The first emperor of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 86
"Our general told you to rush to the city of Shunchang to die. Now that we have built three pontoon bridges for you, we want you to hurry up. Your speed is too slow, isn't it? Afraid?" Song Jun's envoy said to Wan Yanchang unceremoniously.

Hearing what the envoy of the Song Army said, Wan Yanchang was panting heavily, and almost ordered the envoy to be killed. Of course he wanted to kill the envoy of the Song Army, but He was stopped by his military division.

"The so-called war between the two armies will not be executed, the general must not fall into Liu Qi's trap!" Wanyan Diwo said to Wanyan Chang who was furious.

Wan Yanchang took a deep breath, which calmed down the anger in his heart, and then said through gritted teeth: "Okay, you can go back and report to your general, and let him wait for me in Shunchang City." , his head, this time I'm going to fix it!"

After the envoys of the Song Army left, Wan Yanchang became very angry and ordered to abandon the supply troops, and the whole army rushed to Shunchang City.

After suffering a defeat at Zhong Shidao, now Wan Yanchang really needs a victory to justify his name, but he never thought that a little-known general of the Song Army would look down on him, how could he bear it, so he He was very angry, so angry that even the siege troops gave up first, thinking about rushing to Shunchang City, he wanted to kill Liu Qi.

"Don't be angry, general. In fact, this matter seems to be beneficial to our army now." Wanyan Diwo saw Wanyanchang so angry, and hurriedly persuaded Wanyanchang.

Wan Yanchang looked at Wanyan Diwo suspiciously and said, "How do you say that?"

Wanyan Diwo said to Wanyanchang: "General, doesn't this just confirm what the two Song soldiers who escaped said just now, this general of the Song army is a very successful general, it is best to deal with this kind of person .”

Wan Yanchang heard what Wanyan Diwo said, thought about it carefully, and felt that this matter was reasonable, and said: "Has the person who sent out to track him come back? Did you find anything?"

Wanyan Diwo replied: "The spies have returned. These two people did not lie. After leaving, they have crossed the Yellow River and escaped."

Wan Yanchang nodded and said: "Okay, the whole army will march to Shunchang City without rest. Today I will bloodbath Shunchang City!"

Ever since, Wan Yanchang led an army of [-] gold, excluding [-] people from the supply troops, and rushed towards Shunchang City in a hurry.

You know, at this time, it is already the sixth month of the lunar calendar, and the Jin army has been raiding for most of the day. At noon, it is the time when people are exhausted, hot and thirsty. , People and horses naturally have to drink happily.

As everyone knows, before the Jin army was about to arrive, some spies had already reported it to Liu Qi, and Liu Qi immediately dispatched a few soldiers to pour all the laxatives and arsenic collected from Shunchang city into the river upstream .

Jin Jun didn't expect that there would be problems in the river water. After eating and drinking enough, he continued to move forward, and Shunchang City was not far away.

"General, the spies have come to report that the Jin army has crossed the Yellow River and will arrive at the city of Shunchang soon." The spies came back and said to Liu Qi.

"Has Jin Jun already drunk the water in the river?" Liu Qi asked hastily.

"Drink it. The Jin army rested by the river for more than half an hour, and now the whole army has set off!" The spies replied.

Liu Qi was secretly delighted that the plan of the undercover strategist had come to fruition, so he immediately ordered the entire army to be summoned to meet the enemy.

These years, the Song Army was really scared by the Jin Army. When they heard that they were going to fight at this time, the Song Army in Shunchang City inevitably felt a little scared. Liu Qi naturally knew the fear of the soldiers under him. Standing on the high platform, Said to all the soldiers: "Are you afraid?"

No one answered him, which is actually equivalent to acquiescing, that is fear.

"I know you are afraid, but let me tell you, this time, you don't have to be afraid. What's so great about Jin Jun? Did they have two extra legs or a pair of eyes? They are the same people as us. If they strike with a knife, they will still die." Liu Qi said to the soldiers.

When all the soldiers heard Liu Qi's down-to-earth words, the fear in their hearts was greatly reduced. At this time, Liu Qi said again: "And this time, I tell you a piece of good news. Many people suffered from heat stroke in such a hot weather, so now their combat effectiveness is not even half of what it was in its heyday, so are you still afraid?"

"Don't be afraid!" Hearing Liu Qi's words, all the soldiers couldn't help shouting loudly, the brave and skilled Jin army can't beat everyone, and if they can't beat the half-crippled Jin army, it would be really embarrassing .

"It's okay to be afraid, I have a coup to cure fear!" Liu Qi said to the generals: "Come here, send these things to everyone."

A group of soldiers looked at the long black stick in their hands, no matter how they looked, it looked like a stick.

"General, what is this?" A soldier asked.

"What do you look like?" Liu Qi asked back.

"Isn't this just a stick?"

"Yes, this is a simple wooden stick!" Liu Qi gave an affirmative answer.

"This thing can make us not afraid?" All the soldiers looked suspicious.

"That's right, when you go to battle, you bite the wooden stick in your mouth, and when you see the Jin army, chop it up and don't talk, then the battle is over!" Liu Qi said to the soldiers.

The soldiers didn't quite understand the rationale behind Liu Qi's words, and Liu Qi didn't explain much, and only asked them to do what he said.

In fact, staying away from this matter is also very simple. When fighting, what is important is a kind of aura, and when speaking, this aura will be released. This principle, if you tell the people, they may not be able to understand , so Liu Qi simply regarded it as a military order and let this group of people execute it unconditionally.

After explaining everything, Liu Qi started to set out to march. According to the countermeasures discussed in advance, the [-] cavalry of the Song Army were postponed, and Liu Qi led [-] infantry out of the city to meet the enemy.

Regarding this point, many people in the army didn't quite understand it. They believed that the cavalry of the Kingdom of Jin should be the first to go to battle. At this time, using infantry to fight is no different from courting death.

When the Jin army charged at that time, the speed of the horse plus the strength of the people, how could the Song army have the power to parry at that time.

"You can fight with this general at ease, and this time, the golden army will definitely return in defeat!" Liu Qi said to the generals with a vow.
