…

Wang Yan is from Hanoi. When he was a teenager, he liked reading military books, and he liked riding horses, shooting archery and other things.

Later, Wang Yan joined the army and followed the Jingyuan Road to the Jingshidao to enter Xixia, making military achievements.

Zhang Suo appreciates Wang Yan's talent and courage very much.

Therefore, after being ordered to become the Hebei Punishment Envoy, Zhang Su met Wang Yan by chance, and promoted him again and asked Wang Yan to become the commander-in-chief.

After Wang Yan became the commander-in-chief, he collected more than 700 people in total, and then transferred to the Xishan Mountains of Gongcheng County to camp in an offshore camp.

Afterwards, Wang Yan sent his confidant to contact the heroes of the Two Rivers to show another picture.

Not long after, in the Zhongyi militia camp in Hebei and Hedong, there were 19 camp leaders, such as Fu Xuan, Meng De, Liu Ze, Jiao Wentong, etc., who responded to Wang Yan's call. The soldiers had more than 100,000 people, which stretched hundreds of miles. The sound of the golden drums could be heard from each other. From west to Bing, Fen, north to Xiang, Wei, and anyone who had gathered to form a camp to resist the Jin Dynasty was also under the command and command of Wang Yan.

In order to show his determination to resist the Jin Dynasty, Wang Yan's troops stabbed the eight words "He serves the country with a sincere heart and swears to kill the Jin thief" on his face.

Therefore, people call this unit the "Eight Character Army".

At present, the Jurchen military leaders in Hebei mainly regard Wang Yan's troops as strong enemies and repeatedly send troops to encircle and suppress the Eight Character Army.

However, although the Jin people repeatedly invaded their camps with large troops, they lost more than they won.

Later, Zong Ze made an appointment with Wang Yanhan to his Grand Marshal's Mansion and discussed with him that fighting alone was useless, and he hoped that Wang Yan and his Bazi Army could accept the command of the Grand Marshal's Mansion.

According to Zong Ze's opinion, Wang Yan led all the troops of the Eight Character Army and some of the leaders of the Zhongyi militia such as Jiao Wentong and others to cross the Yellow River south, and arranged the troops along the Yellow River, completely obeying the command of Grand Marshal Zong Ze.

Zong Ze submitted a memorial to Han Qing to report on this matter and recommended Wang Yan as the Hedong and Hebei Commander.

Han Qing agreed, but asked Wang Yan to lead his subordinates to the capital to accept rewards and reorganization.

Zong Ze said to Han Qing: "At present, the two largest anti-Jin horses in Hebei are Wang Yan's Bazi Army and Ma Kuo, the Zhongyi militia commanded by Zhao Bangjie and Zhao Gong. The troops next to them can come to the capital to be granted, but these two troops cannot be moved."

Han Qing also knew that the Eight Character Army and the Zhongyi militia had restrained the great power of the Jin army in Hebei. If the two armies were rashly withdrawn, the Zhongshan Prefecture and Hejian Prefecture that had been defending for more than a year would definitely be lost. Moreover, this year, the Eight Character Army and the Zhongyi militia would also need to hold the Jin army back so that they could not go south, so that they could rest for a year.

Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, Han Qing only asked Wang Yan and Ma Kuojin to Beijing to receive rewards and appointments.

From Zong Ze, he learned that the court was preparing to appoint him as Hedong. The Hebei Governor made him the third person in Hedong, Hebei, after Zong Ze and Zhang Su, and allowed him to go to Beijing to be granted title. Wang Yan immediately brought his personal guards to the Grand Marshal's Mansion overnight, and then rushed south with a whip.

The seven hundred eight-character soldiers brought by Wang Yan were all horse soldiers. They only appeared in the eyes of Chen Sui and others for a while, and then quickly moved south.

Looking at the Eight Characters Army gradually moving away, Zhang Yongshen said: "The King of the King will definitely make a fortune this time."

Chen Cui said: "The king's capital has today, which is the inevitable result of his hard work. If you go deep into the enemy's hinterland like the king's capital to fight the enemy, you will also have a time to shine your ancestors and win your wife and sons."

All the generals said, "Promise!"

The Grand Marshal's Office continued to move south.

Along the way, the Grand Marshal's Office encountered many troops heading south, some of which had only thirty or fifty men, some with seven or eight hundred men, and some with tens of thousands of men. The most was the troops led by Yang Jin without oxen, with more than 100,000 men.

but--

Chen Cui, who had been in command of the army for more than 20 years, clearly saw that although Yang Jin led many people, there were all elderly, weak, women and children. It was better to say that they were refugees than to the army, and there were no grass wherever they passed.

In fact, it is not difficult to see that Yang Jin and the others are not so much as going to Beijing to be enfeoffed and reorganized, but rather they are looking for a life to survive in Beijing.

Fortunately!

The court seemed to have expected that Yang Jin and the others would be in the situation, and then arranged inns in many important places along the road to provide free food and grass for passing military and civilians, and arranged patrol soldiers to maintain order.

In addition, everyone came to the capital to accept rewards from the court, so there was no need to cause trouble, which in turn ruined their future.

This has caused so many troops to go south to fail to cause any major chaos.

But then again, Chen Cui and the others have encountered elite troops.

The Zhai family army led by the Zhai Jin brothers of Luoyang are very elite, including nearly two thousand horse troops. Their strength cannot be underestimated and are not much worse than the Grand Marshal's Mansion Army.

Close to the Gyeonggi area, Chen Sui, who was good at observing, found that the public security here had completely stabilized. The four suburbs along the road were equipped with commanders and guards. The Lianzhu Village was established along the road like fish scales, so as to strictly prepare for the imperial guards and connect with each other.

What shocked Chen Sui and others was that the soldiers along the way, both in terms of their spirit and discipline, were unprecedented. The Zhai family army, which they thought was elite, was immediately compared with these troops.

Chen Cui ordered Zhang Yong to go and inquire, and then he found out that these soldiers were all from Fen Army.

"No wonder the Fen Army can completely wipe out the Jin army that invaded the southern invading!" Chen Sui and others sighed.

After walking a while, a quiet young man in high-end military uniform came over with hundreds of officers who were either bookish or generous in looking at him.

Before others could ask, the young man Wenjing took the initiative to say, "I am Zhang Zhizhang, a political commissar of the Beigudu Army. They are all political cadres of the Beigudu Army. They are here to lead the Grand Marshal's Office into Beijing."

Chen Sue, who had contact with the generals of the Zhonggudu Army (the original Kudu Army), knew that the military political commissar was the same as his commandership level, and he had to control him politically.

Chen Sue did not dare to be negligent, so he hurriedly came over in person and said, "I have met General Zhang."

Zhang Zhizhang asked with a smile: "But Chief Chen?"

"It's Chen Sue."

Chen Sui quickly introduced Shang Gongxu to Zhang Zhizhang, including Dangjing, Wang Xiaozhong, Quan Bangyan, Kong Yanwei, Lu Qiu, Sun Zhen, Li Heng, Sang Zhong, Li Bao, Zhang Yong, Ma Gao, Zhang Ji, Bai Anmin and other senior generals of the Grand Marshal's Office.

Zhang Zhizhang met Shang Gongxu and others very kindly, and then introduced the political cadres on their side to the generals of the Grand Marshal's Office.

Only then did someone discover that many political workers have disabilities.

But because everyone just met, Chen Cui and others couldn't ask directly how the disability of these political cadres came from.

After everyone saw the ceremony, Zhang Zhizhang said: "From forward, it is the capital area. The army's weapons must be left here. After the reorganization of the army is completed, the court will replace the armies and distribute elite weapons to the armies. Of course, if the soldiers have the armies that they are used to using, they can also register them. After the reorganization of the army is completed, they will return them to everyone intact."

Zhang Zhizhang patiently explained to Chen Sui and others: "This is mainly to prevent people from living things. I believe you know that dozens of troops gathered near the capital today, and there are still a continuous stream of troops rushing to the capital. If it is not controlled, there will definitely be constant fighting."

Li Hengdao: "It must be like this?"

Zhang Zhizhang smiled and pointed to a place not far away with the words "Zhanbing Pavilion" and said: "The weapons of the eight-character army commander Wang Yan, the two generals of Zhai family commander Da Zhai, the Wumashan commander Ma Kumama commander, the big leader of Puzhou King Shan, and the big leader of Li Cheng and Li Da Zhai, all of which were displayed in this pavilion to dominate the world. You will release the magic weapons and will also be sent to the Zhanbing Pavilion for display. The court will also leave a reference for it, called "Divine Weapons List" to be passed on to future generations."

It was originally a very disgusting thing, but after the imperial court made this move, it immediately became much easier to accept.

Furthermore, those mobs handed over their weapons, but they were regular soldiers, so how could they fall behind?

Therefore, Chen Sui and others quickly asked their soldiers to hand over their weapons, and then led them into the Jingji area by Zhang Zhizhang...
