The night was deep. At this moment, in the Gaotang State area of ​​southern Texas, an army was walking forward.

The size of this army is extremely large, and the team stretches for more than ten miles.

They walked among the most desolate mountains.

There are weeds everywhere, and thorns can occasionally be encountered.

Walking here, there were blood stains on their bodies and legs, but no soldier shouted, they just strode forward.

There are countless reconnaissance soldiers in front of the team. They will detect the situation ahead. Once they encounter villages or small towns, they will immediately bypass them.

But it was really desolate here, and all night, they didn't encounter a village, a small town, or a single figure.

"We have left from the north of Gaotangzhou! Moving forward, in at most two days, we will be able to come to Yucheng! We have received news that Wanyan Zongwang’s army has been dispatched, and they should also be heading towards Yucheng. Go forward! Li Xianzhong also has an army heading towards Yucheng! In addition, Zhang Xian of the Forbidden Army will also lead the cavalry towards there, and they will continue to attack the Jurchen army and send news to us!" One The middle-aged general walked forward and said aside.

Like ordinary soldiers, he also has blood stains on his legs and body at this moment. These are all caused by thorns, but the affection on his face is indifferent, and he doesn't care about it. If it were six years ago, he would definitely not bear such an ascetic march. But now, he thinks these are very common things.

There were a few people following him, but these few people were dressed up, not in the army.

"General Zhao, there is a marshland ahead! There is a desolate place, no one will find us, and from there to Yucheng, the road will be much shorter, but there are many quagmire, once the soldiers are trapped, it is difficult to get out! We want Don't take a detour?" said a character in the world.

"No! Just go from here! We have to rush to Yucheng in the shortest possible time. We must choose the nearest route! Even if it is dangerous, we will not hesitate! In order to wipe out Jurchen, temporary sacrifice is inevitable." The middle-aged general said.

The figures in the rivers and lakes all nodded, and their faces all had expressions of admiration.

Coming here from the Daming Mansion all the way, this army hardly had any rest and was always on the way. They all suspected that the soldiers' bodies were beaten with iron! They had only heard of the tyranny of the Guanshan army before, but now they really feel this tyranny!

With iron-like discipline and iron-like will, such an army of one hundred thousand people is enough to defeat an enemy several times the number of them! They can imagine that on the battlefield, this army will never retreat, it will only move forward. If the front is dead, the back will rush up! Facing such an army, the Jurchens may not be their opponents!

The army in front of us is the Jingyuan army led by Zhao Zhe!

When the 150,000 Jingyuan Army entered Hebei and took down Handan, Daming Mansion and other places, Zhao Zhe left 50,000 troops to garrison these places, and he personally led the 100,000 troops to bypass Bozhou, Gaotang Prefecture and other places, directly Toward the direction of Dezhou, Qizhou and other places.

Their 100,000 army marched in the wild, choosing the most remote place every day, either in the barren hills or in the grassland, and today they are passing through the swamp.

The soldiers hadn't rested for more than three days, and they still gritted their teeth and walked forward.

The marshland in front was very difficult to navigate, and soldiers were constantly stuck in the quagmire along the way.

Once in the quagmire, it is extremely difficult to get out. Soldiers nearby **** the soldiers who had fallen into the quagmire with ropes and tried to drag them out, but the suction force of the quagmire was too great. In the end, the rope was broken and the soldiers were still not pulled out. It often takes half an hour to rescue a soldier.

It's just that the army has to move forward, and the task it shoulders is extremely important, and it is even related to the Central Plains pattern. Under such circumstances, the army kept moving, but left more than a thousand people to rescue the soldiers who fell into the quagmire.

In the end, less than half of the soldiers could be rescued, and thousands of soldiers died in the swamp.

It was not until the afternoon that they came out of the swamp.

At this time they entered a forest.

In this era, the ecological environment is far better than that of later generations. Even in the North China Plain, there are many forests.

The soldiers drove through the forest, where there were too many weeds, and occasionally they would run into deep pits.

They stopped until late at night.

One hundred thousand army began to rest here!

In late autumn, the weather was already cold, and they leaned against each other.

Just lying on the cold ground, they started to fall asleep.

The march these days has been too exhausting, and has reached the limit of the soldiers' endurance.

Zhao Zhe was also extremely tired, but he still hadn't rested.

A map was placed in front of him. The staff of the Jingyuan Army and the military headquarters were all beside him. The intelligence personnel were reporting on the current intelligence in the northern Dezhou, Yucheng, Qizhou and other places. Zhao Zhe and the staff were still facing Research on the map.

An hour later, they lay down to rest.

This time, the soldiers got up and continued on their way until the sky was light.

After a one-night rest, although their physical strength was not fully recovered, they felt much better mentally.

They were still driving in the wild. If they were thirsty, they would drink a little water in the skin. If they were hungry, they would eat a bite of pancakes or fried noodles.

Some people have lame feet, and they will be abandoned in the local area, and only dry food and clean water with a small amount of food will remain by their side.

This is an extremely difficult march, and only a real iron army can complete such a march! Even the current Jurchen army can never do this!

According to legend, Yucheng was the place where Dayu once governed the Yellow River.

It is located at the junction of Hebei and Shandong.

Because of the Jurchen invasion, the entire Central Plains was incomparably broken, and so was Yucheng.

There used to be many villages and towns around Yucheng, but now these villages and towns have become deserted, and no one lives in them.

There were originally more than 70,000 people in Yucheng, but now there are only 30,000 people. The remaining people either died under the sword of Jurchens or starved to death because of the harsh environment.

Now there are 10,000 soldiers and horses stationed here, and the general is Liu Lin, the son of Liu Yu.

The night was dark, and Liu Lin's mansion was still singing and dancing.

Since he came here, he has been like this every day.

Liu Yu himself is no small matter, otherwise he would not be valued by the Jurchens and become the leader of the pseudo army, but his son is a standard dude and has no skills at all. Yucheng was sandwiched between Dezhou and Qizhou and was relatively safe, so Liu Yu let him be stationed here.

Finally, the singing and dancing in the mansion stopped, Liu Lin yawned and took a few concubines towards the back.

At this moment, a middle-aged literati came towards here.

"Master Liu, why are you here so late?" Liu Lin frowned.

"Master, Jurchen is coming soon!" Master Liu said.

"The Jurchens are coming?" Liu Lin was taken aback, and then hurriedly asked: "What are you saying is true?"

"The Jurchens have come to Hebei from Hedong! They have an army of 200,000! After they heard that the master was trapped, they have led troops and horses to Shandong to save the master!"

"Haha! That's great! After the Jurchens arrived, we are considered saved! These **** Song Jun, they will all die in Shandong now!" Liu Lin laughed.

"Yes! Jurchen is invincible, as long as 10,000 people can sweep the world, not to mention the arrival of an army of 200,000 Jurchens! Song Army has only one dead end!" Liu Shiye also laughed.

"By the way, the Jurchens are here, let's prepare well! There are still some treasures in my mansion, all of which are taken out and given to the Jurchens! Also, all kinds of meals should be prepared, and we will start preparing tomorrow. ! Also, all the beautiful women in the city should be dedicated to the Jurchens! The young master's wives and concubines can also be given to the Jurchens to enjoy!" Liu Lin said.

A concubine in his arms had already shown a frightened expression. Liu Lin curled his lips disdainfully when he saw it. In order to please Master Jurchen, what a little concubine is worth!

"Yes, the villain will do this tomorrow!" Master Liu said.

"You must be comfortable with the Jurchens! This world belongs to the Jurchens. In the future, we will live by the Jurchens!" Liu Lin said.

He was already very tired, but he was excited when he heard that the Jurchen was coming, and at the moment he found a few wives and concubines to seduce him, and it took him a long time to lie down.
