Biography of the traitorous officials who dominated the Song Dynasty

Chapter 263 North and South are always separated

Jin Wushu is not very different from Yi Li. Yi Li is not a typical brave and strategic general. He is calm and calm when encountering problems and does not act impulsively.

After all, Jin Wushu is not completely opposite to Oli, so Jin Wushu has always been accompanied by nine counselors.

These nine counselors gave Jin Wushu advice and plans, regardless of big or small matters.

In this battle of Wuquan Mountain, these nine counselors were naturally by Jin Wushu's side.

During these forty long days, the nine counselors scratched their scalps and tried every method, but nothing worked.

At this moment, someone suddenly remembered that one of the most important things in the Battle of Wuquan Mountain had been ignored by them.

To put it simply, they complicated the issue in a hurry.

The most fundamental reason why a hundred thousand troops were besieged by Han Shizhong in Wuquan Mountain was that they did not understand the terrain here.

In this case, it would be better to post a notice outside the city and offer a generous reward. If anyone can lead them out of this predicament, there will be a heavy reward.

The nine counselors thought of this and immediately reported the matter to Jin Wushu.

After hearing this strategy, Jin Wushu immediately seemed to be reborn and quickly ordered people to do it.

As soon as the list was posted, less than three hours later, a Fujian man named Wang immediately unveiled the list.

This man had a plan to get out of trouble, and soon met Jin Wushu and drew a map for Jin Wushu with his own hands.

He described the terrain of Wuquan Mountain in great detail and told Jin Wushu: "King Jin, in the southeast corner of Wuquan Mountain is this area, and there is a road in it."

"Before the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, Wuquan Mountain was, after all, the royal tribute water place for the royal family of the Tang Dynasty. During the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, major warlords fought and dynasties changed rapidly, so that Wuquan Mountain was completely abandoned."

"It is inevitable that there are many old rivers in this area of ​​Wuquan Mountain. King Jin, look here."

Jin Wushu paid 120 million points of attention, frowning and looking in the direction pointed by this man's hand.

The man said: "This old river secretly leads to the Yellow River. If you can order people to dredge one-third of this old river, you will be able to avoid Han Shizhong!"

Jin Wushu used all his strength to grab this life-saving straw. He held the man's hand tightly and asked urgently: "What happens after the dredging is opened? Can I leave directly after waiting?"

The surrounding soldiers and counselors felt that it was a bit unrealistic.

I heard this man say that there is an old river. After dredging this old river, Han Shizhong can be avoided.

It seems unlikely!

Because if it was so easy to avoid Han Shizhong, why would this old river be needed?There are many old rivers in the three directions of southeast and west. Doesn’t that mean the way to survive is right in front of us?

The man quickly waved his hand and said: "That's not the case. What I mean is that when we reach the edge of the Yellow River, we should rush south, sail the boat to the sea, and then return to the Kingdom of Jin from the sea!"

Although this method sounds convoluted, it can be understood with effort.

Naturally, Jin Wushu didn't understand it for a while. The nine counselors under him suddenly realized it and broke the matter into pieces and told Jin Wushu.

After Jin Wushu figured it out, he rewarded the man generously, and then began to order the army to secretly dredge the old river.

Continuously communicate day and night, and race against time day and night on the premise that Han Shizhong will never be beaten again.

Han Shizhong should have taken the initiative to attack Jin Wushu long ago, but after all, the numbers are here. Han Shizhong only has [-] old and weak soldiers, while Jin Wushu has a hundred thousand elite soldiers.It can be said that if you can defend, you cannot attack, and if you can attack, you cannot defend.

Once Han Shizhong launches an attack on Jin Wushu, it is very likely that it will directly lead to Han Shizhong's massive defeat, and the famous Battle of Wuquan Mountain that will be remembered in history will also fall short.

Based on uncertainty, Han Shizhong has been standing still.

It was precisely because of this that Jin Wushu was given enough time to dredge the river.

Just like that, the days passed by.

For eight full days, Jin Wushu finally completely dredged the old river channel pointed out by the traitor named Wang.

Eight days later, the sky was clear, the sun was clear, and there was no wind.

Jin Wushu ordered the [-] Jin troops under his command to escape from Wuquan Mountain in batches from Laohe Road. The matter was done so secretly that Han Shizhong and others could not detect it at all.

By the time Han Shizhong and others discovered it, Jin Wushu had already led his soldiers to flee.

Although the ending of Wuquan Mountain is like this, it makes people feel sad.

However, it does not affect the status of the Battle of Wuquan Mountain in the history.

Just imagine, a mere 40 old and weak soldiers trapped Jin Wushu's [-] strong soldiers in Wuquan Mountain for more than [-] days. The Jin army was desperate and killed people to satisfy their hunger.

In the end, if it weren't for the appearance of traitors, Jin Wushu and his [-] troops would have been burned to death at the hands of Han Shizhong.

It is said that after Jin Wushu returned to the Kingdom of Jin after escaping death, he suffered a brief amnesia due to excessive mental pressure.

A whole month passed, and with the collective efforts of his family members, he was able to find his memories bit by bit.

In the following decades, Jin Wushu could not help but cry with fear every time he thought of the Battle of Wuquan Mountain.

It's okay not to think about it, but when he thinks about his embarrassment in Wuquan Mountain and Han Shizhong's face that is both terrifying and abominable to him, Hun'er feels as if he has lost it.

From then on, the Jin people really saw how powerful the Song Army was.

Just imagine, the majestic prince Wanyan Zongbi fought the battle like this when facing the Song Dynasty. One hundred thousand mercenaries were forced to go to heaven and earth by seven thousand old and weak soldiers.

So, from then on, the Jin army never dared to cross the Yellow River easily again.

Even if there are still many times when you want to use troops against the Song Dynasty, you must carefully consider this magnificent battle of Wuquan Mountain before making a decision.

Basically, it can be said that the Battle of Wuquan Mountain jointly created by Han Shizhong and Liang Hongyu directly established a stable situation between the Song and Jin Dynasties for more than 300 years, with the Yellow River as the boundary, and there were few wars.

After the end of Wuquan Mountain, Han Shizhong led the seven thousand old and weak soldiers back to the Song Dynasty. Emperor Huizong smiled from ear to ear.

He said to the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty: "Who said we don't have military generals in the Song Dynasty? How brave our Song Dynasty soldiers are! In this battle, the gold thieves were beaten like this, forcing them to eat each other!"

Emperor Huizong was very proud, and at the same time he was deeply grateful to Han Shizhong and Liang Hongyu from the bottom of his heart.

Although he still had some admiration for Liang Hongyu in his heart, Han Shizhong was after all a loyal general who protected his family and country.

So he decided to choose an auspicious day to recognize Liang Hongyu as his adopted sister.
