Rebirth: Overthrow Song Dynasty

Yue Fei, Dong Xian and others left Yanjing City on December 17th. They headed west all the way, and they didn't start to rest until late at night when they couldn't see the road clearly.

Until the afternoon of December 19th, they arrived at Bauhinia Pass!

Yue Yun, the son of Yue Fei, was stationed here. Yue Yun was overjoyed to see Yue Fei coming.

In the early morning of the next day, Yue Fei, Dong Xian, Yue Yun and others headed towards Datong Mansion together.

When it was late at night on December 21st, they arrived at Datong Mansion.

Wang Fang, deputy commander of the Huanqing Army, is stationed in Datong Mansion. There are now a total of 50,000 soldiers and horses here!

However, with the arrival of Yue Fei's 40,000 cavalry, the number of soldiers and horses here has reached 90,000. In addition, there are 30,000 soldiers and horses in Yanmen Pass, Ningwu Pass and other places, and 20,000 soldiers and horses in Taiyuan Mansion!

"General Yue, you are finally here!" Wang Fang said with great joy when he saw Yue Fei's arrival.

"General Wang, is there any news from the Jurchens during this time?" Yue Fei laughed loudly, and he and Wang Fang headed towards the government office in Datong together, Yue Fei said.

"There is no news about the Jurchens yet. We only know that a large amount of food, grass and supplies have been transported to Zhongjing City! In addition, Wan Yanchang, Guo Yaoshi and others have left Zhongjing City and went to Liaoyang Prefecture in Tokyo. Now only the fourth prince of the Kingdom of Jin, Wanyan Wushu is stationed in Zhongjing City! If it goes south, I'm afraid it will still be Wanyan Wushu!" Wang Fang said.

"Tomorrow morning, I want to see how the Huanqing Army is doing." Yue Fei laughed.

"Let General Yue inspect it!" Wang Fang laughed.

In the early morning of the second day, when the sky was getting dark, Yue Fei had already woken up.

At this time, the bugle horns in the army also sounded, and countless soldiers of the Huanqing Army had already come out of the barracks and headed outside!

There are more than 3,000 soldiers stationed on the city wall, and the rest of the soldiers rushed to the outside of Datong Mansion for training outside the city!

This is just regular training, 365 days a year, this kind of training is almost non-stop!

Yue Fei, Wang Fang and others led a dozen soldiers to inspect and inspect the team, and saw that the soldiers were training extremely hard! The ranks of soldiers are unusually neat! It is often seen that the two teams confronted each other, and the soldiers marched forward bravely as if they were in a real battle!

In the distance, Yue Fei's 40,000 cavalry of the Forbidden Army are also training, and they are also working extremely hard!

After two full hours, it was already noon, and Yue Fei, Wang Fang and others finally stopped!

"Our soldiers are the strongest soldiers in the world! In terms of training, no army can compare with our Song army! Even the Jurchens, they are far inferior to us! The reason why the Jurchens were Powerful, that is because they have been hunting in the deep mountains and old forests all year round, and they have honed their skills. They are not afraid of death in battle, so they say that the Jurchens are invincible! But the current Jurchens only know how to enjoy themselves, and there are hardly many Human training! On the battlefield, many Jurchens are greedy for life and afraid of death! Such Jurchens are definitely not our opponents! General Wang, I am very pleased that your soldiers and horses are trained so well!" Yue Fei stood on the city wall of Datong up, said.

"The Forbidden Army is stronger than our Huanqing Army." Wang Fang laughed.

"The city wall of Datong is also extremely strong! Since this year, there have been a lot of equipment and supplies here! There are 50,000 celebration troops here. Even if the Jurchens go south, it will be difficult to conquer Datong! Moreover, there are Yanmen and Ningmen behind. Wu and other places, it is even more impossible for them to conquer!" Yue Fei said.

"We stay here, the Central Plains will be as safe as Mount Tai!" Wang Fang said confidently.

"The only thing I'm worried about now is Yinzhou, Xiazhou and other places! I don't know what happened to Han Shizhong, Wang Yan, and Zhang Jun? Can they hold those places?" Yue Fei said.

"Will the Jurchens attack those places?" Wang Fang asked.

"Very likely! Although the Jurchens are barbarians, they are not fools! Datong and Yanmen are so difficult to attack, they are likely to attack Yinzhou, Xiazhou and other places in the west! I want to lead the forbidden army to the Linzhou area. If Yinzhou If Zhou and Xiazhou are under attack, they can provide timely assistance!" Yue Fei said.

"It's a bitterly cold place in Linzhou, where the city is dilapidated! General Yue, why don't you stay in Datong Mansion first! After the beginning of spring, go to Linzhou!" Wang Fang said.

"No! If there is such a war in the direction of Xixia, it will be terrible! I have sent people to find Han Shizhong and others, and let them come to Linzhou to meet me! When necessary, I will go to Yinzhou, Xiazhou and other places in person, Let's see how they train," Yue Fei said.

He stayed in Datong for two days, carefully observed the deployment of Datong, and after confirming that Datong was not in danger, Yue Fei led 40,000 cavalry towards Linzhou!

Linzhou is located in the north between Datong and Yinzhou, but it is bitterly cold there, and the Song Army has no soldiers stationed there, which is equivalent to an abandoned city!

After Yue Fei came here, he cleaned up the place first, and let the soldiers settle down!

On December 26th, Han Shizhong and Wang Yan led thousands of soldiers to Linzhou City.

The two of them were stationed in Yinzhou together, only two hundred miles away from here, so they arrived very quickly.

Yue Fei met Han Shizhong and Wang Yan, and he had a very good impression of these two! Especially Han Shizhong, who is highly skilled in martial arts. When he was in Huang Tiandang, he once blocked Jin Wushu from going south. He is also a famous general of his generation. As for Wang Yan, if history remains unchanged, this is Yue Fei's enemy, but now that history should change, this is the first time the two have met! Wang Yanchang's simplicity is also from a farmer, he is the leader of the rebel army, and Yue Fei is also from a farmer, so the two feel close.

"Come in quickly!" Yue Fei laughed when he saw the two of them at the city gate.

Han Shizhong and Wang Yan nodded, and they headed towards Linzhou City.

After entering Linzhou City, I only felt that it was extremely dilapidated, many houses inside had been damaged, and there were no ordinary people here at all, and occasionally all I saw were soldiers!

They entered the state government office in Linzhou, and it was deserted here, only dozens of soldiers were here, even those who boiled water and served tea were all soldiers!

The room is also cold, not even a stove.

"We just came here two days ago, and we haven't cleaned up the place yet! After we came here, there was no firewood. The soldiers picked up some, but they used them. I don't have any here yet, so I can't make a stove! "Yue Fei said.

"I have long heard that General Yue loves soldiers like sons, and now it seems that he is indeed so!" Wang Yan exclaimed.

"Don't dare! As a general, it should be like this! Back in Hanzhong, His Majesty personally trained the soldiers. He did the hardest and most tiring things first, and the most enjoyable things last! I was just learning from His Majesty!" Yue Fei said .

"Oh, I often hear about His Majesty's military training in Hanzhong, but I just heard it. I don't know whether it's true or not! Some say that His Majesty is amazingly powerful, and one person can defeat a thousand people. Some say that His Majesty is a god who came down to earth. When His Majesty is training soldiers, the sky sometimes floats. Passing through the auspicious clouds, sometimes the golden light is shining, Han secretly thought it was a bit unreliable, General Yue, why not tell us about the military training of His Majesty back then!" Han Shizhong said.

"Okay! Let me tell you about your Majesty's military training back then! Back in Hanzhong, Zhe Keqiu had just been killed, and the Zhejia army's military discipline was lax, and its combat power was extremely poor. Your Majesty came to the Zhejia army..." Yue Fei said slowly stand up.

Speaking of what happened back then, Yue Fei had an expression of excitement and admiration on his face! To be able to subdue the Zhejia army in just a few days, and then stay in the barracks for several months, sharing the joys and sorrows with the soldiers, no emperor has been able to do this throughout the ages! The emperor personally trained soldiers and ate and slept with the soldiers. Under such circumstances, the Zhejia Army underwent a drastic change in just a few months and became the most powerful Forbidden Army in the Song Dynasty! As for the method of training soldiers created by Zhao Chen, the Code of Infantry Exercises, it has also proved to be far superior to all previous methods of training soldiers!

"It turned out to be so!" Han Shizhong sighed softly.

With such an emperor, such generals, and such an army, Zhao Chen's victory over Zhao Gou is inevitable, there is almost no suspense! At this moment, Han Shizhong was convinced by Zhao Chen!

"Your Majesty's actions are indeed admirable! General Yue, let me ask you, when will we use troops against the northern Jurchens?" Wang Yan said.

"If you want to use troops against the Jurchen, I'm afraid it will be next year! One, this year's endless wars, the soldiers are exhausted, and need a temporary truce to raise troops! Two, Yanyun and the Central Plains have just been recovered, and hundreds of thousands of troops need to guard Yanyun , Central Plains, prevent turmoil in Yanyun and Central Plains! Three things, the one-year war consumes a lot of money and food for the country, and Yanyun and Central Plains also need money and food for disaster relief. We have no money and food to support it, so it is difficult to go to war! Defense! Wait until next year or the year after that, when the country is in good shape, the horses are fat and the soldiers are strong, and the money and food are sufficient, then it will be time for us to go north to kill the Jurchens!" Yue Fei said.

Both Han Shizhong and Wang Yan nodded.

"By the way, what is the current situation in Yinzhou?" Yue Fei said.

Now Han Shizhong started to talk, now Yinzhou City has 50,000 soldiers and horses, some of them are the original Han family army, and some are the original Henan rebel army! As for the remaining soldiers of the rebel army, they have all returned home now. They are no longer willing to fight, and just want to return to their hometown! Yinzhou City has sufficient supplies. These 50,000 soldiers and horses have now been trained according to the infantry drill code. In addition, the military propaganda department has also entered Yinzhou City to continue to reform the army!

Yue Fei discussed the art of war with Han Shizhong and Wang Yan, both of them had extraordinary views, Yue Fei was overjoyed!

Yue Fei kept the two of them for a day, and said: "When Linzhou City settles down, I will lead my troops to Yinzhou to observe the situation in Yinzhou! We are all defending the land for the Song Dynasty, and we dare not slack off in the slightest ! If the land is lost, you and I will die without redemption, Yuemou please entrust the two brothers!"

Han Shizhong smiled and said: "Brother Yue, don't worry! We will definitely defend Yinzhou City! We also look forward to the day when we go north to attack the Jurchens!"

After sending the two of them away, Yue Fei felt relieved about Yinzhou for the time being. When Linzhou was settled and the Jurchen's firm information came, he would take time to go to Yinzhou to inspect the specific situation in Yinzhou.

"Why hasn't Zhang Jun come yet?" Yue Fei thought to himself.

However, thinking that Xiazhou is far away from Linzhou, Yue Fei stopped thinking about it!

But until the last day of the sixth year of Xuanwu, New Year's Eve, Zhang Jun hadn't arrived yet, Yue Fei couldn't help calling his son Yue Yun over.
