Fu Song

Chapter 194 Want to seek justice, go to Beijing

Qin Min never thought that he would survive.

When he cut the rope of the pontoon bridge, he was determined to die with the enemy. At such a moment, it is also a good thing to be able to drag his enemy to die together.

In such a turbulent river, both he and his opponent were wearing heavy armor weighing tens of kilograms, and the chance of surviving the fall into the river was extremely low.

He didn't expect that he could survive.

Lying on the sand with his back facing the sky, the river flows slowly under his body, what he can see in his vision is the blue sky, the white clouds, and the birds flapping their wings across the sky, and the clear and crisp calls make him feel Qin Min confirmed that this was not a dream.

When he came back to his senses, bursts of pain came from all over his body immediately, and he couldn't help moaning.

Holding the wet sand with both hands, Qin Min sat up slowly. At this moment, he finally woke up.

He finally remembered some things after falling into the water.

Survival is a human instinct.

After he fell into the water, he, who was carrying dozens of kilograms of heavy armor on his body, naturally fell to the bottom of the river like a stone without any surprise.He knew very well that there would be no reason for not taking off the heavy armor.

Therefore, he, who fell into the river, held his breath, pulled out the small knife at his waist, and tried his best to cut off the ties of the armor on his body. Every time a piece of armor was removed, the possibility of his survival would increase a little.

Later, he passed out completely.

Now that he woke up, he saw his whole body, except for the right arm holding the knife, the rest of the armor on his body had disappeared.

If not, he would not have had the chance to open his eyes.

Standing up reluctantly, he looked at the place carefully. This is a backwater bay, and he is not the only one lying on the river beach here, there are more than a dozen people, including his companions and Jurchens.

Qin Min held the short knife in his hand and walked towards those people who didn't know whether they were alive or dead.

Not a single person is left alive.

Although these people also tried their best to untie their armor when they fell into the water, they still did not survive in the end.

Qin Min stumbled towards the river bank.

Since God didn't let him die, he must cherish his life.For the current position, when he climbed to the river bank, he already knew in his heart that he had followed his father to fight and live on this border for many years.

It's just that now, this place, I'm afraid it has become an occupied area by the Liao people.

He must get out of here immediately.

The injuries on the body must also be treated in a timely manner, otherwise, if they deteriorate, it will be fatal.

When night fell, Qin Min appeared in a forest. He found a big tree that was thick enough to embrace him. Without much hesitation, he used the short knife in his hand to dig down vigorously.

After a while, the short knife touched something with a ding, and Qin Min's spirit was lifted. Even though he was about to be exhausted, he still mustered up the last of his strength and dug down vigorously.

A box was dug out of the soil.

Open the box, there are some gold sore medicines, some food, short crossbows and other things inside.

This was buried by the frontier scouts in the past.

Every team of scouts will have their own material storage points, because they often encounter the enemy, and sometimes they will inevitably run out of water. If they can arrange some such material relief points in advance, they may be able to save their lives at critical times .

Of course Qin Min knew about these places.

It was also his luck that after falling into the water, the place where he got up alive was actually the defense force of their Xin'an Army in the past.

If he changed the defense zone, he really couldn't find such a place.

The gold sore medicine in the army is naturally excellent.After dressing himself up for the wound and taking some internal medicine, Qin Min felt refreshed. He leaned against the big tree, chewing the jerky that was as hard as a stone out of the box, thinking Then what to do next.

There is no doubt that, of course, we must try to find Da Song's army.

But this is not an easy task. Now the area he is in has been occupied by the Liao people.In just half a day today, Qin Min encountered several Liao troops, and almost showed his signs.

Da Song's army must have suffered a defeat, but Qin Min didn't know how far they lost.

Let's heal the injury first.

When the action is free, go to Xiongzhou.Before he set off, his father had said that he would gather several troops to defend Xiongzhou and keep Hejian Mansion.With the fighting power of these frontier armies, as long as they gather together, Xiongzhou cannot be conquered in a short time.

For this point, Qin Min has considerable confidence.

They have been in the frontier for many years, and they have also fought against the Liao people for many years. They know the combat effectiveness of both sides. With the defense of Xiongzhou and the elite Song army of over [-], it is impossible for the Liao people to defeat them.

They are not the group of idiots guarding Guiyi City.

Thinking of Guiyi City, Qin Min was annoyed for a while. Five thousand people defended such a military city for a day. They are really a bunch of trash.

The Beijing army is a bunch of trash.

Qin Min cursed harshly.

More than ten days later, Qin Min appeared outside the city of Xiongzhou. In the night, his silhouette was roughly outlined by the wind lanterns on the city of Xiongzhou, but the flags of the Liao people were flying on the city. up.

Qin Min fell to the ground.

"General, let's go, this place is too close to the enemy!" A man beside him whispered.

At this moment, Qin Min was no longer alone. He was surrounded by eight or nine men who could be seen as members of the army. At this moment, everyone's eyes were full of disappointment.

These days, Qin Min finally found some companions who were scattered.

"How could Xiongzhou be lost? If Xiongzhou is lost, Hejian Mansion may not be able to hold on." Qin Min murmured.

"General, let's go to Hejian Mansion. If we want to control them, they will definitely retreat to Hejian Mansion." Another person said.

Qin Min nodded, he couldn't figure out why he lost Xiongzhou?Are the Liao people so strong now?Before he could, he hadn't realized this at all.

Over the past few years, he felt that the Liao people were getting weaker every year.

Liao troops, transport teams, scouts, Qin Min and his party were everywhere, and they could only go out at night. After a few days, Qin Min finally figured out the reason why Xiongzhou was lost.

He found some soldiers of the Xin'an Army who had been dispersed, and one of them was in charge. Although his rank was very low, he was still very clear about the general situation of the army.

The strategy planned by his father Qin Kuan for the four armies to join together to guard Xiongzhou, guard the main roads, and guard Hejian was never implemented.

"We have met Yeluzhen's main force!" The abbot couldn't suppress his grief, "There are tens of thousands of Liao troops, and the cavalry alone exceeds [-]."

Qin Min remained silent.The Xin'an Army only had [-] people in total, and they also took away [-] people from two battalions. Under such circumstances, my father launched a counterattack. There will not be more than [-] people, and the combat effectiveness of the Xiang army is still much worse than that of the regular army.

And Yeluzhen, that is a formidable opponent.

"We came back in a big defeat." Yazheng said: "Then, Xiongzhou couldn't hold it any longer. After our third battalion was in charge, we led the main force to retreat to Hejianfu. After the city was destroyed, the third battalion was wiped out. I don't know what's going on behind the scenes!"

For Qin Min, the loss of Xiongzhou and the heavy defeat of the Xin'an Army were just the beginning of a nightmare.

The four frontier armies of Xin'an Army, Guangxin Army, Ansu Army, and Baoding Army all suffered complete defeats in this counterattack. Hejian Mansion has been occupied, and Yelujun from the other route has already occupied Zhending Mansion. The two armies are like a pair of iron pliers. The target is naturally the capital of Hebei Road, Daming Mansion.

Almost half of the entire Hebei Road has been lost.

But Qin Min didn't care about all of this anymore.

Another blow nearly knocked him out of his mind.

His father, Qin Kuan, and Zheng Yu, who was in charge of the Ansu Army, were imprisoned by Cui Ang, the conciliator of Hebei Road, who accused them of disobeying military orders and acting without authorization, which led to the military defeat of Hebei.

Two well-known frontier generals who were feared by the Liao people were actually beheaded by Cui Ang, the comforter of Hebei Road, and their heads are still hanging on the city wall of Daming Mansion.

The commanders of the Guangxin Army and Baoding Army were killed in battle, the commanders of the Xin'an Army and Ansu Army were beheaded by Cui Ang, and the four famous frontier armies on the east line of Hebei Road disappeared in smoke.

"Cui Ang commanded indiscriminately, and all the ministries fought on their own. In the end, they were defeated by the Liao people with their superior forces. Afterwards, Cui Ang was entrusted to the front-line generals. Now he is the first to act first, beheading Qin Tongzhi and Zheng Tongzhi. There is no chance to even argue!" Qin Min almost gritted his teeth as Zhou He, his father's aide, burst into tears and recounted the drastic changes during this period of time.

"Cui Ang is so rebellious, is the court blind?" Qin Min asked angrily.

Zhou He shook his head and said: "The latest order from the imperial court has also arrived. Xia Jie, the magistrate of Daming Mansion, will be the pacifier of the Hebei Road. Now Xia Jie is gathering all kinds of troops to guard the Daming Mansion. I heard that the reinforcements from Hedong and Jingji East and West Roads are also on their way. Come on, Zhang Chao and Zhang Shuai are also rushing day and night to Daming Mansion."

"Where's Cui Ang? Is he in prison?" Qin Min asked.

Zhou He shook his head: "Cui Ang is no longer the peace envoy of the Hebei Road, but he is now the envoy of the peace talks with the Liao people. The court did not even think about a full-scale war with the Liao people, but was preparing for peace talks."

Qin Min's hands trembled slightly: "So, this person won't be held accountable at all?"

"It doesn't look like it will." Zhou He said with tears: "Cui Ang is a privy secretary of the Western Mansion and a bachelor. Zheng Tongzhi and Qin Tongzhi are just two generals. Even if the court knows that they have been wronged, how can they avenge them? ? Such a thing has never happened before? Those high officials in the court all vented their anger through one nostril!"

Panting heavily, Qin Min punched the ground heavily: "No, there is still someone who can uphold justice for us, let's go find him."

"Who is the Major General talking about?" Zhou He asked: "Cui Ang is a Privy Councilor of the Western Mansion, unless someone with a higher status than him, what can he do?"

"Mr. Zhou, have you forgotten who was the last comfort envoy of Hebei Road?"

"King Jing!" Zhou He exclaimed.

"That's right, now that Hebei Road has become like this, King Jing can't be heartbroken? This is his painstaking effort for many years!" Qin Min said with red eyes: "Cui Ang can turn black and white, but the orders he gave are all to be defeated. Yes, these things are in the eyes of King Jing. King Jing, who is familiar with military affairs, can naturally see the problems at a glance. Let's go to Beijing and go to King Jing to complain. I don't believe that King Jing will watch his old subordinates suffer. This innocent injustice!"

"Yes, go find the lord!" The remaining soldiers of the Xin'an Army all shouted.

Zhou He nodded: "If you want to avenge the ruling, I'm afraid this is the only way. Major General, do you want to contact the brothers from the Ansu Army and the Guangxin Army and Baoding Army? There are more people and strength, let's find more People co-sign, I think King Jing will pay more attention to it!"

Qin Min nodded and said: "Let's do it like this! Let's go to Bianliang to find King Jing. If King Jing doesn't care, we will find a way to avenge ourselves! Cui Ang, a despicable villain, if the court can't punish him, then let him We will handle it. He will definitely not be able to stay in Hebei, and he will go back to Bianliang next, and then we will slaughter him in Bianliang to avenge the death of thousands of brothers."

"Just do it."

"We must kill this bastard!"

Amidst the uproar, Qin Min said to Zhou He: "Sir, work harder. First, we need to contact the surviving brothers of the other armies. They must be reliable and have nothing to do with it. In addition, we need to trouble you, sir, to give us some ideas on how to go safely. Bianliang."

"Okay." Zhou He nodded vigorously: "Now all places are supporting Hebei Road. The Forbidden Army, Xiang Army, and civilian husbands are all young and strong. It is not difficult to get some identities. When the time comes, we will divide them in installments. The approved ones go to Bianliang. Isn’t the Dingwu Army where they are now? We have a lot of contacts with them in the past, and we can contact them when the time comes. They have been going to Bianliang for a long time, and then we can ask them to find some places to stay. "

"Thank you Mr., I'm going to the Daming Mansion to see my father." Qin Min choked up and said, "I won't avenge this revenge, I swear I won't be a human being."

Outside the Daming Mansion, dozens of cavalry came galloping. With a groan, the galloping cavalry stopped, and the leading general raised his head and looked at the city wall.

On both sides of the city wall, dozens of wooden cages were lined up, and each cage contained a head. After a long time, these heads looked extremely hideous, and countless mosquitoes surrounded them.The two highest hangs are the Xin'an Army controlling Qin Kuan and the Ansu Army controlling Zheng Yu.

"Taiwei!" A knight behind him shouted forward on his horse.

Zhang Chao sighed, he also had a relationship with Qin Kuan and Zheng Yu once, they were two very simple generals, but now they died like this, it really hurts people's heart.
