Chapter 958 Earthquake Thunder ([-])

There are some great things in this world.

Mountains and rivers fell, and dynasties changed. At a certain point, these huge historical events completely changed people's lives, determined the future direction of an entire country, and left an indelible mark in the history books.

But in a very small place, it can't really interrupt every day people experience, no amount of grief can change people's physiological needs, no amount of humiliation can make people forget to eat and drink.

In the first month, Lin'an, a fragile balance has been established naturally in this war-torn city.

The Jurchen entered the city in May of the previous year.After entering the city, there have been continuous fighting and suppression, and there have been hundreds of thousands of people breaking through and fleeing.A large number of craftsmen were arrested by the Jurchen soldiers and escorted north. There were also countless rapes of women; the city resisted again and again and was massacred.

After several months of chaos, the large city, originally populated by more than a million people, has more than [-] residents.The market still needs to be opened, the supplies still need to be circulated, and the government offices are already in operation. The officers of the government offices are tracking down some trivial matters of robbery and robbery, and occasionally hunt down some criminals who disrupt the social order. The brothel Chu Pavilion has opened a few more.

The guilds in the market have also been organized one after another. In the past, after the local gangs that collected protection fees were destroyed, there would also be men with big shoulders and round waists to fill the gaps. Occasionally, one could hear who and who had a relationship with the Jurchen, had a backstage, etc. statement.

After Zhou Yong left, the small court that took over in Lin'an continued the existence of the "Wu Dynasty". The basis of their existence stemmed from the several regent ministers left behind by Zhou Yong when Zhou Yong left - Zhou Yong took Qin Huizhi with him when he escaped. The confidant of the class, entrusted several ministers to stay in Lin'an to conduct continuous negotiations with the Jurchen.Of course, among the courtiers, there were also diehards who faced Zongfu Zongbi's mighty and unyielding force, but within three months, of course, they died cleanly.

Since then, the "Wu Dynasty" court gradually gathered a team with a group of characters such as Tie Yan and Wu Qimei as the core.

The court of the Wu Dynasty had issued letters of persuasion several times in the name of Zhou Yong, asking Zhou Junwu to give up his resistance and negotiate with Jurchen for the sake of the world.After Zhou Yong died at sea and Jun Wu Jiangning proclaimed himself emperor, the court took out Zhou Yong's "blood edict", accusing Zhou Pei of killing ministers in order to seize power, murdering the king at sea, and accusing the prince of not obeying the king's orders. , deprived Jun Wu of the inherited power.

So, when Jun Wu proclaimed himself emperor in Jiangning and changed his reign title to "Zhenxing", the small court in Lin'an found a lost royal family who was rumored to be related to Zhou's blood, and based on Zhou Yong's blood book, he established himself as emperor. , and the era name is "Jiatai".

Compared with the "former crown prince" who went to the throne and proclaimed himself emperor in Jiangning and then abandoned Jiangning, Emperor Jiatai was kind, gentle, and caring about the world and the people. After taking the throne, he began to reflect on the past mistakes of the Wu Dynasty, and the other The side began to actively negotiate with Jin Guo, hoping to find a proper way to calm the war and save the people of Li.

At this time, Jiangnan was already in dire straits. Although in the general direction, the people all over the world did not have a favorable impression of the Jin Kingdom, the Lin'an small court chose to publicize in another direction.

On the one hand, it claimed to be actively conducting peace talks with the Jin Kingdom. On the other hand, the small court in Lin'an threw out a large number of black materials of public opinion that had been suppressed in the past few decades, including the corruption and incompetence of the Wu Dynasty court, and Cai Jing's one-handed cover. Tian and Tong Guan's redemption of the sixteen states of Yanyun, incompetence in military affairs, fear of death by military generals, even the filthy secrets of Emperor Jinghan Zhou Zhe and many emperors, and the wanton deeds of emperors in court affairs. ……Etc., etc.

Since the shame of Jingping, after the Jurchen captured Zhou Ji back to the north, these black materials have actually been spread to the south every year, but when the orthodoxy of the Wu Dynasty was still in place, the court was able to completely suppress these remarks. , even if there is an occasional slip through the net, at least the people of the eldest princess's mansion are still there, and the court still has centripetal force, and someone will come forward to refute.

But in the blank period after Zhou Yong left, all public opinion was really in the hands of Lin'an Chaotang.

"Speaking of these things, although the Jurchen is ferocious, but the Wu Dynasty has reached the current level, it is really... blame it..."

"Civil officials form parties, emperors have no way, military generals are greedy for money and fear death..."

When the new and the old change this year, such sighs can often be heard from the mouths of the surviving scribes in Lin'an City.

As for people with higher status and better information, of course they know more things.In order to maintain the orthodox qualifications of the "Jiatai" emperor, Zhou Yong was not involved in the black material of the court, but the ugly state of Zhou Yong abandoning the city and fleeing when the Jurchen soldiers approached the city is clear in the hearts of every big family.

When the elders of these big clans no longer suppressed public opinion, people talked about the farce of Zhou Yong abandoning the city and leaving, talking about the stupid things over the years, and even talking about the "former prince" who fled after Jiangning's succession to the throne. , shook his head.It is strange to say that in the past, people were not aware of it when they were in it, and when they were able to talk about it freely, most people could not help but feel that it would be a strange thing if such a country did not perish.

More than half a year has passed since the fall of the Wu Dynasty. Among them, the massacres of the protesters, the inner struggles of the swingers, the conflicts and struggles between the surrenderers and the rebels, the blood flowing on the field of law and in the city, piles of pieces. Difficult to describe in detail.At the end of this year, after most of the fierce resisters have been eliminated, the court headed by Wu Qimei and others has temporarily stabilized.

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Li Shan, the minister of officials, rode in a carriage and crossed the streets of Lin'an, preparing to go to Wu Qimei's house for a gathering.

The curtains of the carriages were lifted, and the street outside was still deserted. There were not many shops opening the doors. Snow was accumulating on the side of the road. Passersby with their sleeves wrapped around them seemed to be looking at everything in the market with gloomy and hateful eyes. It is the figure of the "powerful".Li Shan can always detect the taste of daring to be angry and not to speak.

It is the misfortune of the world to be born in a time of great upheaval.However, if you survive, you will be content.

With this thought in his heart, he lowered the curtain of the car.

No one is born evil, and, of course, few people are born to die.Sometimes it is necessary to make a fool of yourself, sometimes it is necessary to move forward in a roundabout way, and sometimes...for example, the Wu Dynasty has been extremely corrupt, and you can only let go of it.This is Li Shan's current view.

Li Shan's mentor is the current Right Prime Minister Wu Qimei.The Wu family was a big family in the south of the Yangtze River. During the Jinghan period, the political core of the Wu Dynasty was still in the Central Plains, and the power in the south of the Yangtze River was on the fringes. Although Wu Qimei had a scientific name when he was young, he was tired of the officialdom in his early years. After losing in the political struggle, he returned to Jiangnan and lived in seclusion to support his hopes. His talent and name were similar to those of Qian Xiwen and others in Hangzhou at the beginning.

After the fall of the Central Plains, the court that moved south had to rely heavily on the power of the Jiangnan clan, and the Wu family thus became a pivotal clan in the south of the Yangtze River.Wu Qimei has a heart - when he is frustrated, he often compares himself to Qin Siyuan, who has experienced the Black Water Alliance. At that time, Qin Siyuan had not yet been rehabilitated, but as the leader of the big clan, many of the internal feelings can be clearly seen. After Qin Siyuan's recovery, many actions, including disaster relief, the Northern Expedition, and the persistence of Taiyuan and Bianliang, Qin Siyuan worked hard and paid too much, but finally fell into the balance of the officialdom. These things made Wu Qimei feel very concerned.

However, even though he has the talent of the world, after the court moved southward, he gave the big clan in the south a status and power, but he set foot in several positions in the center, but he was still in the hands of a few court elders-Zhou Yong knew that his ability was limited. The appointment of officials only seeks to be secure, and the promotion of new people and the support of new forces are not very strong.

As a result, Wu Qimei could not reach the peak of officialdom, but his reputation was already high, and his family was powerful.For this reason, after Jianshuo Chaotang settled in Lin'an, Wu Qimei established the "Jun Society", which means "reasonable importance to ten thousand Jun", secretly supported many people, and established a small circle in the official circle.This can be considered a political roundabout. If he can't act as a figure, he simply makes his status more detached and becomes the person behind the Wu Dynasty court.

In fact, the "Jun Society" established by Wu Qimei once hoped to become a "Jun Society", which is similar to Qin Hui's idea.Zhou Yong's governance can only be said to be a symbol. Many people wanted to put their chips on Jun Wu at the beginning. Wu Qimei herself has huge connections, strong strength and outstanding ability. There are many available disciples - no matter how you look at it, she looks like The second Qin Siyuan, but until the end, the stunned boy named Zhou Junwu did not recognize him, which made Wu Qimei also feel resentment and shame.

Sure enough, there is no shortage of capable ministers like Qin Siyuan in this world, but this world is already rotten, and there is no room for one or two Qin Siyuan.

——Li Shan was not very clear about the reason for this situation.He originally studied in Wu Qimei's home, but he was promoted to the position of Jinshi by Wu Qimei in Jianshuo three years ago, and his career has been smooth since then.When the Jurchen came, Li Shan once called for resistance, and even thought about fighting with the Jurchen vigorously.But when these ideas are not in sight, they can be generous and generous. When things come to an end, everyone is still a little hesitant.

Later, with Zhou Yong's escape, the teacher was heartbroken and cried out that the Wu Dynasty was about to die, but what about the common people?When the Jurchen entered the city, the situation took a turn for the worse. Some people chose to resist generously, and then they were massacred.Tie Yan, Wu Qimei and others stood up and tried to save the innocent people of Limin, and the small court was established.

Although these things are humiliating, they may also leave infamy in future history.But if no one does this, the world will only die more.

What can people like ants know?

The carriage went all the way, and after arriving at Wu Qimei's house of the Right Prime Minister, many people had already arrived.These people were either Li Shan's apprentices or brothers, or Wu's friends and confidants above the court, and many of them said Happy New Year to each other after meeting each other.Li Shan met with several acquaintances, and what they heard was mostly about the expansion and training of the new army by Chen Wei and Dou Qingfeng, the capable generals of the Wu clan.

Since the fall of Lin'an, looking at the outside world, three battles have been fought: one is the former prince who is still being chased by Zongbi's troops; The battle between Zong Hanxi and Yin is not over yet.

But for the people in the Lin'an court, except for Zhou Junwu's existence, it is a threat right now, and for the black flag - after all, the other party has not been near Jiangnan for more than ten years. Things that have not been seen in more than ten years, the real feeling is not enough after all.

The army is what all factions in the Lin'an Small Court care about today.

As to why it surrendered and why the Wu Dynasty perished, the truth can be broken into a flower.But the capitulators are not naive - or it can be said that only the capitulators understand the reality.Tens of thousands of truths can't save one's life. Once the Jurchen withdraws, the only one who can rely on is the army.

Fortunately, the rule of the Wu Dynasty has collapsed, and the various forces and ethnic groups that make up the small court often have their own "base areas" and spheres of influence in many places.After the surrender, the first thing the big clan headed by Tie Yan and Wu Qimei promoted was conscription--Zongfu Zongbi was not disgusted by such behavior, or it was because of their help that the forces in various places were created. such an action.

For the Jurchen, who is beyond the reach of the whip, a "Wu Dynasty" in the south of the Yangtze River, which is chaotic and divided but generally inclined to the Jin Kingdom, is in the best interest of Daikin.For the forces of all parties who have chosen to surrender in order to save their lives, they can best ensure their own safety by destroying the Taoism of the Wu Dynasty at the fastest speed, so that they cannot rely on "righteousness" to turn over.

Due to such a tacit understanding, in the past few months, Zongfu Zongbi was chasing Jun Wu and looting trophies, while the people in the Lin'an courtroom were smearing the Wu Dynasty and carrying out a busy enclosure movement.Wu Qimei sits in the center, and several generals under his command have more than [-] troops in various places. Li Shan and other civil officials are working hard to transfer some of the resources still reserved in Lin'an Court to these troops, hoping that they can quickly transform into elites. In the future, it will become the basic strength of the new Wu Dynasty.

Since Wu Qimei was compared to Qin Siyuan, there are many similarities between the Wu clan and the Qin clan back then.For example, after Wu Qimei became prime minister, he quickly established a new secret investigation division of the Wu Dynasty, presided over by his most trusted disciple Gan Fenglin, and collected various people from all corners of the country to work for him.Among the disciples, there are people who are serious about business, so Wu Qimei takes it very seriously.

When everyone gathered together, they occasionally talked about the Qin Department's past.Speaking of monk Jue Ming, he said that he has royal blood after all, but because of his relationship, although he has a great reputation, it is actually difficult to match; when it comes to Ji Kun, he said that he was born as a servant, and he can handle the finer things, but he is not good enough; He assisted Zhou Pei, but he couldn't prevent the royal family's conflict in advance, so that Zhou Yong fled and the power of the eldest princess's mansion collapsed quickly, which was also embarrassing.

There is also Ning Liheng, the act of murdering the king is too reckless, if you take it slowly, how can this world get to where it is today... People are talking about it, and there are many kinds of things.

In the evaluation, there are naturally hidden contrasts.Now that Zhou Pei has gone to sea, Zhou Junwu has fled from east to west, and the war in the southwest is even more distant. Wu Qimei, Gan Fenglin and others occasionally talk about Zong Hanxiyin's strength, and not many people dare to question the strength of the Black Flag Army. In the more than two months since the Jurchen slaughtered to the southwest, not only the Jiange side fell to the Jin Kingdom, but also various rebellions of various sizes in the southwest, one after another.

According to the news from the southwest, just in mid-December, during the confrontation between the Black Flag Army and the Jin people, more than [-] rebellions have arisen in the areas under their control.These rebels were either dozens or hundreds of people, taking advantage of the Jurchen attack and the black flag's head and tail, they destroyed the road behind the black flag army and led their troops into the mountains.

The most urgent thing facing Li Shan and others today is not the Black Flag Army. Wu Qimei and others occasionally talk about it, and they are quite sober from the onlookers: the civil strife in the southwest is because Ning Yi used veterans to go to the countryside and competed with the villagers for power. resulting consequences.

——Ning Yi used veterans, inspection teams, storytellers, and military medical teams to go down to remote villages. The scholars in these villages secretly said that the Black Flag Army was a catastrophe that ignored the law of nature, a devil without a king and no father.

"Those who break the rules, the rules will turn around and eat him."

The war in the southwest that is far in the horizon has already had a direction in the eyes of Lin'an people. Occasionally, it is more interesting to mention some anecdotes and anecdotes of the year: the La Rising in front of more than ten years and occupying Hangzhou, the devil Ning Yi will Once trapped in this place, the Ba Dao Camp where he was in the past is now two streets away from the Prime Minister's Mansion, but the scenery of the past has long been different. As for the present mansion of the Right Prime Minister, It was a more famous place back then. It used to be the old family house of the great scholar Qian Xiwen. When Fang La broke down the city, Qian Xiwen led his family to resist. It was renovated several times over the years, and finally became the residence of the Right Prime Minister.

During the gathering, these anecdotes spanning more than ten years were narrated by Gan Fenglin, the prudent "eldest brother" among the crowd. Li Shan looked out and saw the snow-covered plums in the courtyard. Come on.Thinking about the past ten years, I only feel that although Lin'an is still in the hands of Jurchen, in the future, I will not be able to exhale and raise my eyebrows, and there is a sense of pride in my chest.

After chatting about anecdotes and anecdotes, after a while, their topic turned to the most urgent conscription training.

At this time, it was the fifth day of the first lunar month in the first year of the rejuvenation of the Wu Dynasty—or the first year of Jiatai.Not many people realize what a turbulent and overwhelming year will come.But just this afternoon, the battle report from the southwest reached Lin'an, which violently shocked everyone who was in Lin'an at this time.

That was the news on December [-] that the Huaxia Army had broken through the Yuyu Stream and was in a row.This news was like a blast of thunder, and it even shocked Li Shan and others for a while.He could clearly remember the faces of Wu Qimei, Gan Fenglin and others that day, and when he got to the private gathering that night, he heard Wu Qimei pondering for a long time, and said with a gloomy expression: "What is in his hand is the Your own, from now on, the new army, is the first priority."

Wu Qimei didn't emphasize too much, and everyone knew it clearly: in fact, whether it was Zhou Junwu's comeback, or the Southwest really resisted the attack of Zonghan's army, the only one who could really save them would be the army in their hands.The battle report from the southwest only sounded the alarm bell more severely for them.

This gloom continued for seven days. On the evening of the twelfth day of the first lunar month, Li Shan was quickly summoned to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion. At this meeting, Wu Qimei was calm and joyful: "I said earlier that those who break the rules will not end well. "

The second battle report from the southwest reached Lin'an at the fastest speed.

These days, the battle situation in the southwest has changed rapidly.

The Battle of Yushuixi on December 24 not only brought great confidence and benefits to the Huaxia Army, but also detonated the determination of some local forces behind the Huaxia Army who were still waiting to see.Beginning on the [-]th, several turmoil organized by village sages and landlords broke out in various parts of the Southwest. Although these turmoil did not directly affect the overall situation, they indirectly separated the already tense troop deployment of the Huaxia Army.On the night of New Year's Eve, in Huangming County, Ba Lisu once again launched a flood-like attack on the Huaxia Army.

Seemingly stimulated by Yuyuxi's defeat, Huangming County's attack was violent and unusual, and for three consecutive days, Tu Lisu personally launched wave after wave of violent attacks.The resistance of the Huaxia Army on the Huangming Line of Defense was also extremely tenacious, but it still suffered huge casualties.

During this attack, Ba Lisu gathered a large number of Han troops who had been hoarding on the front line, and even drove some of the wounded Han troops, ordering them to launch a frantic attack on a part of the city wall.Huangming County has experienced two months of tenacious defense, and the casualties are not small. The staff is ready to take advantage of the fact that the Han army in front is not strong and fight back.

The offensive and defensive situation in Huangming County did not actually give Pang Luan's second division much choice.Compared with the intricate terrain of Yuyuxi, Huangming County is just a city wall. In front of the city wall is the battlefield, and in the past is the Jurchen camp and the narrow mountain road. Once the Jurchen commands the army to attack, even the cowardly Han army will not be able to. room to fall back.If the Black Flag Army did not accept the surrender, the army could only continue to attack the city head, or wait cowardly to die on the battlefield.

The defense of the second division is extremely tenacious, and the number of artillery pieces is also the largest in the Black Flag Army. For more than two months, the battlefield exchange played by Huangming County is more dazzling than that of Yuyuxi, but in any case, their The losses were also heavy - even though it was already the best result in a defensive battle.

The turmoil in the New Year has tightened the Huaxia Army's lines. Although Huangming County can still defend, the increasing casualties are always worrying.Considering that Yuyuxi's defeat was only ten days away, Jurchen had not yet adjusted his attitude towards the Han army at a factual level, and the position in Huangming County began to recruit and surrender some of the Han army.

The counteroffensive broke out on the evening of the third day of the first lunar month. After hearing that the Huaxia Army had opened an opening for surrender, the Han army turmoil on the battlefield began.Pang Lu'an assembled an elite group of forces to drive them from the rear. A Han army unit that decided to surrender cut into the Jurchen position from the middle of the battlefield, and the chaos spread in an instant.

The whole chaos lasted on the battlefield for nearly half an hour, and the chaos continued to expand. A group of Xi Ren elites was cut off in front of the battlefield, and almost the entire army was wiped out. The black flag elite assault group rushed forward, and another Han general in the rear barracks on the Jurchen side took the opportunity to attack, detonating a small half of the arsenal, and the flames burned the sky.

The situation was realistic and delicate. Pang Luan and Chief of Staff Guo Chen finally made a decision to invest two more regiments of troops to attack with the greatest strength to finalize the battle situation in Huangming County.

When 3000 people were thrown into the battle and kept pushing forward, a Han army was chasing the head of General Xi Ren and rushed towards the city headed by the Jurchens. On the other side, there was another elite Han army, An attack was launched against the black flag team that rushed out of the city wall.

After waiting with peace of mind for more than two months in the rounds of attacks, the defenders of Huangming County entered the position of Tu Lisu, a female veteran whose status was second only to Xi Yin, Yin Shu Ke, and Shu Lisu. in the calculation.When tens of thousands of Jin Guo elites came to counterattack, shouting "You are in the game", the Han troops who were preparing to defect on the battlefield also chose their position again.

At the end of the day, hundreds of cannons fired at the city of Huangming County, corresponding to the Jurchens' cannons firing at each other.Even though the power of the cannon was overwhelming, half an hour later, the raging army still broke the thin string of defense at the top of Huang Ming's city.After all, the second division at this time was no longer in the state of exhaustion at the beginning of the war. They lost 4000 people, and later added [-] new recruits.When more than [-] people were thrown into the battlefield, the defenders on the top of the city, which were just enough, finally showed their flaws. That night, since the Jurchens set foot on the top of the city, the tragic fighting, attack and defense, Huang Ming Everywhere in the county town.

What Tu Lisu showed in this battle was not such a bizarre plan. It was more like the peak of his use of the art of warfare in his entire life. On this day, whether it was a rout or chaos on the battlefield, it was interpreted extremely realistically. It is this kind of realism that gives Pang Luan and others just the right temptation, making them involuntarily choose to attack when they most need a decision-just because they do not attack, the huge victory is fleeting, and Huangming County will continue to fall into Fierce attack and defense day after day.

The third day of the first lunar month also happens to be a key psychological point: after the defeat of Yuyuxi, the distrust of the Han army in the Jurchen army has been rising, and the Huaxia army has responded to this, such as printing leaflets, calling for surrender... By these means, the position of the surrendering Han army became more embarrassing.

The staff members of the Huaxia Army are actually somewhat proud when they talk about these methods.But such pride and pride blinded people's eyes to a certain extent.

On the night of December 28, Zong Han called everyone together for a heroic mobilization. In essence, he was trying to stabilize the position of the Han people in the army. The road is narrow, and these Han troops cannot be withdrawn or killed for a while. If their morale cannot be stabilized, the Jurchen battle in the southwest will basically be unnecessary.

In the ten-mile meeting on 28, Ba Lisu, who was sitting in front of the town, never participated. He launched an attack on the [-]th night, and on the third day of junior high school, theoretically speaking, it was impossible for the Jurchens to properly deal with the Han army... Such factors have deepened the authenticity of the Jurchen chaos.

On the fourth day of the first lunar month, the Second Division of the Huaxia Fifth Army was defeated in Huangming County.

Corresponding horizontally to the battle of Huangming County, there is actually another round of battle.

From the first day of the first lunar month, the Jurchen launched a secret and high-intensity round of deployment to the front line. In the early morning of the second day of the first lunar month, the Yushuixi position, which had just completed the defense, was attacked by the Jurchen, and the rear was not completely In the reorganized prison camp, a rebellion broke out. On the front line of Yuyuxi, Wanyan Zonghan, the commander of the West Route Army, once arrived on the battlefield and launched an attack.

This information caused a certain degree of misleading to the Huaxia Army Staff Department, who believed that the Huangming County offensive, which had always been stable in the war, was actually to cover the storm on Yuyuxi - this kind of desperate risk has always been the style of the Jurchen, so Failed to respond in the best possible way.

A mistake on the battlefield, and then people will pay an unforgettable price.

It took half a month before and after the Battle of Rainwater Creek and the Battle of Huangming County, and the news arrived in Lin'an, only seven days apart.As soon as the head of Huangming County was broken, this battle report was quickly sent back to Lin'an, more than [-] miles away, at a speed of [-] miles, so that the ministers of Lin'an could make decisions as quickly as possible.

After receiving the battle report, Wu Qimei's face turned red, but she was relieved.

The Jurchen defeated the Huaxia Army, indicating that the situation in the world was still within their grasp and speculation.If one day, Wanyan Zonghan and the others are defeated by the Huaxia Army, it may mean that the direction of the world has completely departed from their predictions and the category of "common sense". For them, it is the most terrifying. thing.

"Practice... hurry up and train."

This night, Wu Qimei repeated this sentence briefly and forcefully, with a modest and righteous manner, with the bearing of a big man.

After everyone breathed a sigh of relief, they nodded in response to the power of this sentence.

At this moment, the big figures in Lin'an have not yet realized that this turbulent spring has just begun, and their awareness, speed and strength cannot even keep up with the changes in the next message.Just after the Jurchen broke the Huang Ming line of defense, the battle situation in the southwest quickly became involved in a fierce and fierce battle.

The scouts ran at high speed in the mountains and forests. Qu Zhengyan, Han Jing and others led the horse team and tried to cut into the side and rear of the opponent's army several times along the rugged mountain road.This is a period of fast-changing adjustments on the battlefield, and the armies on both sides are trying to seize a loophole and expand the chaotic situation before the other side regains its footing.

On the twelfth day of the first lunar month, when Wu Qimei received the first Huangming war report in Lin'an, he once stationed troops in the north of Jianmen Pass, facing the Jurchen rear defense of the Huaxia Seventh Army, under the leadership of Qin Shaoqian, moved towards the south. The Jurchen back line struck the first blow.

Facing the most powerful Huaxia army, which was always intimidating the Jurchen's retreat, Wanyan Xiyin, who was sitting in the rear, made a movement without haste.From the 2th of the first month to the [-]th of the first month, during a total of seven days, this [-]-man army was blocked by seventeen Han troops of the same number, and defeated the seventeen troops.

Intense and ferocious changes are brewing in more places.In the first month of the first month, in Fujian, Chengzhouhai, who was appraised by Wu Qimei, Gan Fenglin and other people as "embarrassing and useful", quietly entered the city of Fuzhou, which was being controlled by Tie Sanwu, the cousin of Tieyan, the left minister of Jiatai Dynasty.On the ninth day of the first lunar month, a rebellion broke out in the city of Fuzhou, and the army slaughtered Fuzhou.

On the same day, the eldest princess Zhou Pei, dressed in a bright yellow fashion, stepped on the city wall of Fuzhou with human heads still hanging under the guard of everyone.Looking at the snowy fields in the north of the sky through the piercing cold wind.In that direction, Jun Wu, Yue Fei, and Han Shizhong's team were still being chased by the Jurchen army.

Near Tanzhou (Changsha), Yinshu could defeat Zhu Jing's troops and slaughtered Juling County on this snowy day. Chen Fan and others built a line of defense near Tanzhou, but they also fought and retreated. Among the commandable army, a huge conspiracy is quietly brewing:

A young Han army general named Yu Mingzhou gradually gained the trust of Wanyan Qingjue because of his brutal and extreme character after ruining his own army twice and losing three fingers in the war.Before long, this young general will show his hideous face behind Wanyan Qingjue and Yin Shuke...

The spring has not yet come, and the earth has been shaken by thunder.
