Infinite War Begins with Cao Thief

The Song Dynasty was not without its loyal ministers.

He Guan, the guard of the north gate, died in the battle on the city tower. Li Gang and others also led troops to attack the Liang Gate occupied by Dong Huang's army. They even risked their own bows and arrows and were seriously injured. He Qingyan and Chen Keli were in charge, and Zhongshu Sheren Gao Zhen They all led the troops to fight and died.

Because the censor Zhongcheng He acted inappropriately in the appointment of Guo Jing, he even wanted to personally lead the army and civilians in street battles, and he wanted to die to express his guilt. Historically, he also died with dignity.

Hearing that the outer city of Bianjing had been lost, Yao Youzhong, who had no choice but to go out of the city to rescue his troops, went out to fight in the field. He was defeated by Gao Shun's troops, and Yao Youzhong died in the battle.

Zhong Shidao, Yao Gu, Zhong Shizhong, Yao Pingzhong, Zhang Shuye, Hu Zhiru, Yu Wenxuzhong, Fan Zhixu, Wang Xiang, Qian Gai, as well as Tong Guan, Fan Qiong, Chao Gai (Cheng Yu) and others Already on King Qin's way, the fastest Zhongshi Dao, Yao Pingzhong's department has gathered 100,000 people, and is only three days away from Bianjing.

But water far away cannot save the fire near.

Bianjing fell so quickly that the local legions of the Song Dynasty, especially the elite Western Army and the main force of Tong Guannan's expedition to Fangla, had no time to return for reinforcements.

At this time, Song Huizong and Song Qinzong, who were frightened and knew that there was no hope of escape, the only thing they wanted was to surrender.

[My son-in-law/brother-in-law won’t kill me, right? 】

With such simple thoughts, the second emperor nervously offered to surrender and couldn't wait to send people to negotiate peace.

Song Qinzong even took the lead and handed over the list of his concubines and female officials to Dong Huang, hoping to follow Song Huizong's old example and satisfy Dong Huang in exchange for a chance to breathe.

This made Dong Huang not know what to say for a while.

All we can say is that Zhao Huan is definitely Zhao Ji’s son, and his mother definitely did not cheat on him.

Song Qinzong, who took the initiative to surrender, quickly followed Dong Huang's request and asked the soldiers and civilians in the city to lay down their weapons and surrender to Dayu's army.

Because the Yu army not only committed no crimes in autumn, but also announced the punishment of the "six thieves", coupled with the words and deeds of the Song imperial army who had been captured once before, the situation in Bianjing gradually stabilized.

When Emperor Qinzong of the Song Dynasty stabilized the hearts of the people in Bianjing in Dayu, he successively issued edicts in accordance with Dong Huang's request, ordering the Song army and cities north of the river to surrender to Dong Huang's army.

Zhong Shidao, Yao Pingzhong and others refused to obey the edict, and most of the city guards also rejected such a ridiculous edict; but there were also people such as Fan Zhixu, Wang Xiang, Qian Gai and others who fled overnight after hearing about the fall of Bianjing.

Of course, their escape may not necessarily mean they really want to escape.

The biggest blow to the Song Dynasty from the fall of Bianjing was that there was no emperor, or even a royal family who could become the emperor.

The world of the Song Dynasty lost a common leader.

This is a very scary thing.

There is no co-owner, which means that everyone can become a co-owner.

The Son of Heaven is the one who has strong soldiers and horses.

The Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms have only passed a little over a hundred years ago.

At this time, it seemed understandable that Fan Zhixu, the Xuanfu envoy of Shaanxi, who had 100,000 troops, wanted to lead his troops back to Shaanxi.

But Fan Zhixu's luck was not very good.

Before he could retreat to Wuguan, he heard a piece of news that made his hands and feet feel cold - Huang Zhong's regiment of the Dayu Army went south to surround Luoyang, which was empty of troops, and captured the defenseless Wuguan. The situation in Chang'an is now unknown.

But at this time, it didn't matter whether there was any news from Chang'an, because Fan Zhixu realized that his 100,000 troops were homeless.

The premise of returning to the army without stopping is that this army that is blocked from returning home still has enough fighting will and courage. However, Fan Zhixu's troops are not the most elite Western Army troops; In the Xia War, they also suffered heavy losses; thirdly, they first hurriedly armed themselves across the country, and then hurriedly ran away without even seeing the shadow of Bianjing City. The army had long been tortured and lost morale.

How could such an army be a match for the Yu army, which was full of energy and high morale?

Fan Zhixu's troops, who were eager to return home, had no choice but to fight Huang Zhong's troops at the foot of Tongguan.

As a result, they were attacked from the front and back by Huang Zhong's Tongguan garrison Yang Fu and Xia Houyuan's troops who were ambushing in the rear. Fan Zhixu's troops were severely defeated, and Fan Zhixu only escaped with his own life.

Fan Zhixu's defeat caused the Yongxing Army and Qinfeng Road of the Song Dynasty to lose their last organized reinforcements.

Since Liu Yanqing was defeated twice, Liu Fa's entire army was annihilated, King Qin of the Zhong Family Army and Yao Family Army was removed, and most recently, Fan Zhixu's entire army was wiped out. In the past two years, the traditional Western Army territories such as Qinfeng Road and Yongxing Army Road have At least 250,000 troops have been destroyed, and the last remaining members of the Zhong Family Army and Yao Family Army have been mobilized. The situation is already unprecedentedly empty.

Huang Zhong's army took 70,000 to 80,000 captured troops and turned around to capture Luoyang, Xijing of the Song Dynasty. Then he led the prisoners to easily capture Shaanxi, Pinglu, and Jingzhao Prefecture (Chang'an). Arriving at Fengxiang, they captured Fengxiang, Baoji and Dashan Pass before suspending the advance.

Fan Zhixu's defeat and the fall of Luoyang made Zhong Shidao and Yao Pingzhong's troops panic and faced a dilemma.

However, even severe situations such as being cut off and the emperor captured could not unite the two historically discordant people.

Yao Pingzhong's strategy was to attack aggressively, try to open the road to the inner city, contact the two emperors of Huiqin, and then try to protect the two emperors from fleeing.

Yao Pingzhong ordered General Wang Tong to be the vanguard and led 50,000 men who dared to die to attack the west side of the Yu army's camp.

However, as soon as Yao Pingzhong's operation began, he was noticed by Dong Huangjun's scouts.

When Wang Tong entered the two camps of Dong Huang's army, both of them were empty. Under normal circumstances, when the first camp was empty, Wang Tong should have realized that something was wrong, but he didn't know that Wang Tong was actually in trouble. Tie or Wang Tong had no choice, the only way out was to penetrate Dong Ying and rescue the second Huiqin Sect, so Wang Tong bit the bullet and entered the third village.

This made Hua Xiong extremely happy.

Originally, Hua Xiong thought that no fool would fall into his trap of luring the enemy, but in the end, a big fish actually came.

"Grandpa Hua has been waiting here for a long time. Come on, take your life!"

Hua Xiong rode a tall horse and led his army to arrive unexpectedly.

Although Wang Tong resisted for a while, he was finally defeated and died.

Hua Xiong happily sent someone to report the victory while he took a sip.

When news of Wang Tong's defeat came, Yao Pingzhong retreated thirty miles overnight to wait for his adoptive father Yao Gu's army.

While secretly hating Yao Pingzhong for his mistake, Zhong Shidao said to his subordinates: "We have made a mistake to rob the camp, but military strategists also have surprises. It will be a surprise to send troops to attack again tonight!"

So Zhong Shidao organized 30,000 elite men under his command overnight to raid Hua Xiong's army again.

Hua Xiong was unprepared and was attacked by two camps.

Hua Xiong was furious and led his guards to guard the gate of the third camp and fight to the death.

Zhong Shidao also became ruthless and took the lead in attacking.

The Zhong family soldiers, who have been serving the Zhong family for several generations, and many of their generals and fellow officers are relatives, saw that the sixty or seventy-year-old Zhong Shidao was taking the lead regardless of life and death. Everyone became ruthless and launched a crazy attack. The attack actually forced the third camp to be pushed away.

At this time, a red light appeared faintly on Hua Xiong's body, and his ability had obviously been activated.

Zhong Shidao naturally showed no sign of weakness. Although he had no concept of skills, looking at the Zhong Family Army, it was obvious that he had entered a fanatical attitude.

The last elite of the Northern Song Dynasty vowed to live and die with Zhongshi Dao.

Soldiers from both sides fought fiercely against each other and generals.

Hua Xiong suffered many injuries on his body, and the old Zhongshi Dao also stained his robe with blood.

However, Hua Xiong's persistence soon paid off.

His stubborn defense gave his cavalry the opportunity to put on their armor and mount their horses. When Hande appeared with the angry cavalry, the battle was no longer in suspense.

What's more, not only Han De appeared, but also Tai Shici, who came to the rescue after Jia Xu's military order.

…

Those two groups are full, let’s add these two first.
