Rebirth: Overthrow Song Dynasty

On the afternoon of August 12, the rain still did not stop.

At this moment, the family members of those Jurchens also felt something was wrong. Even if they were going on an expedition in the past, there would still be defenders here. But now, Taiyuan City is truly empty, with no defenders.

Some family members of Jurchens came to the city wall curiously and looked at the surrounding scenery.

In the old days, it was impossible for them to land on the city wall. The defenders would stop them, but now there is no one to stop them.

"Look, there are so many soldiers and horses over there!"

"Daddy, are they back?"

"Daddy, they are all cavalry, how come they are all infantry now?"

At this moment, several teenagers were looking into the distance when someone suddenly exclaimed.

These young people are probably about ten years old. If they were in the mountains and forests, ten-year-olds might have to hunt and fight, but after they came to the Central Plains, they lived a wealthy life, but they didn't need to fight when they were ten! When the Jurchen army evacuated from Taiyuan City, they did not take them.

"Look at their dress, it's not good, it's Song Jun!"

"Ah! It's really Song Jun, how did they come here? What should I do?"

"Quickly escape from here!"

There were expressions of horror on the faces of these Jurchen teenagers, and they hurried towards the city of Taiyuan. Originally, there were still some Jurchen women standing on the wall. At this moment, these women also hurriedly descended from the wall and ran towards their home.

The entire Taiyuan city fell into chaos in an instant, and there were crying voices everywhere!

Qu Duan led an army of 100,000 to five miles outside of Taiyuan City, where Qu Duan stopped.

Most of the surrounding is infantry, only Qu Duan and other generals are riding on the horse.

Looking at Taiyuan City in the distance, Qu Duan was excited.

He had been to Taiyuan City ten years ago, but Taiyuan City was much more magnificent and prosperous than it is now! This is the first city in Hedong, where people come and go, and commerce is extremely developed! The strong walls here are also rare in ancient and modern times, so it can resist Jurchen! Only after several wars, the city walls of Taiyuan have become dilapidated, and the population of Taiyuan City has been reduced by more than half. Now Taiyuan City gives people a sense of decline!

"Taiyuan City! This is the three northern towns of our Great Song Dynasty. The Jurchens first occupied this place, and then they invaded the Central Plains and occupied Kaifeng! Now we have retaken Taiyuan City! The Jurchen army has left here, We can be regarded as recovering Hedong!" Qu Duan felt tears in his eyes.

"Yeah! Let's recover Hedong!" Yu Yunwen followed Qu Duan, excited at the moment.

Yu Yunwen came to Guanshan to deal with the Jiangnan army. After almost three months, most of the rebel army has been broken up, and hundreds of thousands of people have moved towards their hometown and are ready to return to their hometown! As for Han Shizhong, Zhang Jun, Wang Yan, Zong Ying and others, they led more than one hundred thousand troops to Xixia, ready to help defend the Datong belt! This time, Yu Yunwen escorted the army food and stayed in the Qu Duan army by the way.

"Hundreds of years ago, Tang Gaozu and Tang Taizong set up troops here and occupied the world! During the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, this was also the capital of the Later Han Dynasty! There have been countless heroes here, and Yang Wudi, Hu Yanzan and others have defended here! The descendants were not filial and lost Taiyuan, but now we have it back!" Qu Quduan laughed.

The surrounding soldiers are constantly moving forward, their faces also have excited expressions, and their mood is also extremely excited!

For any country and any nation, being able to regain lost land is a major event that can uplift the hearts and minds of the entire country and the nation. The soldiers' mood can be imagined.

"There has been war here, the people have suffered heavy casualties, and the economy has declined. It is difficult to recover." Qu Duan suppressed the excitement in his heart for a long time.

"It won't be difficult! This is in the middle of the Hedong, extending in all directions. In the future, there will even be contact with the grassland. A large number of merchants will flood here. After a long time, this place will recover again! In fact, it has gone through this ordeal. After that, our Song Dynasty will surpass the past! In the past, our Song Dynasty only emphasized culture and education, not martial arts. Although our civilization was prosperous, it was bullied by foreigners. But now, we pay equal attention to both civil and military. We are no longer introverted, but Dare to fight, dare to open up, plus our hundreds of millions of people, thousands of years of heritage, we are far better than the past! The sword is sharpened, the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold, after the war, our previous weaknesses are in the war. The whole nation will truly take off!" Yu Yunwen laughed.

"Yes! Go, enter Taiyuan! I want to see what the Jurchen has made here, and how to recover in the future!" Qu Weiwei said.

"Shall we chase Jurchen right away?" a general next to him asked.

"No, Jurchen still has an army of 200,000, and they are all cavalry! We have only 150,000, all infantry. On the plains, we are not their opponents! Even with the 100,000 army from Datong and Yanmen! , We are not their opponents either! Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Loushi are all famous Jurchen generals, and they are also very capable of using troops. They are better than Wanyanchang, Jin Wushu and others. Now we only need to force them to Hebei, when the time comes They have become real turtles in the urn! Now there is no need to pursue them!" Yu Yunwen said.

Although Yu Yunwen was a literati, he was good at resourcefulness. Although he was in charge of logistics on the surface, in fact the entire staff headquarters was under his control, and even Qu Duan often followed his ideas.

"Yes, we don't have to rush to chase! When the situation in Hedong is stable, we will enter Hebei from Taihang Mountain! There are also Wang Gui, Fu Xuan and others in Taihang Mountain. They will harass Jurchen in Taihang Mountain, and Jurchen will not be comfortable!" Qu Duandao.

Qu Duan, Yu Yunwen and others moved forward, and soon they came to the gate of Taiyuan City. When they arrived here, their hearts were even more excited.

From here, they entered Taiyuan City and came to the city wall.

Inside and outside of Taiyuan City, countless soldiers knelt down involuntarily at this moment, tears in their eyes.

Seeing such a scene, Qu Duan and Yu Yunwen were also deeply moved. Since the Jurchen invasion, countless people have been looking forward to regaining the lost soil. Now this day has finally arrived!

"General, there are still a lot of Jurchen family members in the city, how do you deal with these Jurchen family members?" A general leader ran over and said.

"It's just some old and weak women and children, just be optimistic about them! Of course, if someone resists, kill them!" Qu Duan thought for a while and said.

"The houses and courtyards they occupy do not belong to them. Drive them out! Also, the gold and silver money do not belong to them, deprive them of their property!" Yu Yunwen said.

Wanyan Lou believed that the Han people were "cowardly" and did not dare to kill the Jurchen family members. Qu Duan and Yu Yunwen did not order the killing of the Jurchen family members. They did not dare, but did not want to! This is not cowardice, but benevolence. Only when there is kindness can tolerance, and only when tolerance is the Chinese civilization that will never extinguish for thousands of years, this is something that foreign barbarians like Wanyan Loushi will never understand.

Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Lou's army led the army to the east, and the number of soldiers and horses gathered along the way increased. By the time they were near Niangziguan, their number of soldiers and horses had reached 180,000. The vast majority of Jurchens in Hedong The soldiers came here.

There are endless mountains in front. There is the famous Taihang Mountain on the North China Plain. It cuts off Hedong and Hebei, and straddles Yanyun, Henan and other places. It is the largest mountain range in the Central Plains.

In front is the continuous Great Wall, here is a section of the inner Great Wall of the Central Plains, a huge Guancheng stands there, this is Niangziguan!

There are countless attics, arrow towers, and gates in Niangziguan. It is called the "Ninth Pass of the Great Wall of China", and it is the only way to enter Hebei from Hedong.

"Fortunately, this Niangziguan is still under our control, otherwise it will be difficult even if we want to enter Hebei!" Wan Yan Zongwang pointed forward with his riding whip.

"Yes! Niangziguan is still under our control! The Han people are so ridiculous that they call this Guancheng the'Niangziguan'!" Wanyan Loushi laughed.

"Woliyan, it seems that you don't know the origin of this Niangziguan! At the beginning, Li Yuan was cavalry from Taiyuan, and there was Dou Jiande's army in Hebei! Li Yuan went south, occupied the entire Hedong, and then entered Guanshan, where he wanted to establish an emperor! The army of Hebei tried to invade Hedong. The Niangzi Pass was still called Weize Pass. Li Yuan's third female Princess Pingyang led tens of thousands of troops to station at Niangzi Pass, making it difficult for Hebei soldiers and horses to enter Hedong! This Niangzi Pass was not as majestic as that day. , She built countless buildings here, and this is the size it is today! After she died, she was buried according to military rites, which is very different from ordinary princesses! Therefore, this place was called Niangziguan." Wanyan Zong Wang said.

"So, I thought that the Han women are very incompetent, but they are just about chastity. It turns out that there are also women who dare to lead soldiers in battle." Wanyan Lou Shi said in surprise.

"Li Yuan's ability to become the emperor is also inseparable from the efforts of his children. If we Jurchens want to occupy the world, it also requires everyone to work hard and forge ahead! After we defeated the Central Plains, the children only know how to enjoy the blessings and are unwilling to continue to charge. , Kill the enemy, this is the reason for our failure!" Wan Yan Zong said.

Wanyan Loushi nodded!

"When I arrive in Hebei, I can unite with Liu Yu's hundreds of thousands of troops to rule countless lowly Han people. At that time, all of us will work hard and forge ahead. It will not be impossible to counterattack the Central Plains again in the future! The Han people will still look like before. Our Jurchens have become weak and small, so they can win! In the future, we will become stronger again. They are not our opponents and will be enslaved by us again!" Wan Yanzong said.

"Yes! Our Jurchens are the most powerful race in the sky and underground. We can conquer the powerful Khitans and the Hans too!" Wan Yanlou said in the room.

"As long as you don't lose your confidence, that's good! Go, cross the Niangzi Pass and head to Taihang Mountain! Sooner or later, I will be back after Yan Zongwang!" Wan Yan Zongwang laughed.

He led thousands of soldiers through the Niangzi Pass without looking back, and the more than 100,000 troops behind them also passed through the Niangzi Pass and headed towards Taihang Mountain.
