It is said that Jin Wushu left the Jin army camp without greeting anyone. He led three or five personal guards and rode to the north bank of the Huai River. He found the few small boats of the Jin army and called over a dozen Han soldiers from Hebei who could row boats. He then took a small boat and crossed the river in the snow.
The boat turned a little to the west and when it reached the middle of the river, under the reflection of the lights on both sides, it could vaguely see the hazy figure of another Han army ship on the south bank at a distance of more than a hundred steps. However, this ship was still heading northwest, apparently heading for Xiacai City, and did not pay any attention to the boat that was deliberately speaking Chinese. The river was weak, and Jin Wushu was too lazy to pay attention to the other party's messenger, so the two sides passed each other directly.
However, after this boat trip, Jin Wushu never encountered any Han army ships again. He then sailed his boat east and west at will, holding a wine jug in the middle of the Huai River and carefully observing the military situation on both sides.
However, the more Jin Wushu observed, the more he felt embarrassed... Not to mention the solidity and completeness of Xiacai City, he had already known about it in the past few days. And the Bagua Mountain across the river to the southeast of Xiacai City was also a dangerous mountain with a solid camp!
Not only that, if you look closely now, this Bagong Mountain is just a part of a whole mountain range (Xiashi Mountain), or an independent extension, and this mountain (Xiashi Mountain) blocks the north and south of the Huaihe River, with a dangerous terrain, Xiacai in the north and Shouchun in the south, and the north and south Feishui merge into the Huaihe River at the foot of the mountain, the terrain is really complicated. Speaking of Bagong Mountain alone, the reason why this mountain is famous is that it is located between the main roads of this complex terrain. If you want to cross the river from here, the two regular and wide roads are under the cover of Bagong Mountain on both sides, but the Song army has built fortifications here early!
Jin Wushu is Aguda's fourth son, and he is only twenty-five or twenty-six this year. So on the one hand, he participated in most of the major wars during the rise of the Jin Dynasty as a mid-level or lower-level officer, and he has the unique roughness, barbarity, brutality and cunning of Jurchen professional soldiers. On the other hand, the Jin Dynasty has been established for thirteen years. As a prince of the right age, he was exposed to the most advanced culture of the era at an early age, received a considerable degree of cultural education, and broadened his horizons in the wars in the south and the north...
Today he came to Hezhong in the snow. On the one hand, as the commander-in-chief, he had to find a way out of the current situation, so he had to fulfill his duties as a military commander and come to investigate the situation in person, just like his father who was almost dying of illness but still had to go to the Juyongguan front line to inspect; on the other hand, he had complicated thoughts deep in his heart. He looked down on the vulgarity of those old Jurchen generals and the affectation of the surrendered people from Liao and Song, so he wanted to escape.
It was snowing heavily. Jin Wushu entered the Huai River in a small boat. He looked at the mountains, the river and the sky and sighed. At first he was looking at the military deployments carefully, but at the end, after drinking half a pot of wine, he actually forgot his real purpose and stood in the river in a daze.
PS: I would like to thank Renjian Yanhuoyu and Chaos Seven Days for their support. I asked Xiaojiu to kowtow to make up for it. This new book period is already 27 cute... Logically I should be excited, but I don’t know why, but I feel a little nervous instead.
besides……
