edict clearly proved that he had pardoned his crime of killing the Minister of War in the north with the weak imperial power still remaining in his hands. Xu Chong was a minister of the Song Dynasty, so how could he cry without gratitude!

On August 17, Li Qiong led the Kaifeng Han army to siege more than a thousand cavalry remaining in the city, and did not give the other party a chance to surrender or resist. Within half an hour, he killed every Jin army and then turned around and swept the city, capturing all the Jin officials in the city into the prison. Even the Han officials who had committed many evil deeds over the years were arrested. Then he closed the treasury and swept the streets and alleys of the Song people in the city, leading the main force to 25,000 soldiers and horses to the north gate waiting for Yang Zaixing to deal with it.
