Rebirth: Overthrow Song Dynasty

Chapter 530: Learned the news

Li Xianzhong had 100,000 soldiers and horses, and only 20,000 soldiers and horses remained here to guard the almost unarmed Khitan people. He personally led the remaining 80,000 soldiers and horses to escape the Khitan army.

There was a lot of snow, and the grassland was white, and I couldn't see anything clearly.

When it was noon, Li Xianzhong and Li Yanxian met, and smiles appeared on their faces.

"Xianzhong, we have won this battle! Last night, more than 20,000 Khitans fled, and now they have basically been caught up by us, and almost all have been wiped out by us!" Li Yanxian said.

"We haven't found Yelu Dashi!" Li Xianzhong said.

"We have so many soldiers and horses, we will find him sooner or later!" Li Yanxian said.

At this moment, several cavalrymen from the north came towards here, and after they informed them, they came to Li Xianzhong and Li Yanxian.

"Two generals, we found the bodies of many horses in the north!" a cavalry said.

"The corpse of the horse? How many are there? What is going on?" Li Xianzhong said in surprise.

"It seems that there are two or three thousand war horses! But the corpses of those war horses are incomplete, some only have horse heads, and some have horse legs! Those war horses are all Khitan war horses, and there are some leftover items from the Khitan people around them. "The cavalry said.

"Go, let me take a look! Yanxian, you continue to look for the Yelu Dashi on the grassland!" Li Xianzhong said.

At the moment Li Xianzhong led thousands of cavalry soldiers towards the north. After walking for more than half an hour, they finally came to the place where the dead war horse was.

"This is left by the Khitan people, and there are Khitan characters on these saddles!" Li Xianzhong jumped off the horse, and he checked it carefully for a while, said.

"Who killed these Khitan war horses?" a school lieutenant asked.

"This grassland is extremely desolate, and no one else has come! Besides, there are only the corpses of war horses here, not a human body. It seems that there has been no battle here! If I am not mistaken, the Khitans killed them. Their horse!" Li Xianzhong said.

"Why did the Khitan people kill their warhorses?" Astonished expressions appeared on the faces of the surrounding soldiers, the captain said again.

"They are for food! These horse meat can be eaten by them! No, they are likely to go east and into the mountains!" Li Xianzhong said.

"Ah!" Li Xianzhong finished speaking, and the soldiers around couldn't help but exclaim.

"Quick! Look around immediately! It is impossible for ordinary Khitan people to be so cruel, only Yelu Dashi can make such a decision!" Li Xianzhong immediately issued an order.

At the moment, his cavalry was heading in all directions, but most of them were heading towards the mountains to the east, looking for the whereabouts of the Yelu Dashi.

After more than an hour, more than 40,000 Song troops came here, looking for the Yelu Dashi in this area.

It wasn't until late that night that they found the traces of the Khitan people at the location of the mountain pass to the east!

Some shrubs were broken off in the mountain pass. Walking along here, there are constant traces of broken vegetation. Everything proves that someone has entered here, and the time of occurrence is today!

"It must be the Yelu Dashi! He took two or three thousand Khitan people into the mountains, and then wanted to go from the mountains to Liaodong!" Li Xianzhong said.

"Xianzhong, we will continue to chase them!" Li Yanxian had already arrived, said.

"Send someone to spread the news of Yelu Dashi's escape to Zhongjing! I personally led my troops into the mountains to find Yelu Dashi!" Li Xianzhong said.

The night was dark, and it was dangerous to enter the mountain now, but Li Xianzhong still entered it with 10,000 soldiers and horses! He walked in the forefront, exploring the way himself!

Occasionally, traces of the Khitan people can be seen on the road, but because of the snow, many traces have been hidden.

About an hour after leaving, there was a screaming sound from behind. Several soldiers fell into the valley, and Li Xianzhong couldn't help but hesitate.

In the middle of the night, there were constant sacrifices of soldiers, and Li Xianzhong had to stop temporarily.

"Yelü Dashi entering the deep mountains may not be able to get out! This is just the edge of the mountains and it is so dangerous. Going deep into it, even the martial arts may die! No matter, we can't send all the troops into the mountains. , This sacrifice is too great, and he may not be able to find him! After dawn tomorrow, send an elite team of thousands of people to go deep into it to find the Yelu Dashi!" Li Xianzhong secretly said.

Once the snow on the grassland has fallen, it is difficult to stop in a short time.

In Zhongjing City, the snow here has been snowing for six or seven days, and now it has reached the 12th of November, and it has been several days since the last great war.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and the poor people in Zhongjing City can no longer hide in their homes.

However, this winter is different from the winter of previous years. Many poor people have expressions of joy on their faces.

Since the Song Army defeated Jurchen, supplies have been continuously delivered here, and now many people have been given food at their homes. The amount of these food is not very large, but if you save food, you can last for at least half a month! Moreover, the Emperor Song Dynasty has promised that grain will be delivered soon! In addition to food, they also received a lot of worn-out clothing and bedding, and the soldiers of the Song Army actually helped ordinary poor people to repair their houses, so they no longer need to suffer from freezing.

Da Song's Propaganda Department has also entered here. In just one month, the situation in Zhongjing City has shown a stable trend!

In fact, it is not only Zhongjing City, but also in more than ten states and counties around Zhongjing, the situation has gradually stabilized.

The people of all ethnic groups here suffer too much. For them, as long as they are given a little favor, they will treat each other as the savior! Now the army of the Song Dynasty and the emperor are undoubtedly their saviors in their hearts!

In the palace of Zhongjing, in the Palace of Qinzheng, this place has changed its appearance.

At this moment, there is a fire burning here, warmth is warm, and there are guards at the door and inside of the palace.

Zhao Chen is sitting on the throne at this moment, Yu Yunwen, Qu Duan and others are all sitting down, and suddenly Zhahusi is also sitting down under the Mongolian Kreed Khan.

Suddenly, Zhahusi raised his head to look at Zhao Chen from time to time, with a hesitant look on his face.

"Khan, do you have anything to say?" Zhao Chen looked at him abruptly and smiled.

"Your Majesty, I don't know when you can let us go back? Now that the snow is so big, my people may not be able to get through this winter, they need help from men!" Suddenly Zhahu thought.

"We've been discussing this issue these days! I want to ask you first, will you continue to be right with us, Da Song?" Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, how dare we continue to do right with Song Dynasty? Don't worry, after we return to the grassland, we will always be courtiers of Song Dynasty." Suddenly Zhahusi smiled bitterly.

"Very good! After you sign this agreement, you can leave Zhongjing tomorrow and return to your grassland!" Zhao Chen said.

"Agreement?" Zhahusi suddenly looked at Zhao Chen with some confusion.

"The agreement is here!" Qu Duan stood up and smiled.

He took an agreement in front of Suddenly Zhahusi, and it was written in Han and Khitan bi-ethnic characters! The reason why there is Khitan script is because the Mongolian people on the grassland also use Khitan script so that they can understand it.

"There are only four items in this agreement. First, from now on, your Kled tribe will be our Song’s subject. The Klie tribe’s great khan must accept our Da Song’s canonization! In the future, after you die, your My son also accepts our canonization. Without our canonization, no one can become a profuse. Secondly, the leaders of the tribes of your Creed tribe must leave their underage children in the Songdu City and accept me in my Songdu City. The cultural education of the Han people cannot return to the grassland until they reach adulthood. Thirdly, your Klein tribe must accept the transfer of our court. If we want to attack the rest of the grassland tribes, you must fight with us. Fourthly, you must give them every year. We provide a certain number of war horses, cattle and sheep. The specific number will be told by the staff headquarters, and the number may vary from year to year. Of course, we will not ask for your things in vain. We use money or materials from the Central Plains. Come change." Qu Duan said in the sidelines.

Suddenly, a struggling expression appeared on Zhahusi's face.

"Khan, think about the clansmen on the grassland. When will you hesitate? Moreover, this time the number of men in your Cray tribe has lost a great deal. We will send tens of thousands of militiamen to follow you northward, and we will give you Bring the supplies for the winter to help you tide over the difficulties." Qu Duan said.

"Okay! I signed this agreement!" Suddenly Zhahusi gritted his teeth and finally agreed.

A faint smile appeared on Zhao Chen's face above.

Regarding the Mongolian grasslands, the eyes of the Military Aircraft Department, the General Staff Headquarters, and Zhao Chen himself have not really been put there. Now they have just laid down Shangjing and Zhongjing. Liaodong is still under the control of the Jurchens. Under such circumstances, their primary goal is still to stabilize the north and regain Liaodong. Even the Goryeo plan is before the Mongolian plan. It is possible to go to the Mongolian grasslands. Under such circumstances, they can only temporarily subdue and win over the various Mongolian ministries, and then take the means of gentleness.

This time, 300,000 militiamen will follow the army northward, and then 50,000 militiamen will follow the Klein's troops into the grassland! Qu Duan has already completed the work of these 50,000 militias. After the Krem's war, the number of men has been greatly reduced, while the number of women is extremely large. Qu Duan encourages these militia fighters to enter the grassland and marry Mongolian women so that they can truly control. Kled Department.

However, these are just small tricks, and it is still not the time to actually enter the Mongolian grasslands.

Everyone was discussing matters in the Qinzheng Hall, and there was a voice of reporting from outside. After a while, an officer from the staff headquarters walked in from outside.

"Your Majesty, we just got the military intelligence report from the two generals Yue Fei and Li Xianzhong!" said the officer.

"Hurry up!" Zhao Chen said immediately.

Qu Duan, Yu Yunwen and even Zha Husi and others suddenly stopped talking and listened to the officer's report.

"Your Majesty, in the Wugu and Dilie grasslands, my 200,000 fine horses surrounded the Qidan army, and the Qidan army was annihilated. Only 3,000 people fled!"

"Great!" Zhao Chen's face showed an expression of excitement.

In this way, there are no more enemies in Shangjing and Zhongjing, the situation in the north has been set, and only the enemies of Liaodong are left!

"It's just that Yelu Dashi ran away, and I still haven't chased Yelu Dashi!" said the officer.

Oh!

Zhao Chen, Qu Duan, Yu Yunwen and others frowned.
