More than 600 Jin troops escaped from the valley, but there were less than 500 horses. Zhang Jun followed closely with 600 cavalrymen. He could not walk five miles, and all the Jin troops without horses were killed. Wanyan Huo's daughter led more than 400 people, fought while walking and retreated towards Mianchi.

The troops of the two sides were almost the same, so Zhang Jun did not dare to chase them too close. If he really fought to the death, even if he could destroy the Jin army, he would suffer a lot of losses. This time he came to Shanzhou, Zhang Jun's mission was to help Li Yanxian defend the city, and the others were secondary.

Wanyan Huo's face was dark and he didn't say a word, but just urged the horse to move forward. Someone provoked him, and at the least he scolded him, and at the worst he would slash him. He had never suffered such a loss since he followed the army south? As Lou Su's son, Wanyan Huo's woman commanded the army very young, and it can be said that she grew up in the battle formation. When destroying Liao, she made many military achievements. The army went south, surrounded Taiyuan, defeated Bianjing, and seized the prefectures in Shaanxi. How many military achievements did Wanyan Huo's woman make? Unexpectedly, she would be bullied by a Song army of hundreds of people this time, and would almost be wiped out by the entire army.

Zhang Jun led his troops to chase him slowly, and if he had the chance, he would come up to attack. However, the Jin army was extremely tenacious, and he would leave dozens of corpses every time, and the army continued to move forward.

After chasing twenty miles away, looking at the near noon, Zhang Jun ordered the troops to stop. He rode forward and looked at the Jin army in front, his eyes full of unwillingness. This was an extremely rare opportunity. If he probably had stronger strength to the Jin army, if Zhang Yan had arranged it properly before the surround, or even if the encirclement was not blocked at both ends, but only blocked the Jin army's retreat, the result would not be like this.

Fifty miles ahead was Mianchi County, and Zhang Jun could not chase after him. He was accidentally pushed back by the Jin army and even lost his wife and soldiers. Seeing that there were more than 300 remaining Jin soldiers, he could only allow them to retreat.

Wanyan Huo's girl felt something strange. She asked her personal soldiers and found out that the Song army had stopped.

After tying the horses to the back of the team, Wanyan Huo looked at the Song General in front of him. After a while, he whispered loudly: "Can the general in front leave his name?"

Zhang Jun said: "The Song army commander Zhang Jun! Unfortunately, I have the heavy responsibility. It is really hateful that I can't keep you today!"

"Zhang Jun--" Wanyan Huo's girl thought about it and thought, but she really couldn't think of what kind of person this is. Neither Li Yanxian nor Zhai Xing's army had this name. "Today I was careless and fell into your trap. The mountains are long and the road is long, and we will meet again! At that time, see you again!"

For a moment, Zhang Jun didn't speak. After a while, he said, "I don't know the general's name, what position is in the Jin army?"

Wanyan Huo’s girl laughed and said, “I’m the military commander, Wanyan Huo’s girl! Remember it!”

Zhang Jun was surprised. Unexpectedly, the Jin army attached so much importance to him, so Lou Su sent his sons. Unfortunately, if he had known that the person who pursued him was Wanyan Huo's daughter, he would definitely not have been so hasty.

Seeing Zhang Jun's appearance, Wanyan Huo's girl sneered and turned around and left.

Looking at the back of Wanyan Huo's daughter leaving, Zhang Jun felt a little disappointed. After fighting with the Jin people for several years, today may be an excellent opportunity to capture the highest general of the Jin army, but it was a pity that he missed it.

He returned to the valley with his troops, and it was almost evening. Zhang Qi and his subordinates were cleaning the battlefield.

After the ceremony, the two sat outside the tent.

Looking at the setting sun in the sky, Zhang Jun said: "General must have never imagined who we are surrounded today."

Zhang Yan laughed and said, "It must be not an ordinary person. In today's battle, the Jin army was extremely stubborn and could not understand what they said. Eight out of ten were the Zhen Jurchens. How could those who could bring a thousand Jurchen cavalry be ordinary people?"

Zhang Jun sighed: "I also had to retreat when I realized that I was surrounded by Wanyan Huo's daughter, the general of the Jin army, and the son of Wanyan Lousu. If I had known it was him, I would rather spend more energy than let him go!"

Zhang Qi was surprised. He had long guessed that he was surrounded by a big figure in the Jin army, but he didn't expect that it was such a big figure.

Shaking his head, Zhang Jun said, "Before leaving, Observer reminds me repeatedly. The most important thing to come to Shanzhou this time is to help Li Guan guard the city. You must not delay this matter because of anything. Otherwise, if you try your best to wipe out the army, you will never let Wanyan Huo leave!"

Zhang Yan said, "Forget it, it's better to be able to escape from heaven. Wanyan's life is a good woman. There is no need to worry too much about this. The control is not far from Yongning County in the south. You might as well go there for a walk. When you see Dong, you can also replenish some food and grass."

Zhang Jun said: "I still won't go. It's been a few days since I left Shanzhou, and I must go back as soon as possible. The Jin army sent Wanyan Huo girl to chase me, which shows that they are determined to win Shanzhou. If they go back late and the city of Shanzhou is broken, how can I explain it?"

There was a battle today, and the two of them became familiar with each other. They were outside the tent, baking a bonfire, and chatting until late at night.

The next morning, Zhang Jun brought the food and supplies supported by Zhang Yan, and no longer went to Guozhou. He crossed Wushan directly and went outside Shanzhou.

In the Jin army camp, Lou Su frowned as he heard Wanyan Huo’s experience talking about his trip. After a while, he said, “This Song army is very disciplined. When you see you chase you out, you will flee to the mountains in the south and set up an ambush with Dong Xian’s troops. Whether you can fight or not is the second priority. Doing this way, you must not underestimate them. Forget it, if they come to Shanzhou again, you can only lead troops to drive them away around you.”

Wanyan Huo's woman said, "Now I think about it, the one who ambushed us was Dong Xian's troops. The Song army who came to Shanzhou did not fight me seriously from beginning to end. Either they were not good at fighting power or they were preserving their strength."

Lou Su waved his hand: "Don't think too much about this. These people came to save Shanzhou, so why would they fight against you? According to my estimation, they should go outside Shanzhou again tomorrow. After attacking these days, there will be a scene of losing support in the city. If the troops had not entered the city a few days ago, they should have broken the city now. As long as you block the cavalry outside the city, you will be defeated in Shanzhou in another three or five days!"

Wanyanhuo's woman crossed her hands and said yes. Although she was still angry, she didn't say anything more.

After a day of attack, although several Jin troops climbed the city walls, they were immediately forced down by the Song army and the city was still not broken. At night, Lou Su was alone in the tent, drinking and eating meat, to relieve his boredom.

In the city of Shanzhou, Li Yanxian sat on the city tower, looking at the Jin camp outside, his eyes as if a knife.

By today, the Jin army has been besieging Shanzhou for a month and a half. If Zhang Chi had not brought 300 people into the city a few days ago, he would have been exhausted at this time, and it would have been difficult to stop the Jin army. Even with Zhang Chi's support, the Jin army would have been attacking the city day and night these days, and it would have been very difficult to defend.

Song Yan came over and said, "Today on the Lantern Festival. Observe that we still have a little rice. Did we cook it and let everyone have a full meal? The military and civilians have been guarding the city for a month and a half, and they are all exhausted physically and mentally. Taking advantage of this festival, it will be easy at least."

Li Yanxian said: "We are relaxed, but the Jin Lu will not be relaxed. Look at the Jin Lu camp outside the city, there are troops gathering. Now they are attacking the city day and night, and we are negligent, and the consequences are unimaginable!"

Song Yan nodded. He sat down on the city tower, leaned against the female wall, and looked up at the sky. In this way, he fought with the Jin army day and night, and even the iron-killed people could not resist it. To be honest, he was indeed a little tired and wanted to have a good sleep. But every time the Jin army came, he suddenly became more energetic and took his troops to fight with the Jin people. Now Song Yan is most afraid of stopping, for fear that he would never get up again if he sat down.

Yan Ping said: "Zhang Chi said that Wang Observing the army set out in the third day of the first lunar month, and has not been seen yet."

Li Yanxian sighed: "Xinye is eight hundred miles away, and it is also a mountain road. It is rare for the army to arrive in fifteen days. We must hold on for another three or five days before we can wait for reinforcements. These three or five days are not easy to endure."

Several people nodded and did not speak anymore.

There were no clouds in the sky, a full moon hung in the sky, and there seemed to be many fewer stars in the sky. Many Song soldiers leaned against the city wall, looking at the full moon in the sky, and couldn't help but emerge from the gods for a moment.
