Summer rain pours heavily.

Let’s say that summer is a time of abundant rain. The previous days without rain seemed to be just to accumulate rain clouds for this heavy rain. But the rain was so drenched, but it was basically a forcible fall representing the providence of the two warring parties.

truce document.

It is indeed God's will.

First of all, as Academician Xiaolin reminded us before, no matter how fierce the battle was, it was just a rout in the field that lasted for half a day, and there was no example of an siege battle. The main force of the Jin Army had sufficient animal power and was more versatile.

There were Wanyan women on the north route, and Wanyan Sali and more than 10,000 troops as backup. Therefore, if the Jin army going north really wanted to withdraw, the Song army would have nothing to do.

In addition, in this battle, from the foot of Yao Mountain to the east slope plateau, the Song and Jin armies suffered countless casualties. Among them, although the specific numbers have not yet been clearly verified, the Song army suffered heavy casualties, and the casualties were two to three times that of the Jin army.

This conclusion is very easy to draw.

This can be seen from the situation of the well-known generals of the Song Army... Except for Zhao Zhe, the military commander who had to change the military law before the battle, there are only senior generals who can reach the imperial court directly, including Qiao Ze, Li Yongqi,

Five people, Jiao Wentong, Li Yanqi, and Murong Wei, were directly killed in battle, and this figure accounted for almost a quarter of the generals at the same level who participated in the battle.

Calculated in this way, this battle was so tragic that it is impossible to find out anything about the founding war of Zhao and Song Dynasties.

However, because of this, when the main force of the Jin Army moved north and the Song Army was helpless, facing the Jin Army's partial division Wanyan Wushu Department who still had the possibility of encirclement and suppression, the Song Army vowed to defeat them at all costs.

This force was swallowed up entirely to expand the results and make up for the losses.

The effect was very direct. On the afternoon of the second day after the battle, in the rain, Zhang Xianbu of the Song Army finally encountered the last large-scale battle group of the Jin Army in the swampland east of Wulong Mountain and west of Beiluoshui.

At that time, they were gathering together, trying to cross the Song Army's defense line and go north to the area controlled by the Jin Army. When Zhang Xian heard the news and arrived here, he immediately ordered the entire army to abandon their horses and fight the Jin Army on foot in the swamp in the rain.

.

This Jin army obviously had senior generals in charge, and they knew that going north was the only way to survive. In addition, they were fighting in the rain, so the battle was extremely fierce at the beginning. But soon, as reinforcements from the Song army continued, Xu Shian came from Wulong Mountain

When reinforcements arrived, Cheng Min, Liu Yan, and Li Yongqi's son Li Shifu led almost all the cavalry forces of the Song army to gather them from the north, even at the expense of reducing their numbers. The last effective resistance of this Jin army was easily extinguished.

Among the armies that came to the aid, except for Liu Yan's troops who were open to one side and willing to surrender, all the other tribes slaughtered wantonly. After the first battle, a small number of the Jin army surrendered and most of them were killed. Only a handful of people tried their best to cross over before they could rise.

Beiluoshui got up and continued walking eastward, trying to escape.

During the wanton massacre by the Song army, Liu Yan, who had a low official position but obviously had a higher political status, learned from the prisoners that Wanyan Wushu and Han Chang were likely to escape to the east, but it was Li Shifu who commanded the most murderous troops.

He led his party Xiang Qingqi to continue crossing the river in pursuit... and must cooperate with Dong Min, who had already locked the Beiluoshui-Liangshan passage before this, to capture the latter two and bring them to the imperial front.

Not to mention that Liu Yan's literary mentality was never in line with other military leaders, nor did he mention how Li Shifu became red-blooded because his father died in the battle. It was only said that Wanyan Wushu, the fourth prince of the Jin Kingdom, and Han Chang, the ten thousand households of the Jin army, managed to survive under the protection of their confidants.

Crossing Beiluoshui, we hurried all the way in the rain, but there was still no way out, so we could only continue walking eastward to avoid being hunted by the Song army.

Another day passed, in the afternoon, they smelled the rolling waves in front of them in the rain, and then saw a patch of yellow turbidity in the rain curtain, and then they realized - it turned out that they were walking eastward and actually escaped from a house in two nights.

After more than a hundred miles, we arrived at the bank of the Yellow River.

At this time, Wu Shu looked around and found that there were only a dozen riders left, and all of them were injured. He recalled that just a few days ago, he led 20,000 people upstream to cross the Longmen westward, and then the hard work of marching along the way.

, the shock of the battle that day, the subsequent brutality of being chased by people searching the mountains and rivers, and the dead end at hand, made me feel sad and shed tears in front of the roaring Yellow River.

As soon as Wu Shu cried, the few remaining Jurchen soldiers around him also started to cry, and the more they cried, the sadder they became, and the more they cried, the weaker they became. They cried until their voices were hoarse, their whole bodies were weak, and they cried until they were just waiting to die.

But just by crying, a man tied to a horse woke up from crying.

"Why are you crying?" Han Chang was in a mess, and half of his face was swollen. He had been tied to a horse because of a fever and coma before arriving here. At this time, he heard the cry and woke up.

, but he managed to straighten up and asked on the horse.

"I'd like to teach General Han to know." A soldier took the initiative to explain, wiping his tears. "We have passed through Beiluoshui, but we still haven't escaped. There are Song troops everywhere, looking for us everywhere. We ran north several times without success.

I just lost my life, so I had no choice but to run eastward, and ended up on the edge of the Yellow River, completely dead..."

Han Chang nodded, but looked vaguely at the saddest crying Wu Shu: "When the soldiers reach the end of the road, they can cry. But why is the fourth prince also crying with his head in his arms?"

Although Wanyan Wushu was feeling miserable in his heart, he was also confused by the question, but he shed a tear and looked at him blankly: "Why can't I cry? Am I different from them and am I not on a dead end?"

"A dead end is a dead end, but when faced with a dead end, people should not be the same." Han Chang tried to shake his head immediately, but even this movement was difficult. "They are ordinary soldiers, no matter how desperate the road is, they only have their own lives.

You can do whatever you want, but you, the fourth prince of the Jin Kingdom, do you think your life is only yours?"

It was okay not to say these words, but after hearing these words, Wanyan Wushu broke down and burst into tears again: "General Han! It is my incompetence that has ruined tens of thousands of people... This time, don't say that there is a dead end, there is a bridge and a boat

, how can I have the nerve to cross the river to see my brother?"

Hearing these words, Han Chang actually sneered, but the pain was unbearable because it affected the injured area. He could only lean down on the horse's back, biting the horse's mane to hold back for a moment, and then he lay on the horse's back and slowly spoke again:

"What the Fourth Prince said is absolutely true...but the dead are already dead, so what's the use of thinking too much? Don't you want the living if you only want the dead? What will be the situation in the Song and Jin Dynasties after this war? East Road

How about the Western Route Army? How about the king and the marshal of the capital? The Kingdom of Jin has only been established for twenty years, will it be destroyed because of this battle? As the fourth prince, you have a transcendent status, so you can always do things for the country, right?

?Are you really going to cry here and wait to die? Regardless of the overall situation?"

Wu Shu tried his best to suppress his voice and turned back to look at Han Chang, but he could only see him lying on the horse, with a bloody and dirty eye socket exposed on the wet mane... He was also horrified for a moment, but he was shocked at the same time.

Inexplicable.

The Fourth Prince of the Kingdom of Jin knew that what the other party said was reasonable, but he still couldn't control his feelings: "General Han, what you said is very reasonable. I also have many thoughts about the future in my heart... But now, even if I want to leave, there is nowhere to go.

Can you leave? And you are so seriously injured, how can I abandon you?"

"Don't say such things." Han Cong held his hands and continued to sigh softly on the horse. "There is no perfect road for man. In such a situation, if you take off your armor and jump into the Yellow River... 90% of the time, you will not die.

, isn’t there still 10% that can pass? Isn’t it also a way to leave your clothes here, pretend to enter the river, and then take advantage of the rain to crawl into the mountains to the north overnight? As for my life, you will not abandon me, and I will

How can we survive?”

Wanyan Wushu was speechless for a moment.

But Han Chang continued to be weak and urged: "Go quickly. Even if a man is born in this world, even if he dies, he should die of exhaustion like General Lou Shi. It's ridiculous to cry by the river and wait for death like this."

… Do you have the strength to cry, but not the strength to run?”

At this point, Han Chang was extremely exhausted and was just breathing heavily.

Wushu stood up and was about to speak when he heard a cry of surprise from the soldiers around him. He originally thought that the pursuers were coming, but when he followed the sound and looked around, he realized what was going on - it turned out that the Yellow River was a turbid yellow river.

Above, there is something like a white dragon approaching from the upper reaches, and then it spreads its teeth and claws in the rain, which makes people feel frightened.

Many Jin soldiers simply bowed down and knelt down, while Wu Shu's attempt to escape, which Han Chang had just tried so hard to muster up, was completely extinguished.

There are pursuers behind, and there is a big river in front of you. You are determined to cross the river with all your strength, but a dragon comes down smoothly and blocks your way. In this situation, who can still have the slightest bit of courage?

However, as the object gradually came closer, and then got stuck on the side of the dead branches on the shore and continued to float up and down, Wu Shu and others boldly took a closer look. Only then could they see clearly that this so-called white dragon was actually just a few feet long.

It's just a dead tree with its skin peeled off. It's just because the Yellow River has swelled and the turbid waves are rolling. It follows the waves, just like a dragon controlling the water, showing its teeth and claws.

Wu Shu stood in a daze, looking at the dead tree that kept swinging up and down, still like a dragon waving its tail. He didn't say anything for a long time, but then suddenly began to tear at the broken clothes and armor on his body, and after a while, he took off everything.

Then, the fourth prince turned around with his upper body naked, leaned over the unconscious Han Chang on the gravel ground by the river, and kowtowed with all his strength: "General Han's words, I will never forget them in my life!"

After saying that, regardless of whether Han Chang heard it or not, Wanyan Wushu turned around and waded into the water, hugged the dead wood among the debris, and pushed it into the river with all his strength.

There were more than ten Jin soldiers accompanying him, but no one came forward to help him, and no one imitated his behavior of nine deaths and nine lives. They just kept silent and stared at the fourth prince as the driftwood rolled into the Yellow River.

Ups and downs, and then quickly escaped from the sight of the downstream waves.

Two quarters of an hour after Wu Shu disappeared, more than a hundred Dangxiang cavalrymen from Li Shifu's army arrived. The remaining Jin army informed Wushu's whereabouts and the identity of Han Chang on horseback, and then asked to surrender, but all the Dangxiang soldiers who had been ordered by Li Shifu were killed by the river.

, then only Han Chang and Wu Shu Yi Jia were brought back overnight.

At noon of the next day, the rain had stopped early, and Han Chang was sent to the Yaoshan camp where he was still waiting for news by changing horses. After hearing the news and knowing this person, the result was the final ending of the Yaoshan battle.

An officer also came to the Chinese army camp to watch.

"General Han, you must be a Han hero. If you can surrender, you will be treated as a Jiedushi envoy immediately. Although your injuries are serious, they may not be unable to be treated in time. Even your family in Yanyun, we can take the initiative to claim for you."

Come back!" Seeing Han Chang being 'carried' to the general's platform in front of the Chinese army's tent, a civilian official immediately came down and persuaded him to surrender.

In addition, although Han Chang had a bumpy night and his eye sockets were already numb, he was able to avoid the rain and enjoyed the soup just before coming up. However, he was somewhat energetic. At this time, he managed to raise his head and saw that it was No. 1 Middle School.

A young civil servant, he just laughed: "Who are you? Do you mean what you say?"

"I am Zhang Jun, the Fifth Route Envoy from Bashu." Zhang Deyuan, who had rushed to the battlefield as early as the night before the battle the day before yesterday, said sternly. "Why don't you count?"

"What kind of transfer envoy? He doesn't even have a seat. Your official family still has that one... he should be the prime minister, sitting on it. If you really want to persuade him to surrender, why not do it in person?" Han Chang squinted his only one eye and looked.

Looking upward, he blinked hard towards someone there.

Zhang Jun turned around to look at Zhao Guanjia and the only Prime Minister Yu Wenxuzhong sitting next to him. Yu Wenxuzhong, who had just arrived yesterday, hesitated for a moment and was ready to come forward to persuade him to surrender.

But at this moment, Zhao Jiu spoke directly from the seat: "Han Chang, you have repeatedly invaded the south and committed serious crimes. I originally wanted to kill him to comfort the elders in Henan. But more than one person spoke up. Mr. Yuwen said to Zhang Jun

You are from the Yanyun Han family, and if you can surrender, you can separate the Yanyun family and cause internal strife in the Jin Dynasty. Wu Jie said that you are a serious and dignified general in the Jin army. Once you surrender, you will be able to shake up the entire Jin country; and Liu Yan,

It is also said that you have always been brave in battle and are indeed a talented general... I thought about it and felt that what these three people said was indeed reasonable, so I agreed... Yes, if you can surrender, I will allow you to take over your position and try your best to replace it.

Even if you take your family back, you can still lead the army!"

"The foreign general believes in the words of the Zhao family and is grateful for the kindness of the Zhao family." Han Chang took a few deep breaths and finally became serious. "But it is a pity that the foreign general is Yan Yunhan'er. Although he is willing to surrender to your majesty, who is the backbone of the Southern Court,

But he is unwilling to surrender to the Southern Court... Because no one in the Yanyun-Han family looks down upon the cowardly Southerners! The officials can just open their mouths if they are willing, which is enough to let the foreign generals die and respect themselves... Now I just want to die!"

As soon as this statement came out, many generals were angry, and Zhang Jun also wanted to argue with him.

But Zhao Jiu didn't leave any space, but directly waved his hand: "General Han's words today, I dare not forget... behead him! After his death, he first sent the troops of the various states in Guanzhong to show the public, and then he was buried here according to the ceremony.

Place."

Everyone from Zhang Jun down to silence their voices.
