Chapter 897 Reinforcements Arrive
Wang Feng left the alley where the concubine lived. He was so preoccupied that he did not go back to the barracks. Instead, he rode out of the city and came directly to Xiaosong Village, a few miles north of the city. Go straight into the tavern and find a seat near the door to sit down.
The bartender hurried forward to say hello, "What do you want to eat? The shop has homemade perry wine and some wild game."
"Have a jug of wine and stir-fry some side dishes."
"Officials wait a moment, they will come right away!"
The bartender hurried to the kitchen. Wang Feng took a look at the tavern. There was no private room, only four tables in the room, and he was the only guest at the moment. He looked at the sky again, and it was almost dusk.
Not long after, the bartender brought the food and drinks. Wang Feng poured himself a glass of wine and drank it sullenly.
He drank a few glasses of wine, and suddenly felt something. When he turned around, he saw a man sitting at the table behind him, looking at him with a smile that was not a smile.
Wang Feng’s blood gushed to the top of his head, he stood up and rushed over, grabbed the young man, "Give me back my son!"
"General Wang, you can't get your son back with such an attitude."
"Despicable and shameless, you actually use this method to threaten me!"
The man pushed him away coldly, "You and I are enemies, using this method to deal with it is already kind enough!"
Wang Feng sat down slumped, and asked in a hoarse voice for a long time: "Are you Song Jun?"
"You also know that you are not Song Jun?"
"Hmph! There are so many people who surrendered, and I'm not the only one."
"All right!"
The man said calmly: "Then talk about your son. You should know that if you want to get your son back, you have to pay a price."
"Say it! What do you want?"
"It's very simple, take your army to Huoyi County."
It is more than two hundred miles from Linfen County to Huoyi. It takes two days to walk northward and four days to go back and forth. Wang Feng pondered for a long time, and suddenly realized, "You want the money, food and materials in the warehouse in Linfen!"
The man nodded slowly, "Exactly!"
"But you can't transport them back to Taiyuan."
"Don't worry about this, lead the army away for four days, and I will return my son to you. I, Yan Qing, will do what I say!"
"Are you Yan Tongzhi?"
Yan Qing nodded, Wang Feng was silent, after a long time he sighed and said: "Actually, I don't want to work for Jin Bing either. If I take the army to Guanzhong, will Li Dutong accept me?"
"If you expect to be promoted, I don't think it's possible, but if you don't ask too much, it shouldn't be a big problem, but this matter will be discussed after you come back."
Wang Feng agreed, "Okay! I hope I will leave when I want, and I can leave at any time."
"If General Wang is possible, lead the troops to leave tomorrow morning. When we leave, my son will return your concubine."
Early the next morning, Wang Feng led 1,000 soldiers to the north to suppress the bandits on the grounds that there was a banditry in Shuque Road. Half a day after the 1,000 township soldiers left Linfen County, Liu Da led 5,000 rebels to kill them, and at the same time brought a group of soldiers. With more than a thousand donkey carts, the rebel soldiers occupied Linfen County without bloodshed. The Jinzhou Tongpan appointed by Jin Bing was shot and killed by the rebel army when he fled.
The rebel army captured the warehouse in Linfen. Liu Da ordered the rebel soldiers to change their clothes on the spot. The soldiers all put on leather helmets, had swords and spears, and a large number of bows and arrows. Money, food and supplies.
In Cangcheng, the soldiers were busy carrying food and supplies. Liu Da walked up to Yanqing and said, "I went to the county government just now, and the county magistrate promised to help us mobilize another thousand carts, so that the money, food and supplies would cost almost one thousand dollars." The move is over."
"Where are you going to put the money, food and soldiers? Have you considered it?" Yan Qing asked calmly.
"I hope Commander Yan can show us a clear way!"
Liu Da was completely convinced by Yan Qing. Sure enough, he captured Linfen County without a single soldier, and got a lot of money, food and materials, which would completely change their fate. The five Liu Da brothers were full of gratitude to Yan Qing.
Yan Qing smiled slightly and said: "Li Dutong thinks that you should not use the city as your foundation. In the face of the powerful siege force of the Jin soldiers, you can't support it. Li Dutong suggests that you go to the Taihang Mountains to build a foundation. The soldiers will have nothing to do with you, one day, you will become a strange soldier!"
"I understand. This time we will transport the grain and supplies directly to the Taihang Mountains. In addition, in terms of training the army, I also ask Commander Yan to help us."
Yan Qing nodded, "I asked the deputy general Li Ying to take three brothers to follow you up the mountain. He has rich experience in both combat and training. From now on, General Li Ying will assist you."
In the end, there were only 80,000 people who were forced to recruit people on the East Road, but there were 200,000 people who were forced to recruit people on the Hebei Road. Nearly 300,000 people worked day and night to clear the vast snow in Jingxing, and finally opened Jingxing on the tenth day. The Jingxing Road, which was blocked by snow, was restored to flow. The 50,000 gold soldiers who had been waiting in Zhending Mansion, led by general Wanyan Zongbi, escorted a large number of siege weapons to Taiyuan Mansion.
Wanyan Zongbi is the famous Jin Wushu in history. He is the fourth son of Wanyan Aguda. He is about 30 years old. The second time he attacked the Song Dynasty, he followed his uncle Wan Yanxie all the way to the south like a broken bamboo, cutting through the passes and seizing the passes. In Zhending Mansion, he once defeated 50,000 Song troops with 5,000 Jurchen iron cavalry, and made great military exploits for the Jin Kingdom.
However, Wanyan Sheng, the current emperor of the Kingdom of Jin, doesn't like him very much. This time the Jin army attacked the Song Dynasty aggressively. Wanyan Zongbi sat on the bench, and this time Wanyan Xie also ordered him to lead 50,000 reinforcements to Taiyuan Mansion. Wanyan Zongbi had already held his breath, and just wanted to take back Taiyuan City in one fell swoop, so that his father, the uncle who despised him, could see his own strength. ability.
Three days later, the 50,000 troops finally arrived in Taiyuan Mansion. Ever since the attack on Water Gate failed, Wan Yanchang realized that attacking the city with flesh and blood would only make his army suffer more casualties. He simply stood still and patiently waited for reinforcements to arrive.
When Wanyan Zongbi's army arrived at the barracks, Wan Yanchang went out to welcome Wanyan Zongbi's arrival. He was a little unhappy. Although Marshal Du sent reinforcements over, he also sent Wanyan Zongbi, who had a higher status in the army than him, over. The intention is very obvious, obviously wanting Wanyan Zongbi to replace him in the dominant position in attacking Taiyuan City.
"With the arrival of Wushu, I can finally take a break from my burden." Wan Yanchang took Wanyan Zongbi's arm and walked towards the main camp of the Chinese army. The smile on his face was so dry and hypocritical that anyone could see that his words were insincere.
Zong Bi smiled slightly and said, "I'm afraid I will disappoint Uncle Liu."
Although Wan Yanchang is not very old, his seniority is very high. He is the younger brother of Wanyan Aguda, so naturally he is Wanyan Zongbi's uncle.
He heard that Wanyan Zongbi's words seemed to have other meanings, so he quickly asked: "Then Marshal Du's meaning, how should Taiyuan City be attacked next?"
"Marshal Du said that Li Yanqing is very good at concentrating his forces on defending the city. If he only attacked one city wall, he would hit Li Yanqing's arms. So this time I will be in charge of attacking the northern city, and the sixth uncle will continue to attack the eastern city. Whoever breaks through Taiyuan City first , who will get the credit.”
Wan Yanchang was overjoyed, it turned out that he was not here to replace him, but to compete with him, and he was not afraid of competition. He had just dispatched more than 10,000 Han troops from the south of Hedong Road to replenish the army, bringing his strength back to 40,000 People, as long as there are large siege weapons, he is also confident to capture Taiyuan City.
"Then please ask Wushu and the army to rest for three days, assemble the siege weapons, and we will start the siege the day after tomorrow!"
