"Your Highness, why are you here in person?"

As soon as Guo Mo arrived at the gate of the "Yue Family Army" camp, he was recognized by the captain guarding the gate.

The 50,000 "Yue Family Army" led by Yue Ao this time were the first group of people to be trained, and many of them had also met Guo Mo.

"How's it going, brothers, are you ready?"

Guo Mo jumped off his horse, and the reins were taken by the "Hu Ben Army" following behind him.

Going back to the battlefield this time, Guo Mo originally thought that he could ride alone, but Huang Rong and Zhao Rushu disagreed.

In the end, Lu Guanying was separated and asked to lead 500 "tiger troops" to personally guard Guo Mo.

A sergeant wanted to enter the camp to report, but was stopped by Guo Mo. Entering his camp did not require so many formalities. Five hundred "Tiger Soldiers" were assigned to the barracks, and Lu Guanying followed Guo Mo and walked straight in.

"Old Qin, I think now is the best time. We can't wait any longer. Anyway, the current situation no longer requires the use of surprise attacks at night."

Before reaching Yue Ao's Chinese army tent, I heard Yue Ao's loud gong voice making noise.

Of course, the only person who can quarrel with him is Qin Ju, the current deputy commander of the "Yue Family Army".

Qin Ju was originally the deputy commander of the "Jingnan Army". After the expansion of the "Yue Family Army", it was about to face a battle to destroy the Jin Dynasty, so Guo Mo specially transferred Qin Ju here.

These people were all among the top ten in the same "Martial Arts Examination" that year, and Qin Ju was the oldest among them. He was already thirty-seven or eighteen years old this year, and he was the most serious person.

Although during the martial arts competition, there was some bad blood between Yue Ao and Qin Ju due to their status.

However, after so many years, the unhappiness of the past has long been gone. What's more, Yue Ao has matured a lot. He has led the army alone for many years and is no longer the same as before.

"Yue Dutong, your judgment is absolutely correct, but the original plan is to enter the Kingdom of Jin again when it gets dark tonight, and rush all the way to the Bianliang defense line."

"If it were moved a full four hours earlier, would it have any other effects? After all, this is an operation of fifty thousand troops, plus twenty thousand cooperating auxiliary troops, so a single move can affect the whole body."

It seems that Qin Ju still has some concerns.

"Haha, what are you two arguing about?"

At this moment, Guo Mo lifted the tent curtain and walked in from the outside.

"Your Highness? Why are you here? These bastards are very capable. Your Highness doesn't even know to announce in advance when he comes, so that the general can go out to pick you up in person."

Yue Ao, who was facing outward, recognized Guo Mo at a glance, as well as Lu Guanying who was following behind Guo Mo. He hurriedly turned out from behind the handsome man, came forward and bowed to salute.

"Your Highness, are you here?——"

When Qin Ju saw Guo Mo, he also gave a military salute.

"Okay, we are all our old brothers. Are you so open-minded? Tell me, what were you arguing about just now?"

Guo Mo was not polite, walked directly behind Shuai Gu, and motioned for the other three people to take their seats as they pleased.

The four people were sitting here as if they were in the "Dunwu Army" barracks outside Lin'an City, except that more than seven years had passed.

"Your Highness, you see, this is the information we just received from the scouts this morning. Cui Li from Weizhou has already made contact with the Jin people. However, this old boy suffered a big loss this time and was almost made a dumpling.

.”

Qin Ju picked up a piece of information from Shuai Gu and handed it to Guo Mo with both hands. When he said these words, his face was still smiling.

Qin Ju had been leading part of the "Jingnan Army" to be stationed in Hebei, and he also participated in the Hebei War a few years ago. He was responsible for the attack on Dongping Mansion left by Cui Li.

Later, when Cui Li was stationed in Weizhou, the "Jingnan Army" of Dongping Prefecture, led by Qin Ju, also confronted Cui Li for a long time.

Although no major war broke out between the two armies, daily minor conflicts still occurred from time to time. Qin Ju also knew what kind of person Cui Li was.

This time, I saw that this old boy once again wanted to gain military exploits as a gift of surrender to the Song Dynasty.

To be honest, Qin Ju still despised such people from the bottom of his heart.

Therefore, when seeing the news of Cui Li's collapse, both Yue Ao and Qin Ju felt a little excited for no reason.

"This Cui Li has been a soldier for decades, and he claims to be a cautious person. How can he suffer such a loss? He really deserves it."

"However, since he has held back at least 20,000 troops of the Jin Kingdom, doesn't it mean that there are only more than 10,000 people used to defend Bianliang City?"

"Even if it is placed on top of Bianliang City, it will not be enough for our 'Yue Family Army', hahaha——"

Guo Mo is not arrogant. For this war, Feng Mofeng's craftsmanship camp has been very busy.

Not to mention anything else, hundreds of catapults alone were made, and countless cannon stones. The raw materials were abundant in the mountains of Luoyang.

Over the past year or so, Guo Mo's land in the five states of Henan has suddenly received hundreds of thousands of extra laborers. Naturally, they need to be put to good use, which can be regarded as a kind of "relief for work".

It was during the slack season that the official roads between Henan Prefecture, Ruzhou, Xuzhou, Dengzhou and Tangzhou were renovated for the hungry people who were in urgent need of labor in exchange for food.

The road has been widened so that three carriages can run side by side, making it much more convenient for pedestrians and horse racing, or for transporting supplies.

Fifty thousand "Yue Family Army" went to the battlefield, and 20,000 auxiliary troops were dispatched to transport materials and supplies. Without good enough roads, it would be greatly compromised, especially those large siege equipment.

"Yue Dutong is right. We can no longer go as planned. If we wait until night, Cui Li might be killed."

"Inform the entire army to assemble. In half an hour, we will march to the Kingdom of Jin——"

...

Thousands of "Letter to the People of the Jin Kingdom" were distributed in the last few state capitals of the Jin Kingdom, and it was impossible to find who sent them.

The Kingdom of Jin sent out troops, arrested a group of people ruthlessly, and even killed a group of people for this purpose, and confiscated many "letters to the people of the Kingdom of Jin". Unfortunately, they still could not stop the panic.

The people's mouth is better than the river. The "complaints" can be confiscated, and people can be arrested and killed. However, the contents of the "complaints" have already spread like wildfire.

In addition to a large number of soldiers fleeing from the army, those with the surname Wanyan, especially the royal relatives who were closer to the Jin Dynasty Emperor Wanyan Shouxu, were in constant panic.

They did not dare to go to the street alone, fearing that they would be captured alive and sent to the prince of the Song Dynasty to exchange for food.

The people of the Jin Kingdom who originally wanted to leave their homes and flee to the five states in Guomo, Henan, have now settled down.

The Song Dynasty will attack Bianliang City in early June. According to their estimates, in a month or two at most, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Song Dynasty will be able to capture the last remaining state capitals of the Jin Kingdom.

Then do you still need to escape?

Anyway, I just have to endure it for two more months. I really can't live anymore. Who is willing to leave the land that has given me the gift of childbearing and leave my hometown?

Bianliang City also fell into panic, especially between the royal generals and ordinary generals, it seemed that there was no longer any trust at all.

At this time, Wanyan Saibu, the Privy Council envoy of the Jin Kingdom, appeared again as the Dinghai Shenzhen.

The old man's body was already weak, but he stayed with his body all day long. He led several trusted generals to inspect the defense of Bianliang City three times every morning, noon and evening.

"Uncle San, please take a rest and don't tire yourself out——"

Shi Anshi had fallen, and Wanyan Shouxu personally took the imperial doctor to the master's residence twice.

The imperial doctor's diagnosis was also very clear. This was a "burn out" disease, and he would not live for more than a month.

In terms of seniority, Wanyan Sai was still the uncle of Emperor Wanyan Shouxu of the Jin Kingdom who had not yet entered the fifth server. However, since Wanyan Shouxu came to the throne, he liked to reuse young and powerful people.

Therefore, these veterans are more or less neglected, even worse than Wanyan Sai.

If Wanyan Sai had not already been the Privy Council envoy of the Jin Kingdom, and had great prestige in the entire army, Wanyan Shouxu would have wanted to change to another Privy Council envoy.

Unexpectedly, at the critical moment of life and death, the ones who could make Wanyan Shouxu feel more at ease would be these old ministers?

"Your Majesty, after surviving this crisis, it will not be too late for me to take a rest. You must be mentally prepared. If the time is not right, you must follow me eastward."

"I have sent people to prepare a boat at the seaside. Even if I take the boat and return to the land of Longxing of our Jurchens alive, I will be worthy of my ancestors."

It turns out that the former war god of the Jin Kingdom had no chance of winning when faced with the Song army that was about to go to war!

Wanyan Shouxu knew that what Wanyan Sai didn't tell was the truth, but could he really return to Liaodong?

The legend of white mountains and black waters is just a legend in Wanyan Shouxu's heart. What can he do if he goes back there?

"Third uncle, don't worry. I have sent another order to Cui Li of Weizhou and promised him that if he can lead troops to come to Qinwang, I will give him the highest reward ever given by a Han emperor."

One word means "King of Side by Side"——"

"What?--"

Listening to Wanyan Shouxu's "bold words", but seeing the wry smile on his face, Wanyan Sai didn't know that this was his Majesty's helpless move.

"Cui Li, will he come? If he does come, what is his purpose?"

Wanyan Shouxu's helpless move made Wanyan Saibu fall into deep thought.

Cui Li could be regarded as Wanyan Saibu's subordinate at that time. After all, as the Privy Councilor of the Jin Kingdom, all the generals of the Jin Kingdom were under his control.

This man is a rogue, treacherous, cunning, and unprofitable. Will he come to King Qin of Bianliang?

Because of this problem, Wanyan Saibu specially sent his confidants to monitor Cui Lijun's every move.

Wanyan Saibu really did not have any extra troops. There were only more than 30,000 troops. In addition to the 2,000 people guarding the palace, there were 10,000 sergeants each at the west and south gates. The leading generals were also members of the Wanyan family.

Two thousand people were also posted at the East Gate, but no additional troops were sent to the North Gate. Only two hundred people were there to maintain law and order on a daily basis, and the remaining 10,000 sergeants were as a reserve team ready to support at any time.

It was Wanyan Saibu's unintentional move to send people to keep an eye on Cui Li in Weizhou. Unexpectedly, he received the message that Cui Li's entire army was dispatched to prepare to cross the Yellow River south.

After receiving this news, Wanyan Sai knew that Cui Li might have rebelled. If he really came to King Qin, he would not have failed to receive the information.

The matter was so important that Wanyan Sai went to the palace overnight and informed Wanyan Shouxu of the matter.

Don't worry, after Yan Shouxu issued several edicts to summon Cui Li, Cui Li really came, and Wanyan Saibu's words made Wanyan Shouxu shaken.

"Third uncle, if, I mean, if Cui Lizhen comes to visit King Qin, wouldn't we have wronged him?"
