Chapter three hundred and thirty sixth body as bait

Now the Song Dynasty and Jin Kingdom are all preparing for war. Everyone is actively accumulating strength, and only Wuyuezhai and Zhending are still fighting.

At this time, the one who commanded the battle in Wuyuezhai had been replaced by Ma Kuo. Ma Kuo was originally ordered to go to the Song Dynasty. After reading the letter he sent, Zhao Gou knew that this was his younger brother Zhao Zhen at once.

After reading the letter, Zhao Gou was overjoyed and immediately appointed Zhao Zhen as the Grand Marshal of the Hebei Army and Horses, leading the Anti-Jin Movement in the North.

This Hebei Marshal of Military Forces and Horses was once an official position that Zhao Gou had held, and he held the power of military force. Of course, he did not just give others military force so casually.

Although he had granted Zhao Zhen an official position, he did not give him any practical benefits. Instead, he urged Ma to expand his position and let him use it for his own purposes and monitor his younger brother.

Ma Kuo sighed after hearing this. He lived in Yingtian for a while and found that there was still constant struggle within the Song Dynasty court. Now the pro-war faction seems to have the upper hand, but Huang Qianshan and Wang Boyan, who are in harmony, are the most favored.

This made him know that the emperor's intention was to defend the south of the Yangtze River, and it would be best to divide the river with the Great Jin Kingdom to govern. As for his shouting that he would recover his hometown and welcome the two saints back to Beijing, it was just to say it out for everyone to hear it.

Ma Kuo knew that he would not get any benefits here, and it was meaningless. In addition, he knew about his copycat crisis, so he pretended to agree to Zhao Gou's request and returned to the north early.

Relatively speaking, Liu Ziyi was much better taken care of. When Zhao Gou heard about his purpose, he sighed leisurely: "I met Gao Shaojun when I was in Kaifeng, and I also drank wine in the Zhuangyuan Building together! Shaojun's style has always made me feel disappointed. Thinking about the things that happened later, everything is as Gao Shaojun said. Shaojun's style is really disappointing.

If the young master is here in the north, I can rest assured! If all the people in the world are like the young master, what kind of Jin people I am afraid of in the Song Dynasty.”

As he said that, Zhao Gou sighed again: "Looking back to the time when Song and Jin were still ally, Gao Shaojun had already guessed that the Jin people were ill-behaved. He killed the envoy from the Jin Kingdom and was confiscated the iron scroll of the alchemy book. This is our Song Dynasty, sorry to Shaojun!"

All the civil and military officials were moved when they heard this; Liu Ziyi quickly knelt down, looking grateful and thanked him endlessly.

Zhao Gou finished his performance and said, "Now that our Song Dynasty has just been established, and we have no strength to recover the lost territory in the north. We need all the heroes who resisted the Jin Dynasty to fight against the Jin people. Of course, I will not be stingy with the rewards to everyone.

Since the young master is in the north, I can rest assured. The person who came here planned to restore the position of Gao Chong's prince as the prince of Kaiping, and appointed him as the pacification envoy of Hebei and Hedong, and commanded the rebels on Lianghe Road to resist the Jin soldiers together.

At the same time, Ouyang Xun was appointed as the deputy envoy of the Two Rivers Pacification, Li Miao was the pacification envoy of Hehedong, and Chen Go was the pacification envoy of Hebei, assisting Prince Gao in his anti-Jin work."

"Thank you, the emperor, I am the prince of the emperor, and I will thank you for your kindness. The Kaiping Army will definitely not let you down and fight the Jin people to the end! As long as the Kaiping Army exists for one day, the two rivers will never fall!"

"How might it be! Kaiping! If the army in the world is like you, how solid is my country and country? What kind of fear is the Jin people?"

Liu Ziyi reiterated: "Emperor, when it comes, the prince of the county also asked me to ask the emperor for help. I hope the emperor can send some people to help us govern the local area. For example, Li Guang, magistrate of Linlu County, Lu Zai; Yang Bangyi, magistrate of Liyang County, etc., have the ability to govern the local area, please help the emperor."

The people Gao Chong wanted were all small officials at the grassroots level, and many people Zhao Gou had never heard of. Although he was also worried that Gao Chong would become bigger, it was time for him to contribute to him now, so he agreed very happily.

Liu Ziyi finally breathed a sigh of relief. The majority of the tasks he came here this time were completed, and he had the chance to go to his hometown for the rest of the time.

Liu Ziyi then gave up with great gratitude and then left the palace. Liu Ziyi stayed in Yingtian Mansion for two more days and received the emperor's imperial plate. He handed the imperial plate to Cao Ning first, and asked him to take the imperial plate from the official family, and at the same time protected Yang Bangyi, Li Guang and others to go north first. Under Wang Heng's protection, he went to his father's funeral in Chong'an, Fuzhou.

Cao Ning knew that the matter was of great importance and was not pretentious. At the same time, Jiangnan was still under the control of the Song Dynasty, and with the strength of Liu Ziyi and Wang Heng, there should be no problem. So Cao Ning took this group of people to continue north without saying a word.

Ma Kuo is a solo horse, so he has to be much faster. When he returns to Wuyue Village, the last Seven Girls Peak in the entire Wuyue Village is still under their control, and the other five peaks have been lost.

After Ma Kuo came back, he took over the army again. He was dissatisfied with Zhao Bangjie's previous actions, so he quickly asked his confidant to see Gao Chong with a heavy gift, asking him to lead troops to support him without any grudges.

Gao Chong and Li Hong have been studying the countermeasures of this battle. Cai Songnian sometimes participated in their discussions, but he spent most of his time busying himself and went downstairs to do ideological work for the people and the army every day. Once, he actually ran to the enemy's heart and almost encountered the Jin people. Thanks to Zhao Fujin's timely discovering the abnormal intelligence and reported to Gao Chong, Gao Chong personally led his people to rush over and rescue him.

"Ma Kuo from Wuyue Village really can't stand it anymore. In the past two days, they have sent a series of messengers to ask for help. We must do some big moves to support them."

Li Hong also agreed with it: "Although Ma Kuo's idea is not very simple, he is still very determined to resist the Jin Dynasty. If something happens to him, it will be very unfavorable to leave us alone. I just don't know that we should start from one aspect?

Wanyan Zongfu and Jin Wushu are not fools, and they are all waiting for us to attack? If one is not good, he will suffer his losses."

"This Wanyan Zongfu relied on his sufficient troops to set up such a long snake formation, step by step, and one side could support him at any time when it was difficult, which made it difficult for us to talk."

Gao Chong looked quietly and said, "It's not impossible. If we attack in full, we will catch fire everywhere and it will be too late to save him; then we can find opportunities to win in chaos and achieve certain results. But we have few people, so it is possible that the gain will not be worth the loss."

Cai Songnian looked at the two people frowned, smiled slightly, "Actually, there is another way, set up a bait to let the enemy attack actively. As long as they leave the long snake formation, we can take the opportunity to destroy them."

The two of them lit up. Cai Songnian said, "The last time to save me, Marshal Du slashed Shu Liesu's face. He had always wanted to seek revenge on me, and it was the most suitable for me to make this bait."

Gao Chong smiled and said, "Songnian, I can't help it, but I'm really worried if you want to go. Let's do it! I'll go with you, I think this is enough to make up my mind quickly!"

Li Hong quickly said, "Master-in-Capital, if a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, you cannot take risks."

Cai Songnian also quickly stopped him and said, "If Marshal has gone, I am afraid that the noise will be too big. If Jin Wushu is also attracted, we can't swallow it! Instead, we shot ourselves in the foot."

"What kind of lord am I? I remember how happy we were to be poor and humble when we were together. We drank a big bowl of wine and ate meat. Now you are all alienated from me. It seems like I was made of mud, and it will break when I touched it. If the entire Kaiping Army is, I will agree not to go again if I have higher martial arts skills than me."

"Today is different from the past, things and people are changing. Marshal Du is the leader of our Kaiping Army. If something goes wrong, the Kaiping Army will be in trouble. So Marshal Du has to consider the entire Kaiping Army when doing anything."

Gao Chong smiled bitterly and said, "Let's do this! Songnian and I have a great effect on Kaiping Army, so I can't let him go alone. This time, I will attract the Jin people in the name of Songnian. How about I go there if I disguise myself as Songnian's guard?"

Li Hong and Cai Songnian looked at each other, and they both knew that Gao Chong had made up his mind now and they could not stop him, so they had no choice but to agree to his plan.

However, the people who followed them this time were not simple. They were all masters of the Beiwei Army, guarded by Gao Baobao and Shao Yun's entourage.

Then Cai Songnian went down to Baodu Mountain in the name of inspecting Daguo Town. This Daguo Town is a plain in front of the mountain. However, he is more than ten miles away from Baodu Village and Hutuo River, so it is very convenient to retreat at the speed of the cavalry.

Daguo Town was originally a subordinate village of the Gao family, and most of them were farming and brewing wine for the Gao family. They had a good relationship with the Gao family. Especially after Gao Chong took power, he had already distributed the fields at home to the villagers here, which made everyone grateful.

So Gao Chong and others chose the location here, where they were filled with their eyes that could clearly know the movements of the enemy, but the Jin people could not find any useful information.

Today, Daguo Town is very lively. Everyone knows that Cai Songnian is Gao Chong's confidant, so he warmly welcomes his arrival.

Cai Songnian did not waste any chance to have a good chat with the villagers and the volunteer captains here. He listened carefully to them, dividing the land and the development of volunteers and bravery; asked them if they had encountered any difficulties.

Daguo Town is a town that developed earlier here, and it can also be said to be a template for the Kaiping Army's pilot and next step of promotion. Everyone was quite satisfied with the news from here. Cai Songnian also gave affirmation and lived in Daguo Town that day, hoping to go to the nearby villages the next day.

As a result, in the evening, the volunteers discovered something was wrong, and a group of enemies came quietly towards Daguo Town. The volunteers immediately ignited the beacon, and the alarm bells in Daguo Town were also ringing.
