In this battle, Wanyan Huonv was defeated. Nearly half of his cavalry were hit by poisoned iron nails and soon lost their combat effectiveness. More horses fell down due to poisonous hair. Without their horses, only the Jurchen soldiers were left.
The fate of being slaughtered.
After the casualties exceeded 40%, Wanyan Huonv ordered to retreat eastward, but was pursued by the Song army from behind. The Jurchen cavalry was completely defeated, with countless casualties. Wanyan Huonv led the remaining army and fled to Deshun Prefecture in embarrassment.
In this battle, more than 60% of the Jurchen cavalry were killed, and the remaining cavalry fled in panic. Even Wanyan Huonv was hit by two arrows and almost died.
After more than an hour of fierce fighting, the Song army also paid the price of more than 1,500 casualties, but being able to defeat the extremely powerful Jurchen cavalry still made the Song soldiers extremely excited.
They cleaned up the battlefield, left Ganquan Fort with more than 3,000 war horses, a large number of weapons, armor and other property, and officially headed south.
.........
The people in Ganquan Fort were evacuated to various counties in Qinzhou. Chen Qing gave them a large amount of horse meat and grain, and many carts that could not pass Jianmen Pass were also left with the people. Tens of thousands of people reluctantly said goodbye.
, the army left Qinzhou and entered Fengzhou.
Four days later, the army arrived in Hanzhong. Chen Qing ordered Zheng Ping and Yang Yuanqing to lead the army and baggage teams to continue southward. Chen Qing led 500 soldiers to Nanzheng County.
It’s funny to say that this was the first time Chen Qing met Zhu Shengfei, the Sichuan-Shaanxi Xuanfu envoy in Hanzhong. He had to admire Zhu Shengfei’s official audacity. Zhu Shengfei wanted to kill him before, but now he suddenly became very polite.
With a smile on his face, he also expressed his regrets with deep regret.
"The officials transferred the most powerful general of our Western Army away without asking my opinion. This is a huge loss for our Western Army. Alas! There is no way, the Holy Will is difficult, and I can't save him. Here is my sincere heart
I sincerely wish General Chen a bright future and good luck!"
Chen Qing did not bother with him, signed the resignation letter, and handed over the military badge and seal. This meant that from now on, he had nothing to do with the Western Army.
Chen Qing actually wanted to say goodbye to Wu Jie and Liu Ziyu, but Wu Jie went to Ziwu Pass and Chen Qing only saw Liu Ziyu.
Liu Ziyu accompanied Chen Qing to the city. Liu Ziyu sighed and said: "Sichuan and Shaanxi will be ruined by the civil service system of the Song Dynasty sooner or later."
Chen Qing asked in surprise: "What happened?"
Liu Ziyu shook his head, "Too many things have happened, which makes people angry and hard to explain!"
"Tell me briefly!"
"I'll just say two things and you'll understand.
Wanyan Wushu changed his strategy. He built the city 150 steps away from Dashan Pass. When they rushed to repair the southernmost city wall, the Song army could use crossbows to shoot at the craftsmen and enemy soldiers, but Zhu Shengfei sent
The supervisory army was not allowed to start a war without permission and had to ask the Xuanfu Envoy for instructions. Five days later, the Xuanfu Envoy's order came down. They could attack as appropriate, but the city walls had been built and there was no chance of shooting the enemy.
The second thing happened seven days ago. The scouts sent by Wu Zhang found that there were only 5,000 Jin soldiers in Dashan Pass, but the logistics and food supplies were piled up like mountains. This was a troop deployment error by Wanyan Wushu. If at this time,
Sending troops to attack will not only defeat the Jin soldiers, but also take away a large amount of baggage, but..."
"Because it has to be reported to the Xuanfu Envoy and the Xuanfu Envoy will make the decision, right?"
Liu Ziyu smiled bitterly, "This kind of fighter plane is fleeting. The next day, the strength of the Jin soldiers increased to 30,000, and the fighter plane was lost in vain."
Chen Qing sighed slightly, "This kind of long-arm jurisdiction really delays the war effort. I'm afraid there will be more of this kind of thing in the future."
Liu Ziyu shook his head, "I'm not afraid if it's a delay in fighting. I'm afraid it's a blind command. Everyone is worried. Once the war breaks out and he fully intervenes in the command, the Great Sanguan will definitely not be saved. Wu Jie hoped that he would give up several times. This
It was for the Song Dynasty and to protect the country, but he thought Wu Jie wanted to seize power, so he refused to let go. Instead, he intensified his efforts to seize power. Now that Wu Jie wants to appoint a governor, he must obtain his consent. What do you mean?
?”
Chen Qing nodded, "I can understand, so when the emperor decided to transfer me away from Sichuan and Shaanxi, I didn't want to disobey, but accepted it happily. This is the reason. I really can't accept this kind of boss!"
Liu Ziyu was silent for a moment and said: "We all hope you can come back!"
"I also believe that this day will come!"
.........
Chen Qing left Hanzhong and headed south. In the morning, the army arrived in Chengdu and stationed outside the city. Chen Qing then entered the city with his own soldiers.
As soon as he arrived at the gate of the city, he met a soldier riding towards him with an anxious look on his face.
"Xu Ge!" Chen Qing shouted.
Soldier Xu Ge saw Chen Qing and quickly dismounted his horse. He knelt down on one knee and saluted, "See the capital control?"
"Are you going to the military camp? Where is Yan Jun?"
"Qi Dutong, something happened to Yan Dutou."
Chen Qing was shocked, "What happened?"
When Chen Qing saw people coming and going at the city gate, he pulled his soldiers aside and asked, "Tell me, what happened?"
"Reporting to the capital, the incident happened ten days ago, but it only intensified yesterday."
Chen Qing calmed down and said, "Tell me in detail and start from the beginning!"
Xu Ge nodded and reported to Chen Qing in detail, "Ten days ago, everyone went to visit Qingcheng Mountain. When we came back, we had dinner in Dujiangyan. As a result, we met several yamen. Because during the meal, the two girls did not wear curtains and hats, so they were
Seeing this, a yamen came forward and threw down two pieces of money and asked the two young ladies to take them away. Miss Lu angrily accused this person of having no regard for the laws of the country and being daring. When the yamen saw Miss Lu's beauty, she probably had evil thoughts and said
He teased Miss Lu a lot with obscene words, but Yan rushed up to the second floor and slapped the yamenei out."
"Then what?"
"Then we returned to the inn. The next day, the yamen came to apologize, and we found out that the yamen who was beaten was Wu Shaoyi, the son of Wu Xiang, the prefect of Chengdu. When we saw that he apologized, we did not pursue any further investigation, and the matter was over.
Already."
"Then why is there another commotion?" Chen Qing asked.
"It should be that their apology was just a tactic to stabilize us. In fact, they have been monitoring us. Yesterday, Miss Lu saw that everyone was working hard, so she suggested that Yan Dutou give everyone a day off. As a result, at noon, suddenly
A large group of government officials came and said that Yan Dutou was a spy of the Jin Kingdom. None of the brothers were there. As a result, Yan Dutou was taken away by them. They also took away two young ladies. Just as the brothers came back, they caught up with the carriage.
They snatched the two young ladies back, but Yan Dutou's whereabouts are unknown."
Chen Qing nodded, "Have you finished talking?"
"It's not over yet. This morning, we received an unsigned letter asking Miss Lu to take the two young ladies to the Wu Mansion to apologize, and they would let Yan Dutou go. Everyone didn't know what to do, so they just heard
News of the arrival of the capital’s commander-in-chief’s army.”
Chen Qing felt murderous intent in his heart, "Don't they know that the young lady is mine, and don't they know Miss Lu's identity?"
"To report to Dutong, Miss Lu was not allowed to reveal her identity, but Yan Dutou told him that the two young ladies were the maids of Dutong, but it was of no use."
Chen Qing snorted heavily, handed the token to a soldier and said: "Go to the military camp quickly and call General Zhao's scout battalion to the inn!"
The soldier took the token and ran away. Chen Qing immediately got on his horse and ran towards the inn.
When he arrived at the door of the inn, Chen Qing got off his horse. At this time, Zhuang Quan, the deputy head of the capital, came out and said, "Du Tong, you are finally back. Something big has happened."
"Xu Ge has told me, what is the situation now?"
"Just now, a carriage brought Yan Dutou back. Maybe they heard the news about the arrival of Du's army."
"How are you? Are you still alive?"
"The man is still alive, but his condition is very bad. His body is covered with bruises. He has passed out and the doctor is diagnosing him."
Chen Qing walked into the backyard of the inn without saying a word and with a livid face. When he came to the yard of the soldiers, he saw Lu Xiu and Lu Wei both in the yard, their faces full of worry.
When Lu Xiu saw Chen Qing, her eyes turned red and she came over to greet him. Her voice choked with sobs and she said, "I never expected that such a thing would happen."
Chen Qing held her hand and comforted her: "I'm here, don't worry, I will seek justice. You go back to the room first!"
Lu Xiu nodded and took Li Mei back to the room.
Lu Wei sighed and said: "I'm really useless, it won't have any effect at all."
"You can't say that. If this were Lin'an, you would definitely handle this matter well, but this is not Lin'an. It is a place you are not familiar with at all, so don't blame yourself. No one will blame you!"
Lu Wei felt a little more comfortable. He did go to the government office to negotiate and use his grandfather's name, but they didn't buy it. The key is that his grandfather was dismissed as prime minister.
At this time, the doctor walked out of the room, and Chen Qing quickly asked: "How is the injury?"
The doctor shook his head, "The attack was too cruel. There is not a single piece of good flesh on the whole body. The entire legs and back were beaten to pieces by the whip, but the flesh wounds were nothing more. The key is that both legs were broken!"
At this moment, Deputy Dutou Zhuangquan came to report: "Prefect Wu brought his son to apologize!"
