It can only be said that fortunately most of the middle and lower-level Jin troops did not have the vision to witness the series of explosions. Otherwise, even the process of gathering the troops would have been difficult.

Even this military meeting seemed a little embarrassing...because the vast majority of households failed to recover from the earth-shattering destruction of the city during the day. Many people directly lost their basic logical thinking. It was obvious that

A bit of a trance.

Among them, they even included the two top leaders in the army, Ba Lisu and Wu Shu.

In fact, deep down in their hearts, these top elites of the Jin Kingdom do not know that they must make up their minds quickly and decisively at this time, and immediately change their strategic plans. However, they know how to understand, but the impact of being on the scene in person cannot be easily exerted at all.

and left.

Several times, everyone tried to speak, but Ba Lisu and other generals from Hedong couldn't help but talk about Taiyuan. When they spoke, their words were incoherent. When Ali opened his mouth, he talked about Yuancheng and Gaojingshan, and they were all in indescribable grief.

, even the generals such as Zhen Lubu and Wanyan Benjian were in a daze and lost their minds. They lacked the stability of the veteran generals and the unruliness of the previous fights for power and gain.

"Everyone, that's good." Wu Shu wanted to speak several times, but he didn't know where to start. However, he remembered someone in a daze, so he managed to support his body and stood up next to the bonfire. "You and I have all seen it with our own eyes.

What happened during the day, I said that I knew in my heart that it was gunpowder, but in fact I was still shocked, so that my heart was in confusion and I couldn't speak properly... I will change my staff, and you all recognize it. The former commander-in-chief of the West Route Army,

Later, I asked Gao Qingyi from Gao Jingshan, whose abilities should not be doubted, to come and part ways for us."

Beside the bonfire, below the pull-out speed, the generals looked at each other in confusion. Everyone's expressions were dim and helpless, so they had no choice but to nod.

About a moment later, Gao Qingyi was summoned and listened to Ali relay a few words, but remained silent. Everyone looked around and saw that except for his eyes, which were glowing red under the firelight, his expression was calm, but they didn't know.

what's going on.

Only Wu Shu secretly told himself that he was confused and others didn't know, didn't he know? This Gao Qing native was greatly favored by Gao Jingshan, and the latter is now likely to die without a burial place, so is the former still in good condition?

As soon as he thought of this, the fourth prince waved his hand to repel the other party.

However, unexpectedly, at this moment, Gao Qingyi actually spoke. Although his voice was slightly hoarse, it was calm and serious, which lifted everyone's spirits.

"Forgive me for speaking frankly." Gao Qingyi looked calm. "The matter itself is very simple. The reason why the fourth prince, the marshal, and all the households cannot analyze it properly is not because they don't know, but because they don't want to talk about it...

Please give me a brief explanation."

Beside the bonfire, there was no conversation for a while, only the whistling of the wind continued, and the loud beeping of the bonfire was obvious.

"First, the marshal is right. If Yuancheng can be exploded like this, Taiyuan can also be exploded. Considering that today is the New Year's Eve, and the officials of the Song Dynasty marched into Taiyuan so quickly before, I am afraid there was an agreement. At this time, Taiyuan

It must have been blown up like this... and since Taiyuan City has fallen, it means that nine out of ten generals have died for their country."

Ba Lisu pursed his lips and stopped talking.

"Secondly, both Taiyuan Prefecture and Daming Prefecture fell into the hands of the Song Army. Daming Prefecture will not be mentioned here, only Taiyuan. Once Taiyuan is lost, the land east of the river will be lost, and the Jin Kingdom will lose its fundamental foothold in defense.

, the entire Hedong, from Datong to Shangdang, will inevitably be swept away easily and unscrupulously by the main force of the Song Army... Now, don't expect that these two places can still be defended. Military orders need to be issued quickly to let the two thousand households in Datong and the remnants of Taiyuan

The troops and the few left behind by the Shangdang must evacuate as quickly as possible. If it is too late, they will be blocked by the Song army and will end up being wiped out in vain."

"Is it really hopeless?" Ba Lisu finally spoke, his words difficult to speak.

"How can we be saved?" Unexpectedly, the person who responded to the request was Wanyan Benjian, who had a swollen face. He was usually depressed and uncontrollable. "Gao Tong was right. Not only was there no way to save Taiyuan, but Longde Mansion could only

Exit, be one step too late, and the Song army from the north and south press in together, which is a dead end... Looking at the movement during the day today, it is clearly a male pass. The city is useless in front of the Song people, and the several barriers of Longde Mansion cannot stop it at all.

The Song army lives in Taiyuan Prefecture. The remaining cities and soldiers are just at the mercy of others... Sa Lihe is also waiting to die!

The scene became deserted for a moment, but soon, Wanyan suddenly looked up to the sky and sighed like a roar.

After Wu Shu, all the generals knew that his family and children were all on the west bank of the Fen River. It was estimated that they had not had time to be captured at this time, but it seemed that they could not escape, and they were all so sad that they had nothing to say.

"The key is Datong Mansion." After an unknown amount of time, with the help of Gao Qingyi's explanation, Wu Shu finally gritted his teeth and admitted the reality. However, from his point of view, he was obviously more concerned about other places. "The two left behind in Datong Mansion

Ten thousand households are the key... Gao Tongshi, is it useless to have troops in Taiyuan Prefecture?"

"It's more dangerous to have soldiers." Gao Qingyi responded calmly. "Fourth Prince... let alone whether Yanmen Pass can stop the Song Dynasty, I only want to say one thing. Hebu Le is in the north with the head and the rat at both ends. Today Taiyuan City is destroyed, he

Will we continue to be neutral? If Hebule goes south, then Datong will be surrounded on three or four sides, or even the whole country may be surrounded."

Wu Shu was horrified and immediately turned around and called out: "Where is the Grand Master's slave?"

"My subordinate is here." The Grand Master's slave in the darkness was suddenly startled, and then came back to his senses.

"Hurry up and send someone, pass on my gold medal, and tell Yelu Mawu to resist Jingxing. Then go to Datong Mansion to find Xun Luguan and ask him to retreat immediately. He will retreat with as many people as he can."

Taishi Nu agrees.

"Borrow King Wei's gold medal." Wanyan Ben saw and gritted his teeth and followed. "I immediately sent several thousand troops from my headquarters to accompany King Wei's gold medal to Longde Mansion, and picked up the generals' families from Longde Mansion's Marching Department...

If the treasury can be moved, move it; if it cannot be moved, burn it!"

Wu Shu nodded blankly.

"Is Gao Dutong really dead and without life?" At this difficult time, a slightly younger voice answered with difficulty. "Can't you go and find out?"

In the darkness beside the bonfire, a few sneers sounded sparsely, and beside the bonfire, Gao Qingyi, who looked calm, remained motionless, as if he did not recognize that it was Pu Suyue's voice.

Wushu, on the other hand, sighed slightly and continued to turn around and give instructions: "Master slave, send an envoy to the other side early tomorrow morning to ask Yue Fei... The other party is reasonable and will not cover up his whereabouts if there is any... Gao Tong, please continue to talk.

.”

After these words, the campfire side became quiet again. Gao Qingyi waited for a moment before explaining the situation seriously: "Fourth Prince, what comes next is actually the countermeasures...the countermeasures are also very simple. After today's incident, just as the golden man said

, the city cannot be relied upon, the barriers cannot be relied upon... That is the plan for now, if we want to prevent the main force of the country from collapsing to the end while the main force of the country is still there, the only way is to fight in the field."

No one had anything to say.

"And if you want to fight in the field, where should you fight in the field? If the city cannot be relied on, do you have to give up?" Gao Qingyi said this, and he was also a little frustrated. "Zhending Mansion has always designated military supplies for the ruling prince to patrol the various routes.

There are countless ordnance, grain and grass warehouses, do we have to give up directly? If we abandon Zhending, what about Hejian? If we abandon Hejian again, won't we have to abandon Yanjing directly? Therefore, if we want to fight in the field, we can only abandon Yuancheng.

Taking advantage of Yue Fei's lack of horses, we quickly led the main force northward, set up formations around Zhending, and attempted a decisive battle."

Everyone still had nothing to say...because what the other party said was so right, so right that it was impeccable.

Right now, they are forced to do this by the Song Army.

"But it's not easy to fight in the field?" Ba Lisu suddenly said. "How can it be possible to fight with the Song army in the field with the current morale and morale of the army?"

"Restoring morale is nothing more than giving rewards and appeasements, or taking the initiative to find opportunities and win a few small battles... including how to explain gunpowder to the soldiers and ignorant officers who don't read the newspaper, but it is all the work of the King of Wei and

It's the marshal's duty." Gao Qingyi responded calmly. "The lower official's duty is nothing more than to tell the generals what they already know but dare not say."

Ba Lisu and Wu Shu looked at each other across the bonfire, both speechless. Wu Shu was even more prepared to work hard to appease the generals.

But at this moment, a gust of cold wind blew by someone I don't know, and the wind kept sobbing, as if someone was choking.

However, the sound of the wind stopped, but the choking sounds continued. Wushu was startled, and only then did he realize that someone was really crying, so he hurried to see Balisu, but Balisu and Wushu looked at each other, without any intention of stopping them.

.Wu Shu was completely helpless, so he wanted to get up and see who it was so as to dissuade him from coming down.

However, as he kept thinking, he also gave up getting up... The reason couldn't be simpler. He didn't know how to comfort the Hedong general who had lost his family and his ten-year residence. He also didn't know how to comfort the general who was about to lose his family.

Even Pu Suyue, the Hebei general in his hometown, wanted to cry for Gao Jingshan, but he didn't know how to comfort him.

In fact, as a gust of cold wind came again, Wu Shu sniffed at the bonfire, but found that he actually wanted to cry wildly through the sound of the wind.
