Qin Min, who was struggling to support Baigouyi, never expected that the soldiers he sent out to deliver letters and ask for help to Guiyi City would come back with the news that Guiyi City had been surrounded by groups and that it would take as long as they could hold on.

Even worse than being here.

His plan to expect Zhao Zheng to send out men to help him completely kill the group of barbarians in front of him came to nothing.

What makes Qin Min even more desperate is what should she do?

Guiyi City has been besieged. If you guard Baigou Station yourself, what's the point of guarding this pontoon bridge?

Breakout?

The Jurchens on the opposite side were extremely powerful in combat. They fought in formation and even had a geographical advantage. The cover from the steep mountains on both sides was the reason why the Jurchens suffered the most casualties.

However, despite this, the casualty ratio between the two masters was still about the same.

If he broke through the encirclement, he would have to disperse the military formation and engage in face-to-face combat with the enemy. Qin Min knew very well that there were not many under his command who could compete with the Jurchens.

There have never been many outstanding people in the army of the Song Dynasty. The army of the Song Dynasty is better at annihilating the enemy with the power of the group and the superior weapons and equipment accumulated by money.

But if the stalemate persists, he will still be destined to perish.

Qin Min looked at the other end of the bridge and wondered when Liao soldiers and horses would appear there.

When that time comes, I will be the best among them.

You must escape, even if you have to survive.

Qin Min sat on the saddle, panting heavily. His eyes crossed the battlefield and saw Wanyan Bago sitting on the ground in the distance, panting heavily.

That guy was indeed stronger than me, but fortunately his weapons and armor were much worse than mine.

This guy looks like a poor guy at first glance! He has a set of clothes, all of which are the standard equipment of the Song Dynasty army that Qin Min is familiar with, that is, popular goods. For a general family like Qin Min, the armors on his body are all made by his family.

It is naturally made with the best.

As a high-ranking general, Wanyan Bage didn't even have his own set of armor. He could only be described as poor.

After waving, Qin Min called over two soldiers.

"Go tell Chen Mazi and Wang Huozui to run away after dark!" Qin Min whispered.

"Run?" The two soldiers, who were also covered in blood, suddenly opened their mouths.

"Don't be afraid, squatting here is just waiting to die!" Qin Min sighed: "After dark, we will also retreat. Everyone retreats separately, don't get together, and the ones who can escape are counted."

"General, where can we retreat? Across the river? To Guiyi City?" the soldier said in astonishment.

Qin Min shook his head: "There is a dead end on the other side of the river. We can only survive. Whether we can survive depends on our luck!"

The soldiers left silently. Qin Min looked at the opposite side again and said with hatred in his heart: "Even if I want to die, I will have to drag you with me."

Wanyan Bage felt very sad.

After a day of fighting, not only did he fail to capture the Song people, whom he completely despised, but he also lost nearly 300 tribesmen here.

He was playing with a divine arm bow in his hand, which was a trophy he had snatched back after once again breaking into the opponent's army and fighting.

It was this thing that brought the greatest harm to his people.

Just when he thought that the damage caused by feather arrows would be negligible after his tribesmen put on iron armor, the power of the Divine Arm Bow once again refreshed his understanding.

Within fifty steps, the divine arm's bow can break through armor as easily as the palm of his hand.

He picked up a crossbow arrow next to his feet. The arrow was not long and the entire body was made of iron. In Wanyan Bage's opinion, this was simply a waste.

Of course, if this were not the case, this arrow would not be so powerful.

The arrowhead was already bald. This arrow was pulled out by Wanyan Bage from a tribesman. After the arrow broke through the iron armor, it was deeply embedded in the tribesman's bones. The tribesman was killed on the spot.

After throwing away the crossbow arrow, he picked up another one. This one was shot in the open space. The entire arrow body was still quite intact. After examining it for a moment, he held the bow arm in one hand and buckled the bowstring in the other. Wanyan Bage unexpectedly

Using only the strength of his arms, he was able to unstring and string the God's Arm Bow.

You must know that stringing the divine arm bow requires the use of arm strength, waist strength, and leg strength at the same time.

The strength in Wanyan Bago's arms is truly terrifying.

"Song people are so rich!" Wanyan Bage said with emotion.

When he was in his ancestral land, he thought that the Liao people were the richest people in the world. Everything they ate, wore, used, and played with was something they had never seen before. But this time, he finally understood something.

It is said that there are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the people.

Fortunately, the Liao people did not have this thing, otherwise all the Jurchens would have been killed by the Liao people long ago.

Now, although the Jurchens have surrendered to the Liao people, the Liao people do not dare to force the Jurchens as much as they did in the past, because over the years, the Jurchens have caused great difficulties to the Liao people, and they have also made the Liao people understand

, just strong suppression may not be worth the gain.

Under the initiative of King Yelujun of Qishui County, the Jurchens began to be included in the army by the Liao people to fight for the Liao people in all directions.

He arrived at the Song people's side, and as far as Wanyan Bage knew, there was another tribe of Jurchens who went to a place called Gaoli.

"Yu Jian." Putting down the divine arm bow in his hand, Wanyan Bage shouted.

A young Jurchen rushed to Wanyan Bago in a few steps.

"In today's battle, where did we suffer the most damage?" Brother Wanyan asked.

"Both sides!" Yu Jian said with certainty.

"It's on the slopes on both sides." Wanyan Bage said: "You personally lead the team, wait until dawn, touch them, go around a little further and climb up. They are tired after a day of fighting today. They must not have thought that we would go for a sneak attack.

Even if they think about it, they will definitely relax their vigilance at dawn. Once we seize the high ground on both sides, we can counter-suppress them, and then let them see the sharp arrow skills of our Jurchen men."

"Understood!" Yu Jian nodded repeatedly: "These Song people don't have any archery skills, it's just that their bows are very tight."

Glancing at the divine arm bow at Wanyan Bago's feet, the Song people's archery was not about aiming at all, it was just shooting in patches of overwhelming darkness.

"As long as there is no suppression from both sides, I will definitely defeat the opponent's military formation tomorrow." Wanyan Bago gritted his teeth and said, "I will peel off their skins and make their heads into wine bowls."

Zhao Zheng believed that he could definitely hold Guiyi City.

But the whole day of fierce fighting made his confidence collapse bit by bit.

The Liao army attacked the city wall many times. Although they were driven back before they could gain a firm foothold, such breakthroughs became more and more frequent in the afternoon.

As long as the Liao people gain a foothold once, Guiyi City will be doomed.

After a day of fighting, everyone was exhausted.

Zhao Zheng forgot one thing. The Song Dynasty took Guiyi City from the Liao people, and before that, Guiyi City had always belonged to the Liao people.

And there are thousands of ordinary people in the city.

When Tao Dayong was here, he had killed all the Liao people in the city, but he could not kill the Han people who spoke the same language.

But Tao Dayong also took strict precautions against these people. He always gathered the strong men among these people together, and tried his best to use heavy labor to make these people have no energy to think. Now the city defense of Guiyi City is basically

The above is from the hands of these people.

After Zhao Zheng took over, such control measures were suddenly relaxed.

Zhao Zheng, who came from Bianliang City, had been influenced by too many literati in his life. He subconsciously believed that these people were the objects of oppression and exploitation in the Liao Kingdom, and he must have been looking forward to their salvation. Among these people

After the leader of the group gathered a large sum of money to pay tribute to him, this idea became even stronger.

Although Zhao Zheng's idea was severely shaken by today's attack from the Han army on Nanjing Road, he did not arouse enough vigilance against the Han people in the city.

In fact, at the end of the day, he was too tired to think about these things.

As a result, Guiyi City was destroyed.

The Han army on the Nanjing Road outside the city contacted the Han people in the city. When the sky was dim, the Han people in the city suddenly launched a rebellion. At the same time, the Han army outside the city also launched an attack.

When the Han army launched an siege, the cavalry under Yelu Jun formed a larger encirclement on the outside. The Song army, which had finally managed to break out of the city, was either annihilated on the spot or captured alive.

Zhao Zheng couldn't figure it out. They all spoke the same words and wrote the same characters. How could they betray their ancestors and help the Liao people? Don't they want to return to the Song Dynasty?

This requires us to condemn the literati of the Song Dynasty. In their writings, the Han people under the rule of the Liao Kingdom were so hot and hot, and how they were looking forward to Wang Shi's northward attack. It seemed that Wang Shi

Once they arrive, these people will immediately rise up to resist the tyranny of the Liao Kingdom and become a powerful aid to the king's division.

He had heard such words many times in Bianliang, but Zhao Zheng really believed it.

And ministers who truly understand the situation there will never speak against such a thing, because it is related to the orthodox ownership of China and the legitimacy and necessity of the future Northern Expedition of the Song Dynasty.

If we really want all the people of the Song Dynasty to discover that these Han people in Liao do not regard themselves as Song people at all, then is it necessary to go to the Northern Expedition? Is it necessary to save them?

Speaking of the people of the Song Dynasty today, I am afraid that most of them are anti-war, and their lives are nourishing. Among the taxes collected by the imperial court every year, one is specifically used to prepare for war. If it can

If you don't accept it, it's too late for them to rejoice.

So people who understand say this, but actually do things in a different way. Just like Zhao Zhe, the leader of the Jing Dynasty, in his memorial to the court, he emphasized the need to save the Han people from the fire and water.

But when he was on the Hebei Road, he really killed the Han army.

But Zhao Zheng really regarded these people as his colleagues.

It wasn't until these people cooperated with others to defeat Guiyi City and surrounded Zhao Zheng in his commanding envoy's residence that Zhao Zheng finally reacted.

When the enemy broke through his command house, Zhao Zheng once thought about committing suicide, but when the horizontal sword was placed on his neck, he hesitated. It was this hesitation that made him, the commander-in-chief of Guiyi City, join the Fourth Army.

A dignified commander was captured alive.
