"When the foot of the river, Xi Ying's omen, the crown is thousands of miles above, the north gate of the hidden Yaran, and I am strong."

As a military town on the north of the Yellow River and the Hebei Plain, it controls a large area of territory north of the Yellow River, guards the passage of crossing the Yellow River in the south and leading directly to the capital Bianliang.

The Daimyo Mansion is located in Hebei East Road, west of Taihang Mountain, east of Qilu, south of the Central Plains, north of Youyan. Fucheng is built on the east bank of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, west of the Yellow River, for the north-south water and land transportation of the main point.

The Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal in the Sui Dynasty enabled the products of the north and south of the Great Song Dynasty to be transported through Cao, and the goods were connected to the north and south, creating the status of the commercial metropolis of the Daimyofu. Since the Tang Dynasty's "Kaiyuan Dynasty", the Daimyo's Mansion has been the most prosperous place on Hebei Road and the hub of water transportation. By the end of the Tang Dynasty and the fifth dynasty, the Daimyo Mansion was the premier capital in the north, far exceeding Taiyuan.

During the Song Dynasty, in order to resist the southern invasion of the northern Khitan, the Daimyo Mansion was promoted to the capital of Bianliang, Tokyo - Beijing Daimyo's Mansion. In the second year of the Qingli calendar of Song Renzong (1042 AD), it was designated as Beijing. Under the auspices of Prime Minister Lu Yijian, the outer city of the old city was renovated, the palace was added, and hundreds of officials were placed, so that the palace was as large as the city of Tokyo, and became a natural barrier in the north to defend Kyoto.

In the outer city of the Daimyofu 48 miles, there are 9 gates and 2 water gates. The circumference of the palace city is 3 miles, 4 halls and 7 gatehouses in the city, 4 compartments and 23 squares outside the city, and the three gates in the south are called Nanhe, South Brick, Drum Horn Gate; two gates on the north side, named Beihe and Beizhuanmen; There are two gates on the east side, named Guanshi and Chaocheng Gate; The two gates in the west, named Wei County and Guanyin Gate, "are slightly like the capital".

The Daimyo's Mansion is large-scale, with the Yellow River and the Yongji Canal in the west, and the city is high and dangerous, and the trench is wide and deep. Hebei West Road, Hebei East Road Administration and pacification envoys were all stationed in this city, and once governed three prefectures, eleven prefectures, five armies, a total of 57 counties.

And now, such a "Dongjun shares, the key to the north gate", "the king has to think that the king, the overlord has to be the hegemon, and the cunning is to make the world uneasy", with a population of one million, a treasure of nature, prosperous to the house, and a precipitous and extremely dangerous northern city, because of the cowardice of the Great Song Dynasty monarchs, it will be given to the Jin people in vain.

It's tolerable, it's unbearable!

Could it be that this is the so-called enchanting and romantic of the Great Song Dynasty?

A team of ironclad knights docked on the east bank of the canal, and Huang Zhen, the ambassador of Hebei Road, surrounded by the knights, followed the official road and headed north.

In view of the fact that the previous envoy of land cession was killed, this time Huang Yi learned to be obedient, and he went all the way along the canal directly to the north, and the destination was the Daimyo's Mansion. As for the other military towns in Hebei, he was ready to judge the situation and take advantage of the situation. If there is any danger, the itinerary will be changed immediately, and there will be no danger.

Along the way, he secretly scolded Zhao Ji in his heart, and Emperor Song's actions obviously didn't want him to go back.

I thought that after marrying Zhao Duofu, the emperor's relatives and relatives, I could enjoy all the glory and wealth, but who knew that Zhao Duofu couldn't touch it, and he was sent to Hebei to do this murderous deed.

The crowd hadn't gone far, and the majestic walls of the Daimyo's Mansion were just ahead.

"Puff", several feather arrows roared and shot on the ground one step away in front of Huang Zhen, dusty.

"Who is here, you can know that this Daimyo Mansion is already the land of my Dajin Kingdom. If you rush forward again, you will be killed! ”

A group of Jurchen rangers came from a whirlwind from afar, each armed with a horned bow or a blade, and surrounded the crowd in the middle like a marquee. A Jurchen knight held a riding spear close to two feet in his hand, less than two inches away from Huang Zhen's front door, and the cold air on the tip of the spear made Huang Zhen's hairs stand on end.

"General, don't do it!"

The sweat on Huang Zhen's face flowed down, and he replied in a trembling voice: "I am the envoy of the Song Emperor, and I went to the Daimyo's Mansion to send the edict of the Song and Jin Peace Proposals. Please also ask the general to give way, so that he can go and announce the edict, so that the warriors of the Dajin Kingdom can take over the city more quickly. ”

"What Song Jin, it's obviously Jin Song!"

The Jurchen officer next to him shook his hand with a whip, whipped Huang Zhen on the back, and scolded in blunt Chinese: "You Song dog, you dare to put the Song Kingdom in front of my Great Jin Dynasty, it's really a dog's guts, a dog's guts!"

He lashed several times in a row, Huang Zhen protected his face, screamed in pain, and accidentally fell from his horse and fell to the ground.

The Song army officer next to him stepped forward, pointed at the Jurchen officer with a horse whip, and shouted angrily: "You guy, why are you whipping my envoy of the Song Kingdom, don't you stop quickly!"

With a "poof", the Song Army officer's voice had just fallen, and his neck had been pierced by the Jurchen knight's riding spear. He stared blankly at the fierce-looking Jurchen knight in front of him, and slowly planted himself from his horse.

The Song soldiers in the back looked at each other, and the two Song soldiers dismounted and helped Huang Zhen, who was pale and trembling, up.

The Jurchen knight with the spear still wanted to kill, but the sound of horses' hooves came not far away, and everyone turned their heads.

A group of Jurchen knights, all in iron armor, gathered together to embrace a Jurchen nobleman wearing silver armor, a light ermine collar and a burly appearance, coming from the bank of the canal.

When they got closer, the Jurchen knights on the horse saluted together. The Jurchen knight hurriedly said: "Liduo, I waited for the camp to patrol and met these Song people, so I stepped forward to investigate."

The Jurchen military orders were strict, and when these golden soldiers saw the appearance of the commander, they were all terrified.

The name of the Jurchen is Wanyan Zongfu, the third son of Jin Taizu Wanyan Aguta, and the Jurchen name is Liduo, who is the commander of the Jin People's Middle Route Army attacking the Song Dynasty.

Seeing the Song soldiers in front of him surrounding a Song official, and there was a corpse of the Song army on the ground, Wanyan Zongfu frowned and said, "You Song people, is there something wrong?"

Seeing that the Jin general in front of him had a noble status and a kind attitude, not as rude as those Jurchen knights, Huang Zhen hurriedly stepped forward and saluted.

"This nobleman, Xiaguan is a messenger sent by the Song Emperor to read the edicts of the Jin Song Dynasty and the edicts of the Song Dynasty in various parts of Hebei, and he has seen the nobleman."

Wanyan Zongfu understood, nodded and said, "It seems that it was a misunderstanding, please get on the horse, and I will ask the soldiers to escort you and others."

He already knew about the Song Jin peace conference, and Wanyan Zongbi had already sent someone to inform him of the content of the peace conference. For these faint monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty, they can deceive, they can deceive, anyway, these guys are as timid as rats, and they are at both ends of the first mouse, as long as they use some means, they can always get unexpected surprises from these guys.

Daimyofu, an important town in Hebei, led the army to attack for more than half a month, with countless casualties, but he was stunned and did not capture it.

The Song army in the city was guarded by Zhang Jun, and the Song army under him was quite numerous and very strong. Especially the Song generals under his command were all brave and unsuitable, and the Jurchen warriors climbed the city wall several times, but they were all defeated by their army.

Especially that Yue Fei, whether it is personal force or the deployment of troops, he is the best choice, which is really a headache.

The Song and Jin peace talks have been concluded, and maybe the Daimyo Mansion will be able to capture them without much effort.

Huang Zhen said goodbye to Wanyan Zongfu, got on his horse tremblingly, followed behind a group of Jurchen knights, and headed towards the north gate of the Daimyo's Mansion.

The majestic and neat and continuous Jurchen camp, the tiger and wolf warriors with iron armor, hideous faces, and full of anger, marched forward with yellow straw beating horses, and sweat was dripping on their foreheads. The entourage of the forbidden army behind him was also pale, and their heads were lowered a little. All the soldiers were sweating profusely, breathing rapidly, and they wanted to get out of the Jurchen camp earlier.

How could these Ru Mao blood-drinking, cave-dwelling barbarians in the wilderness, how could the weak Song people fight with them!

Seeing the Huang Zhen and Song soldiers passing by, their faces were pale, and the Jurchen generals in the camp were all pointing and pointing, and laughed loudly.

Huang Zhen and a group of Song soldiers, their heads pressed even lower, and they couldn't wait to get into the soil.

finally got out of the Jurchen camp, and everyone breathed a long sigh of relief, and the pressure in their hearts plummeted.

As we got closer to the city wall, we could see corpses, bloodstains, weapons, and military flags all over the ground. The tragic situation of severed limbs and corpses shocked Huang Zhen and others, Huang Zhen's face was bloodless, and his body trembled involuntarily.

The corpses under the city wall are stacked on top of each other, and the death forms are different and terrifying. The walls were full of smoke and blood, and many of the battlements at the head of the city were broken, and the marks of swords and axes were still there, apparently after many days of hard fighting.

The Jurchen knights looked at these submissive cowards with disdain, and before they had crossed the moat, they snorted coldly in their nostrils and beat their horses away.

The city of Nancheng was full of Song soldiers, and when they saw Huang Zhen and others coming, they all opened their eyes wide and looked at the city.

No one knows, at this time, what are these people doing here?

Yue Fei stood on the Nanhe Gate, looked at Huang Zhen and his party under the city wall, frowned slightly, and the sergeant on the city wall shouted loudly.

"Whoever is below, get out of here quickly. The sword and gun have no eyes, and Hugh will lose his life in vain!"

Facing the Song soldiers in the city, Huang Zhen and his party instantly regained their spirits, and the officers around Huang Zhen scolded loudly.

"You bastard, Hugh is rude! This is the envoy of the imperial court, Huang Zhen, the commander of the horses, who came to read the edict, why don't you open the city gate quickly and let me wait in!"

Yue Fei was startled, waved his hand, and the sergeant put down the basket. Huang Zhen put the letter in, and the soldier pulled the basket up.

After a while, the sergeant above poked his head out and shouted downward, "Don't blame the envoy. It was wartime, and the city gates were not easy to open. Wronged and respectful, the lower officials can only pull you up to the city. ”

Huang Zhen was helpless, stopped the forbidden army shouting and screaming behind him, stepped into the basket that was put down, and the soldiers worked together to pull Huang Zhen up.

The forbidden soldiers went to the city one by one, all of them were dissatisfied, as if they did not open the city gates, and dragged them with hanging baskets, which humiliated their noble status.

Niu Tong came up, took off the heads of several Jurchen soldiers from the city wall, and threw them at the feet of the forbidden soldiers.

"Just now in the Fanzi camp, I have lost the face of the Song people, so be honest now, don't play tricks again. Could it be that your necks are harder than these?"

Huang Zhen's heart was shocked, and he said angrily: "We are the top of the imperial court, and we are here to handle the delivery matters." You rude soldiers, Hugh's arrogance. Do you really not know that the law is strict?"

As soon as Huang Zhen's words fell, Dong Xian stepped forward, grabbed the edict, opened it and read it.

"Dong Xian, don't be rude!"

Yue Fei and the others already knew the contents of the edict, and he was afraid that Dong Xian would be angry, so his brain was hot and he tore up the edict.

"Yue Dutong, as a soldier of the loyal army, should protect his family and defend the country, and now the two rivers have become the land of the golden people, where is the home, where is the country? Handed over the Daimyo's Mansion to the Jin people, what face do we have to face the people of Hebei and the people of the world? ”

Although he was furious, he still did not tear up the edict, but still threw it back to Huang Zhen.

Huang Zhen hurriedly picked it up and put it in his arms tremblingly.

Niu Tong understood from the sidelines and laughed.

"What a land cession ambassador, a good Song court, and a good Song emperor! Cutting land and paying compensation, losing power and humiliating the country, can really be called the glory of the ancestors, the glory of the ancestors! ”

The soldiers at the head of the city were all pale as dirt, and everyone was dejected. No one thought that the imperial court would really cut the two rivers to the Jin people.

"Tie them up and throw them down into the city!"

One of the sergeants roared loudly.

"Yes, get out of town!"

A group of soldiers rushed forward, and the momentum was violent. Huang Zhen and the others were pale and huddled together.

"Presumptuous!"

Yue Fei shouted loudly, his face pale.

"The military regulations of the loyal and righteous army, anyone who gathers a crowd to make trouble, will be killed! Do you really want to disobey military regulations?"

Yue Fei had a very high prestige in the army, and when he shouted, the soldiers immediately quieted down.

Everyone is uncomfortable in their hearts, the great rivers and mountains are going to be cheap for nothing, it is tolerable, which is unbearable.
