Rebirth: Overthrow Song Dynasty

Chapter 397 The Battle of Earth River

That night, Liu Lin slept extremely soundly.

In the middle of the night, he faintly heard the sound of shouting for killing from outside, but he turned over and continued to sleep.

In his dream, he dreamed that the Jurchen came, he knelt in front of the Jurchen, and the Jurchen touched the top of his head with his hands. He was so grateful that he gave away his family's property and his wife, his There was a "happiness" smile on his face.

The sky was gradually getting brighter, and at this moment, Liu Lin suddenly felt a little chilly all over his body.

He muttered a few words and tightened the quilt, but at this moment he felt that the quilt seemed to be extremely cold!

He opened his eyes in a daze, and at this moment, a basin of cold water poured down on his head.

This time, Liu Lin finally woke up completely.

"Bastard!" He sat up and cursed loudly.

However, soon another basin of water was poured on his head.

"Who are you?" Liu Lin felt something was wrong at this moment, he looked forward and said in astonishment.

There were more than ten people standing in front of them, all of them were wearing military uniforms, but the military uniforms were slightly different from those of their puppet army. But it's not the military uniform of the Jurchens, it looks like the military uniform of the Song Dynasty!

The person standing in front of him is also a Han Chinese, a Han Chinese who is exactly like him!

"So I was dreaming? I clearly remember it was a good dream. The Jurchen adults came to Yucheng. They treated me very well and rewarded me constantly. Why did I dream of Song Jun again?" Liu Lin murmured.

"What are you dreaming?" A general of the Song army on the opposite side snorted coldly, came to Liu Lin, and slapped Liu Lin hard on the face.

With a muffled sound, Liu Lin uttered a scream and fell off the bed.

"This...isn't it a dream?" Liu Lin let out a terrifying scream.

"Of course it's not a dream!" The general of the Song Army opposite said amusedly.

"How did you come to Yucheng? Impossible, we still have 10,000 troops, you can't just show up like this!" Liu Lin rolled to the corner, his body trembling, and said.

General Song Jun laughed and clapped his hands, only to see a middle-aged literati walking in from outside.

With a flattering smile on his face, the middle-aged literati knelt down in front of the general of the Song army, and said, "See the general for the villain."

"Master Liu? It's you?" Liu Lin said in disbelief.

It turned out that the middle-aged literati was none other than Master Liu who visited him last night, but he never dreamed that Master Liu was actually a mole! Liu Lin has already guessed what happened last night. It must be Master Liu who opened the city gate, and then the Song army entered Yucheng smoothly, and then the Song army captured Yucheng without any effort.

"My lord, I'm sorry." Master Liu said.

"Damn it, our father and son treated you well, why did you betray our father and son?" Liu Lin gritted his teeth.

"You are traitors and traitors. I just had no choice but to commit myself to you temporarily! Now that Master Wang is here, I naturally want to rely on Master Wang." Master Liu said.

"Hmph! Didn't you say that the Jurchen army is coming soon, are you lying to me?" Liu Lin said coldly.

"Of course I didn't lie to you." Master Liu said.

"The Jurchens are invincible! When the Jurchen army arrives, you will only die! Master Liu, you are looking for death!" Liu Lin said.

"The Jurchen army is here, they are looking for death!" Song Jun general sneered.

"That's right, the Jurchens are here, they're looking for death!" Master Liu hurriedly laughed to please.

"You took refuge in Wang Shi, so that we can win Yucheng without any effort, and we will not treat you badly! Your Majesty has a decree. For people like you who have taken refuge in meritorious service, the previous sins will be forgotten, and rewards will be given!" Song Jun The general said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, General!" Master Liu was overjoyed, knelt down on the ground again, and said.

"How are you going to treat me?" Liu Lin said, sweating profusely.

"General, this person is a traitor and must be killed!" Master Liu laughed.

"Master Liu, you are so begging for glory!" Liu Lin said angrily.

"You are the son of Liu Yu. You father and son have committed many crimes, and you can only die." The general of the Song army said coldly.

At that moment, he waved his hand, and several Song soldiers rushed over, dragging Liu Lin towards the outside.

"Don't, don't kill me!" Liu Lin shouted in panic, pouring out urine and feces.

However, the soldiers of the Song Army had already pulled him outside, and a soldier of the Song Army had already raised the knife in his hand and swung it downward.

"Ah!" Liu Lin uttered an earth-shattering scream.

However, after a while, Liu Lin realized that the knife hadn't fallen, and his neck hadn't been chopped off.

He knelt on the ground, gasping for breath.

At this moment, the general of Song Army had come to him.

"You do what I say, and I can spare your life!" General Song Jun said coldly.

"Yes! The villain understands! The villain understands!" Liu Lin panted heavily.

*** ***

In the afternoon of September 13th, more than a dozen Jurchens came outside Yucheng.

They yelled wildly below, the gate of Yucheng opened, and they rode their horses into Yucheng.

Afterwards, they came to the county government office in Yucheng, and Liu Lin came out to greet them with a few attendants.

These Jurchens are all small soldiers, but Liu Lin knelt down impatiently.

"You are Liu Yu's son Liu Lin?" a Jurchen soldier asked coldly.

Among these Jurchen soldiers, only this one can speak fluent Chinese.

"It's the villain!" Liu Lin said with a smile.

"How is the situation in Yucheng now? Is there any Song army around?" the Jurchen soldier asked.

"Everything around is normal, I haven't seen Song Jun." Liu Lin said.

"Very good, you wait here, our army is coming soon!" the Jurchen soldier said.

"Okay, the villain is waiting for your army to arrive." Liu Lin said.

After the Jurchen soldiers left, Liu Lin stood up. He wiped the sweat off his face, only to see that the general of the Song Army had come behind him.

"General, I have followed what you said." Liu Lin said.

"Very well, the Jurchens are coming, let's go to meet the Jurchens." General Song Jun said.

"Ah!" Liu Lin was stunned.

"We took 10,000 soldiers and horses to meet the Jurchens!" the general of the Song army laughed.

"But, this is courting death!" Liu Lin said.

"Hmph! If you don't agree, I'll let you die now." General Song Jun said coldly.

"The villain understands." Liu Lin said with a sad face.

"This time, the entire Jurchen army will be annihilated. I was fighting against the Jurchens when I was in northern Shaanxi, and after I joined the Northern Shaanxi Forbidden Army, I was also resisting the Jurchens. Now I want to destroy the Jurchens and restore the Central Plains! From northern Shaanxi to Shandong, six It's been a year, and it's time for this to end!" General Song Jun secretly said.

He looks west, with a confident gleam on his face.

*** ***

As the sky was getting dark, Wanyan Zongwang was leading the 80,000 Jurchen army and 20,000 puppet troops towards the front.

The Jurchen army was all cavalry, but the 20,000 puppet troops were infantry, so they marched much slower this time. Of course, the Jurchen army has been urging and whipping those puppet troops, and those puppet troops are also extremely exhausted now.

The sound of running water came from ahead, Wanyan Zongwang waved, and a commander came to him.

"Where is the front?" Wanyan Zongwang asked.

"Ahead is the Tuhe River." The commander said.

"So it's Tuhe River! After passing here, it's not far from Yucheng." Wanyan Zongwang said.

"Tuhe" is also a famous river in Hebei and Shandong! At the end of the Tang Dynasty, the lower reaches of the Yellow River were diverted, cutting off the flow of the Shang River into the sea! In order to drain waterlogging, the ruler at that time used hundreds of thousands of civilians to dig a dirt river between the Yellow River and the Shang River in ten years.

In later generations, the Yellow River broke through many times, and the course of the Tuhe River became wider and wider, and its status became more and more important. It was later called the Tuhai River.

Now, here is still "earth river".

"How is the situation in Yucheng?" Wanyan Zongwang asked.

"Everything is normal in Yucheng. Liu Yu's son Liu Lin is defending there, and there is no Song army around." The commander said.

"Very good! Let's go forward overnight and try to get to Yucheng as soon as possible. After we get there, let's rest." Wanyan Zongwang said.

At present, the Jurchen army continues to move forward.

A quarter of an hour later, they came to Tuhe.

I saw the waves of the Tuhe River, and the surface of the river was extremely wide.

"Your Highness, there is a small bridge over there. It's okay for a small number of people to pass by. It's impossible for our 100,000 troops to cross that small bridge." The commander said.

"Build the pontoon bridge immediately!" Wanyan Zongwang said.

Soon, the Jurchen army began to erect pontoon bridges.

An hour later, more than ten pontoon bridges were supposed to be there, and the Jurchen army headed towards the opposite side.

On the opposite side is a wild grassland, the grass is extremely lush, half the height of a person! It is autumn now, and many grasses have withered and yellowed.

When the evening wind blows, only the rustling sound of the wind can be heard, and it seems that everything is normal.

Wanyan Zongwang came to the opposite side, at this moment, several Jurchens rushed towards here.

"Your Highness, Liu Lin from Yucheng led 10,000 troops to meet His Highness!" said a Jurchen soldier.
