Because of the frequent wars, the armies of these four countries have very strong combat effectiveness.

Yang Dayan has a B+ level army, which is an infantry army.

Zhe Keshi has an A-level army called the Zhe Family Army.

In addition, there is also a historical celebrity in Zhongzhou-Wei Sheng.

Wei Shengnai was a famous general in the Southern Song Dynasty. He was born in a peasant family and was an archer in his early years. Extraordinary courage, bravery and good at fighting.

He participated in the fight against the Jin army many times. In the 31st year of Shaoxing, when Emperor Wan Yanliang of the Jin Dynasty sent troops to invade the south, he led an army of 300 to recover Haizhou.

In the first year of Longxing, he was framed by Jia Hezhong. Later, Wei Sheng was vindicated and transferred to Chuzhou. When the Jin general Tu Dan Kening invaded, Wei Sheng died fighting. The Song Dynasty posthumously awarded him the title of"Zhongzhuang" as the military envoy of Baoning Army.

This person can be said to be brave and resourceful.

You can mount your horse to fight, and you can dismount your horse to compose poems.

Proficient in the art of war.

Well versed in humanities.

In the 31st year of Shaoxing, Wei Sheng once again crossed the Huaihe River for reconnaissance and found that the financial lord Wan Yanliang was active in Haizhou and Lianshui, gathering grain and grass, manufacturing equipment, and recruiting troops in various places to prepare for a large-scale southern invasion. He reported this situation to Lan Shiji, the magistrate of Chuzhou, suggested taking advantage of the unprepared Jin soldiers to attack Lianshui.

But Lan was afraid of taking responsibility and did not dare to adopt Wei Sheng's suggestion. So Wei Sheng volunteered, gathered 300 martyrs who volunteered to join the war, and said to them:"Now the Jin people only want to attack us, but they never thought that we would also attack them. This is the perfect way for us to regain our lost territory." Opportunity!" Wei Sheng led three hundred martyrs to cross the Huaihe River overnight and captured Lianshui City in one fell swoop.

After occupying Lianshui City, Wei Sheng strictly ordered his subordinates: Do not kill anyone without permission.

He said to the people in the city:"Lianshui was originally the land of the Song Dynasty, and you were originally the people of the imperial court. Since Huaibei was occupied by the Jin, everyone has been ravaged by the Jin captives. My hometown Suqian fell earlier than Lianshui, and I know full well that The pain of being a slave to a subjugated country. Now that the gold master has betrayed his faith and wants to invade the south again, don't you want to return to the court and work with me to regain the lost land?" After hearing this, the people were extremely excited:"We all dream of returning to the Song Dynasty and becoming slaves to the Jin people. I've had enough of it!"

At that moment, hundreds of people joined Wei Sheng's"Loyalty Army". With the support of the people of Lianshui, the Zhongyi Army marched straight to Haizhou.

The defender of Haizhou was named Gao Wenfu. He heard that Wei Sheng had occupied Lianshui, so he sent troops to arrest him.

When the troops arrived at Dayi Mountain, 80 miles south of Haizhou, they saw Wei Sheng leading the way, brandishing his sword, followed by the rest of the soldiers, charging bravely. Gao Wenfu then turned his horse and fled, retreating into the city.

There are only five to six hundred loyalists, so a forceful attack is not possible. Therefore, Wei Sheng ordered some of his warriors to detour to the seaside and pretend to land from the sea. He also ordered his subordinates to plant flags all around the city and raise fireworks to serve as suspicion.

As a result, Gao Wenfu thought that Wei Sheng had a large number of troops and was so frightened that he closed the city gate tightly. Although there were thousands of soldiers, he still did not dare to go out to fight and drove the people to the city to defend it for him.

After Wei Sheng saw this, he realized that this traitor was cowardly and unpopular, so he sent people to the city gates to publicize to the people guarding the city:"The Jin people broke their trust and betrayed their alliance, and they raised their troops without a name to invade Huainan. You are originally citizens of the Song Dynasty. , the imperial court thinks that you have been tortured by the Jin people, and has sent us here to liberate the people, regain the lost land, and punish the spies. You can open the city gate quickly and help us capture the high-ranking thieves. The loyal army will never disturb the people."

People guarding the city. He was so happy that he immediately opened the city gate to welcome Wei Sheng, and took the initiative to act as a guide and launched an attack directly on the state government office. Gao Wenfu and his son Anren led more than a thousand tooth soldiers to resist and resisted.

Wei Sheng sent dozens of brave men to climb the city tower, while he led his troops to fight Gao Anren inside Qiaomen. The loyal warriors killed Gao Anren and his minions, one against ten, and captured Gao Wenfu alive.

After the Zhongyi Army captured Haizhou, Wei Shengquan was informed of state affairs.

He sent people to inform the counties of Yuxiongshan, Huairen, Shuyang and Donghai, and they all surrendered. So he collected taxes, released prisoners, opened warehouses, helped the poor, and rewarded soldiers. The Loyalty Army has strict military discipline and is deeply supported by the people.

Wei Sheng took over the control of the capital and recruited loyal people in an attempt to regain the lost territory. Within ten days, thousands of strong men signed up. He divided his troops into five armies and reported the situation to the commanders at the border, hoping to obtain military uniforms and armor.

However, although Lan Zhizhou and others in Chuzhou knew that the Jin people would betray the alliance and invade south, they did not dare to report it because they were afraid of the power of the peace negotiators in the imperial court. As a result, Wei Sheng's loyal army could not get weapons and equipment.

In order to solve the weapons problem, Dong Cheng, the commander of the Zuo Army, prepared to attack Yizhou. Wei Sheng sent people to investigate and warned Dong Cheng:"We are not ready now, and there are tens of thousands of Jin soldiers heading to Yizhou. General, don't act rashly."

Dong Cheng was impatient and led more than a thousand people to attack Yizhou. In a fierce street battle, more than 3,000 enemies were killed and tens of thousands of weapons and armor were obtained. At this time, Jin soldiers' reinforcements arrived. Dong Cheng quickly organized manpower to carry the armor and cut off the rear in person. I saw Jin soldiers climbing onto the roof one after another, throwing bricks and tiles from a high position, beating Dong Cheng to the point where he was almost defeated. Fortunately, Wei Sheng responded in time and was able to turn the corner. Afterwards, Dong Cheng was held accountable for his unauthorized actions that caused heavy damage to the troops, and he should be punished. However, Wei Sheng thought that he was brave in battle and won the golden human weapon armor, so he allowed him to have his merits discounted.
