Quanzhen Little Daoist starts

Chapter 81
Guo Jing led [-] cavalry and ten days' worth of dry food, took advantage of nightfall, separated from the main force, and headed north!
In Qiu Zhiqing's impression, there were no cavalry in the Southern Song Dynasty, but in fact Meng Gong told Qiu Zhiqing proudly that there were 20 cavalry in the Southern Song Dynasty!

After bragging loudly, he told him in a low voice that in fact, during these period of time, he looked at the soldiers and horses from all over the place, and the entire Song Dynasty only had about [-] cavalry, and most of them were scattered among the various armies.

For example, Meng Gong's father used to have only [-] cavalry in the [-] army. Every time he fought a battle, he had to think twice and use it after confirming that the losses would be minimized. Therefore, Song's cavalry record looks very good.

Because there is no certainty of victory, the generals will not use cavalry. Of course, there are some generals who have defeated all the cavalry in their hands.

He was able to tell Qiu Zhiqing these things because he knew that Qiu Zhiqing was not a big mouth, otherwise he could boast that there were 30 elite cavalry in the Southern Song Dynasty!

For Meng Gong's expedition this time, the guard Ma Junsi, who originally claimed to have [-] cavalry, was selected by his leader to pick out only [-] relatively elite cavalry.

But even in this situation, Zhao Yun gritted his teeth under pressure and raised [-] troops for Meng Gong, which shows that it is not easy for everyone.

Guo Jing led the [-] fine horsemen assigned to him by Meng Gong, all the way northward, Guo Jing ordered his corporals to put away all the flags, and arrived at Yingtianfu, Nanjing, Song Dynasty, which is today's Shangqiu, on the fourth day.

And he planned to cross the Yellow River at night and go all the way to Weizhou (now in Xinxiang, which belonged to Weiguo in ancient times, so it was called Weizhou) along the Yellow River.

Because according to intelligence, Zhang Jin, the fish that slipped through the net under Qiu Zhiqing before, stationed troops here, and there was still a lot of food and grass in the city.

At this time, Wo Kuotai was preparing for the tribal meeting at the end of May. Don't ask Qiu Zhiqing why he knew, because Quanzhen Taoist, the leader of the Northern Tunnel Taoist sect, also participated in the meeting on behalf of the Taoist sect.

However, only Li Zhichang from Yanjing participated as the main representative. At the same time, Buddhism, shamanism, Tibetan Buddhism, and some Western sects were also invited.

The arrogant Wo Kuotai didn't take Song Jun seriously. Although he had received Zhang Jin's report, Wo Kuotai believed that Song Jun would not dare to move, even if they really dared to move, it would take at least seven months. Only in August can we enter the army.

And he didn't forget that when Tuo Lei competed with him for the position, Tachar and Subotai turned their backs on themselves and joined Tuo Lei's command...

For this reason, the Mongolian army in the Guanzhong area was also specially instructed to harass the defense line of Xichuan and Shukou, in order to frighten the Southern Song Dynasty so that they would not dare to act rashly.

And because of the alliance of the kings, Wo Kuotai did not send a new commander after Tachar's death, but planned to wait until after the meeting.

After all, each senior commander has his own tribe, and no one wants to be absent from this once-in-a-year spoils conference. Who knows what treatment his tribe will receive if he is not present?
That night, Guo Jing crossed the Yellow River north with [-] elite riders, and went straight to Xuncheng, the governor of Weizhou (now Yanjin, Xinxiang).Before nightfall, Qiu Zhiqing dressed lightly.

With only a ten-man team, a god arm crossbow, and thirty crossbow arrows, he left the main force and went to Xuncheng alone.

In fact, according to his original plan, after conveying the news, he would go back to Chongyang Palace in Zhongnanshan, concentrate on cultivating his own way, and hope that one day the Yang God will be consummated and successfully ascended.

But for some reason, what he saw along the way made it difficult for him to calm down. He felt that he had seen so many tragedies in the world, but he only saw the prosperity and prosperity in Lin'an.

With the injustice and regret in my heart, I returned to Zhongnan Mountain without doing anything. Even if I was really talented, would I really have nothing to worry about?He thought it would be impossible!

So when Zhao Yun asked him to help monitor Guo Jing and Guo Jing's supervisor, Qiu Zhiqing agreed without hesitation!Some things, if he doesn't do it, he is really not reconciled!

When the horse galloped across the uninhabited land of the Central Plains for hundreds of miles, Qiu Zhiqing understood that no matter whether this matter was accomplished or not, after this matter, the barriers that prevented him from returning to the mountains to practice Taoism had disappeared.

This is the outer world mentioned in "Zhuangzi·The Great Master", right?
Think about what Zhuangzi said, the talent of a sage can be outside the world in three days, outside things in seven days, and born outside in nine days!And thinking about myself, I have practiced Taoism for more than [-] years, and only then can I touch the threshold of the outer world.

If the Bu Liangyi mentioned by Zhuangzi is the talent of a sage, then I guess I am just a rotten wood!

Although thinking like this in my heart, how difficult it is to put it out of the world, not pretend to be things, and transcend life and death?
In the world of mortals, how do you tell me to see through this world of mortals...

Qiu Zhiqing, who had realized something today and felt that he was a little closer to the "Tao", lightly kicked the horse's belly, and galloped towards the city of Weizhou Zhisuo. The speed was a little faster than before!

The crisp sound of horseshoes traveled far away in the empty Central Plains, and was finally torn and crushed by the merciless night wind, just like the turbulent world, the rolling momentum, crushing every ant that wants to fight alone...

According to Meng Gong's plan, Meng Gong walked slowly, Guo Jing made a sudden attack, took Weizhou by surprise, and controlled the four south paths of Taihang, so that the northern barrier of Kaifeng could be established, and at the same time, the golden embankment of the Yellow River could be protected from destruction.

Meng Gong will suddenly accelerate northward five days after Guo Jing leaves the team, take Kaifeng as quickly as possible, and at the same time enter Hulao, and defend on the spot in Hulao Pass and Xuanmen Pass.

Then, when Shi Songzhi recovered Wuguan, he entered Luoyang from the South Fourth Pass of Luoyang, and the two sides met under the city of Luoyang!
In fact, this was because he was afraid that Shi Songzhi would not work hard. Meng Gong once expressed emotion to Xu Yangzi, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to impress Shi Songzhi if he did not make great achievements in recovering Luoyang Xijing.He still knows a lot about his former boss!
At this time, Zhang Jin in Xuncheng already knew that the Southern Song Dynasty's northward army had crossed the Huai River and was advancing towards Kaifeng at a tortoise speed.

Zhang Jing was looking forward to it very much. Although Meng Gong had saved his life under the city of Caizhou, wouldn't the best way to repay an opponent be to kill him with all his strength on the battlefield?

He couldn't wait to know what Meng Gong's expression would be like when he was baptized by the Yellow River when he was about to arrive in Kaifeng. He would be quite pleasantly surprised!

As for the possibility of Qiu Zhiqing telling Song Ting about his plan to break up the Yellow River, he was not worried at all, just kidding, Quanzhen still has some skills in the Northland, but what is it in Song Ting?
And even if you know, so what?Knowing that you can't deal with it!I'm just faster than you!

Xuncheng was originally not the seat of Weizhou, but it was only during the Jin Dynasty that the Weizhou government was moved to Xuncheng in order to defend Bianliang.At this time, Xuncheng, which used to be the barrier to the north of Bianliang, was the sharp knife nailed to Bianliang in Zhang Jing's hand.

Entering the army at this time, the Yellow River has begun to enter the wet season, which is not only beneficial for the Song army to transport grain, but also beneficial for Zhang Jin to pull out the Yellow River...

Recently, another detailed report came in, and Meng Gongri marched only thirty miles.This made Zhang Jing feel nervous, feeling that there must be something hidden in it.

He has worked with Meng Gong before, and he thinks he has a certain understanding of Meng Gong's combat style. He is definitely not such a procrastinating general!
Sure enough, another five days later, the vanguard sentry came to report. After the Song army passed Bozhou all the way, the speed increased sharply, and they were heading north rapidly. As of three days ago, the vanguard had entered Yingtianfu (Shangqiu), Nanjing.

Zhang Jing got up suddenly, and was about to go out of the city to the barracks, but at this time, the vanguard sentry cavalry was galloping in the starry night, it was the right time, the sky was just dawn, and the south gate of the city was wide open...

In order to surprise Meng Gong conveniently, Zhang Jin stationed [-] troops under his command [-] miles south of Xuncheng, more than [-] miles away from the Yellow River embankment. Go south and cross the river in one day.

Qiu Zhiqing had been laying in ambush for two days on the only way south from Xuncheng to the camp. His mission was to not let even a single bird fly south from them into the Mongolian camp from last night!
The sound of horseshoes was faintly heard, and Qiu Zhiqing, who was on duty at night, hurriedly woke up the team leader who was traveling with him, and he still had to rely on him for this kind of command.The team leader is Yu Yong, an old scout.

Although he hadn't heard the sound of the horse's hooves yet, he was about to worship Qiu Zhiqing as a god along the way, so naturally he wouldn't doubt it!
As soon as midnight last night, Yu Yong and the others dug a lot of horse traps on the official road and pulled up three tripping ropes. Unless a large army came, it was impossible for ordinary sentinels to pass through intact.

After arranging the tripping rope, Yu Yong asked Qiu Zhiqing to lead the three of them to continue the ambush. They got on the horse and prepared to prevent any fish from slipping through the net. Hey, this is called professionalism!As for why cavalry came out of the city at this time, they were also a little puzzled.

Because according to their observations, people usually go to the barracks at the right time in the morning, and only people return to the city from the barracks to report in the evening.

However, in order not to be followed and cause the hidden army to be discovered, the sentry cavalry going south did not take this road, but entered the city from the southeast...

The sound of the horse's hooves was getting closer. Somewhat beyond their expectations, this should not be the sentinel horse they met two days ago to pass the news.

It became clearer and clearer, there were about [-] riders, some exceeded their expectations, but the arrow was on the string, and they had to go!
Like the seven people sitting on the horse, Qiu Zhiqing held up the magic arm crossbow, ready to go...
