Chapter 245: Chasing and Killing Zhao Kuangyin

Soon, Dong Zunhui led his army to Zhaocun, and then two graves were found at the entrance of the village. Liu Qingyi asked Dong Zunhui: "General, according to the prisoners' instructions, the emperor and Guo Yunming both committed suicide here. This may be their grave. Anyway, we have just buried it, should we dig it out and see?"

Dong Zunhui was a little moved, but this might be the emperor's tomb after all. Now Guo Wei is heading south in the name of clearing the monarch, so he must respect the emperor's body. Even if he moves the grave, he must choose a good day, let alone digging the grave. Dong Zunhui thought of this and ordered: "Brother Liu, I will leave you a hundred soldiers. You come to guard this place, protect the wounded, and search the residents here."

Liu Qingyi immediately accepted the order, and Dong Zunhui kept the wounded soldiers who had just fought and led the remaining more than 700 soldiers to continue chasing forward. Soon, the troops found many deserters on the side of the road.

According to their confession, Zhao Kuangyin is currently leading a team to escort Su Fengji and others to Yanzhou. The families of these soldiers are all in Kaifeng City, and they really can't bear to leave their parents, wife and children at home. Moreover, the emperor is dead. Everyone thinks that their future future is very slim, so they took advantage of Zhao Kuangyin's inattention and became deserters one after another.

Dong Zunhui thought to himself that Yanzhou was Murong Yanchao's territory, and Zhao Kuangyin must not be allowed to escape to Yanzhou. He was a great man who founded the Song Dynasty in the future, so he must not give him another chance to escape!

So Dong Zunhui left dozens of soldiers to guard the prisoners, and then continued to rush forward with the remaining troops. Anyway, according to the prisoners' confession, Zhao Kuangyin had less than 200 people in his hands, and he had more than 650 soldiers in his hands, which was enough to wipe out them.

At the same time, near a small mountain village called "Wu Song Village", Su Fengji whispered to Zhao Kuangyin: "General Zhao, there may be pursuers behind us, why did we suddenly change the route and attack this small mountain village?"

While watching the situation in the mountain village, Zhao Kuangyin whispered: "Mr. Su, we only have one hundred soldiers now, and our strength is extremely weak. We can't escape from Yanzhou without any tricks. The fake grave we asked the villagers to make in Zhao Village is to waste time of pursuing soldiers. When we walked here from Zhao Village, many soldiers fled along the way, but the last general ignored them, in order to make the pursuing soldiers less wary of us and continue to chase along the road just now.

.Anyway, Lord Houzan disagreed with my opinion and fled directly to Yanzhou. He will definitely lead the pursuers for us who have voluntarily cut off the rear! Besides, Lord Houzan escorted the emperor's coffin. I believe that after the pursuers chased the coffin, they will feel satisfied and no longer pursue small fish and shrimps like me. We can rest for a day in the mountain village and recover our physical strength, maintain a good state and then rush forward, which is much faster than forcing support."

Su Fengji gave him a thumbs up, "Young man is so terrifying! Fortunately, I chose to stay, otherwise I would become your pawn."

"My lord is too good. I just want to survive and avenge my Zhao family in the future!" Zhao Kuangyin whispered: "In the battle of Liu Zipi, my Zhao family members will be completely lost. The wife, children and young people in the city have no power to protect themselves, and they will be vented by the angry Guo Wei and others! The Zhao family is already over. I... I will endure humiliation and live a life of silence, even if I am scolded, I will survive, and I will survive..."

Su Fengji gently patted his shoulder. This is still a child!

Zhao Kuangyin widened his eyes and tried his best not to let his tears flow down, but he still failed. He smiled bitterly and wiped the tears from his eyes, changing the topic: "It's meal time now, but there are only eleven smokes in the village. It seems that there are not many people. Sir, it's time for us to launch an attack, so we can also let the children eat some food and have a good rest!"

Zhao Kuangyin did not expect that most of Dong Zunhui's commands were cavalry, and Dong Zunhui attached great importance to him, even more important than tracing the emperor's coffin. Dong Zunhui followed Yanzhou for a while and caught many deserters.

After taking the confession of the deserter, Dong Zunhui said to Shi Shouxin: "Shouxin. According to the instructions of these deserters, Hou Kuangzan escorted the emperor's coffin to Yanzhou, while Zhao Kuangyin escorted Su Fengji to stay nearby. You have been the commander of the battalion for a long time. If you want to be promoted to Du Yuhou, you will not be able to rely on your qualifications alone. Anyway, Hou Kuangzan has less than fifty people around, and I will give you two hundred people, and you can go and grab the emperor's coffin for me!"

Shi Shouxin was very grateful to Dong Zunhui. Snatching back the emperor's coffin was a great achievement, but his sworn brother gave it to him without saying a word! Shi Shouxin was unwilling to say polite words, but he just gave a solemn salute to Dong Zunhui and led the team to leave immediately.

Dong Zunhui looked at Shi Shouxin and led his army out, and said to the remaining 400 people: "Brothers, let's go and catch Zhao Kuangyin! Guo Shuai had an order to kill Zhao Kuangyin and get a reward of 100 taels, and capture Zhao Kuangyin alive!"

Everyone cheered in unison, immediately scattered, searched repeatedly around the neighborhood, and soon they got news from a defeated soldier. Not long ago, more than a hundred people went to a small mountain village, which was probably Zhao Kuangyin's army.

Dong Zunhui attached great importance to this and immediately led his army to rush forward. Before he arrived at the village, he met the villagers who escaped by chance. According to their confession, the village was called "Wu Song Village", and the village was mainly composed of villagers with the surname Wu and Song. Dong Zunhui nodded slightly, Wu Song was not Song, and it seemed that Zhao Kuangyin was destined to be destined to be here!

Dong Zunhui immediately led his army to surround the small mountain village, and found soldiers standing guard at the entrance of the village. Dong Zunhui ordered people to stand on a high place to observe secretly, and found that some soldiers in the village were happily searching for property from house to house. Some soldiers were running around in the wall garden, excitedly catching the old hens that the villagers had finally raised.

Dong Zunhui smiled slightly. It seemed that even Zhao Kuangyin, who was "wise and powerful", could not restrain his subordinates. What's more, burning, killing, looting is the easiest to restore morale. Even Guo Wei, who is considerate of people's livelihood, issued an order to loot for ten days!

Seeing that his soldiers had surrounded the "Wu Song Village" tightly, Dong Zunhui immediately ordered the entire army to attack Zhao Kuangyin!

At this time, Zhao Kuangyin's troops were not mentally prepared at all. They thought that the pursuers had been taken away by Hou Kuang Zan. At this time, they were suddenly attacked and suddenly became in chaos. In addition, Dong Zunhui's troops occupied an absolute advantage in military strength and quickly controlled the mountain village. However, Su Fengji tried to resist and was killed by the soldiers on the spot, and Zhao Kuangyin was even dismembered by the soldiers who were busy fighting for merit!
