Zhu Shengfei and other Cai Jing's henchmen blindly engaged in further aggravating the Song crisis, and this chain consequence will not be mentioned for the time being. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Let's say that Gao Yu hurriedly returned to the capital from his brother Gao Feng's strong illness and successfully turned the crime into a success, and he had no heart, but he fell ill when he was relieved, and the frightened pain and pain left by the torture in Mizhou continued to attack, the wound was inflamed, the fever continued, and he fell into a high fever from time to time, and Gao Yu was tossed to the point that he was neither dead nor light, and he had no heart to take care of the forbidden army.

Bai Juzhong benefited from it.

The high treatment of nearly one million forbidden troops in the capital and the huge consumption have always been a huge burden on the state finances, and naturally a huge pressure on the prime minister.

Feeding so many troops that didn't really do much, Cai Jing was also pressed to a sense of breathlessness when he was in power, and he often had resentments in private. Bai Juzhong's ability to govern the country and manage money is poor, Cai Jing is several streets away, and he is in the position under the condition that the Jianghuai Jiangnan fiscal and tax areas have been hit hard, and he is even more incapable of shouldering such a huge military expenditure in the capital.

Therefore, Bai Juzhong did not have the slightest interest in the forbidden army to make up for the losses.

Without these 400,000 troops who eat for nothing and consume their finances, the burden on the state will be reduced a lot, and the ruling will be relatively easy and calm.

The weak-hearted emperor Zhao Ji was naturally anxious to replenish the forbidden army to guard his safety.

Bai Juzhong successfully pushed off the restoration of the old system of 800,000 forbidden troops on the grounds that there were still 400,000 troops stationed in the capital, and the pirates were unable to attack and the capital was safe enough.

Without the pressure of the emperor and the rapid restoration of the forbidden army by Gao Yu, the head of the great resistance, Bai Juzhong would be much more comfortable in dealing with the conscription and urging plan drawn up by the privy envoy and the Ministry of War.

In fact, the Baekju Center does not want to restore the size of nearly one million soldiers in the Gyeonggi area, and does not want to carry a heavy financial burden.

Too many troops are useless, he thinks that 400,000 is enough to defend the capital and contain the border army.

As for saying that the huge Beijing army will deter the western army from rioting and rebelling, all the officials of the DPRK and China who have a little knowledge have long known it, and that is just a joke.

A large number of soldiers is not a force. Elite is fundamental.

If it is a life-and-death contest between the Beijing army and the Western Army, let alone 800,000, it is not twice as much, and it is not the opponent of the six divisions of the Western Army that have been refined in flesh and blood for many years.

This kind of understanding is very clear in the hearts of the scholars and doctors, and they also know that "sinking soldiers, sinking officials, and sinking expenses" is a stubborn disease that is very likely to end the rule.

These elite bureaucrats of the Song Dynasty were not useless straw bales, talented and insightful, but their talent and spirit were not used to benefit the country and the people.

In this way, why are you raising so many Beijing troops for nothing? Do you have enough manpower for personal gain? Or is it to spend money and food for the sake of good looks, and increase the pressure on officials to govern the country?

The Beijing army is enough. To contain the western army, it is necessary to rely on sand seepage and scholar management to choke the frontier government affairs and finances to achieve the goal.

In the past, there was no way to reduce the established establishment of the forbidden army. The emperor couldn't pass that pass in the first place.

It's good now. The Beijing army was reduced by half at once. The rest is just what is needed. If you can train the rest of the Beijing army well, it will definitely be enough to calm the country and the country.

The principal officials of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China (DPRK) and the Central People's Republic of China (DPRK) and the Central People's Republic of China (DPRK) and the Central People's Republic of China (DPRK) and the DPRK and the Central Committee of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China (DPRK) and the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China (DPRK) and the DPRK and the Central Committee of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China (DPRK) and the DPRK and the I'm afraid that you won't be able to train even the 400,000 Beijing troops.

Gao Yu had a ghost in his heart, but in fact, he didn't dare to play a majestic toss at this time if he was not sick, so he simply pretended to be powerless and did not destroy the calculations of the scholars.

Zhao Yue's plundering plan taught the wayward and arrogant emperor Zhao Ji and the Manchu Dynasty too comfortable and energetic bureaucrats who were rampant in infighting, making the eldest brother's position in the Song Dynasty more and more dangerous but difficult to stabilize, and he was more stable in a short period of time, and had time to calmly arrange for retreat, and achieved the strategic goal. And Da Song was traumatized and frightened, but it was not all bad.

Following the heavy burden of the million-dollar army composed of displaced people, the number of soldiers in Beijing was reduced by hundreds of thousands, which further greatly reduced the problem of sinking soldiers. The pirates and the Halal mountain rogue jointly caused a huge vacancy of officials in dozens of state capitals, so that too many of the Great Song Dynasty could not afford their real duties, and they could only fight inwardly and fight horizontal cannons, specifically obstructing and sabotaging others to do practical things, so as to show that there were local arrangements for the existence of idle food and floating officials who were to seize profits, and the problem of sinking officials that the Great Song Dynasty could not solve for a long time was almost completely solved at once.

The corresponding sinking problem has also been greatly alleviated.

The bloated and stagnant Great Song Dynasty was like a patient who was dying of huge obesity and unexpectedly lost weight all of a sudden, and his body was relaxed, refreshed, rejuvenated, and vigorous.

The capital has returned to the surface of harmony, tranquility and prosperity, and many key official positions have been vacated due to personnel turmoil, and the officialdom has continued to compete for power and profit and focus on internal fighting.

Go back and look back to the North.

Qingzhou.

When Gao Yu fled back to the capital from Yizhou, a strange army half of the officers and soldiers was equipped with standard bows, arrows and shields, and half of the people were armed.

They are the Peach Blossom Mountain bandits led by Zhu Wannian and Long Hubiao's uncle and nephew.

I wish Wan Nian this person is not simple, Wu has the super-first-class force to compete with Qin Ming of Thunderbolt Fire, and Wen has the talent to govern the army and command the army, at least it is not a problem to command 10,000 thieves.

He chose to start the operation at this time, because he had already planned to leave Qingzhou, which was no longer suitable for survival, and the objective reason was that he was finally healed from the back injury caused by the Qilin brothers of the Liu family who were seeking revenge.

In summer, injuries are prone to inflammation and are extremely difficult to recover. The medical conditions in Taohuashan are poor. I wish Wannian was infected, had a fever repeatedly, and narrowly escaped several times, but I finally survived.

It stands to reason that Zhu Wannian should have an epiphany of life and death, should repent of the deep sins of the Zhu family, apologize to the many unjust souls who died at the hands of the Zhu family, should become kind and tolerant, do not remember hatred, and strive to be a good person who is beneficial to the society in exchange for the society's forgiveness of the Zhu family and let the family get a new life.

On the contrary, Zhu Wannian came back to life, but thought that God was deliberately taking care of him, feeling that he was lucky, and it was also a chance for God to give the Zhu family a chance to survive and develop and prosper again.

From Qingzhou to Cangzhou to retaliate against Zhao Zhuang, I wish Wannian is not so arrogant.

Due to the limitations of the backward era of information circulation and the isolation of being rejected by society as a robber, he did not know that Cangzhou was also looted by pirates, and that Zhao Zhuang, the hometown of Cangzhao, was unprecedentedly "empty and easy to deceive".

He knew very well that although there were still more than 9,000 bandits under his command who dared to fight and kill, and they were also equipped with many sophisticated officers and soldiers, they still wanted to die if they dared to go to Cangzhou to make trouble.

As long as he dares to go to Cangzhou, the long march process has alarmed Zhao Gonglian, even if the Cangzhou army and Zhao Zhuang do not deal with each other, they will not stretch out their hands, but the Qianning army in the north will definitely go south to kill.

With Zhao Gonglian's courage and courage, he knew that his hometown was in trouble, and he would not care about the rule that the imperial court would strictly restrict the local army, especially the border army, not to send troops across the border without a will. If the Cangzhou army doesn't care about the thieves and criminals, then the Cangbei army will definitely take care of it.

Zhao Gonglian and the Qianning Army will manage it confidently, not only not guilty, but also blame Cangzhou, so that Zheng Juzhong Cangzhou bureaucrats will not be unlucky, at least not embarrassed.

The key is that the Qianning Army is not the turtle waste that only retreated to the city in the past to watch the robbers loot wantonly.

The commander of the army is the former Western Army's brave generals, and his subordinates are brave generals who are full of confidence and meritorious service to kill the enemy, and tens of thousands of soldiers who have killed the courage, bloody morale and loyalty, and there are cavalry armed, and it is only a matter of time to take a nap from the Qianning military defense area hundreds of miles away to Cangzhou, and the peach blossom bandits are impossible to block the cavalry of the border army.

In this situation, what is even worse is that Cangzhou is really not a place where thieves are rampant.

There is only one salt mountain in Cangzhou, which is considered a decent mountain, and there are many rivers in the jurisdiction, and there are no convenient geographical conditions for bandits to hide guerrillas. When the bandit armies, who are rampant in their minds and live for a while, and the elite border army who are brave, well-trained, the most well-equipped, and have the combat experience of large legions, there is no need to think about the consequences. At that time, not to mention whether the nine thousand bandits can escape for their lives, it is a question of whether the four uncles and nephews can survive.

Zhu Wannian still set his eyes on the side of Liangshan that had been set earlier.

Liang Shan is easy to bully, even if there are some business guards, how can they compete with nearly 10,000 bandits?

The uncle and nephew of the Zhu family also know: The state capitals around Liangshanbo have a lot of troops, a total of tens of thousands, but they are vulnerable, and they don't have the courage and power to help Liangshan, and they won't help, but I'm afraid that Cangzhao will be unlucky in this rich fulcrum in Liangshan, so I can take the opportunity to reach out and grab benefits.

Dongchang Mansion to the east of Liangshanbo, Dongping Mansion to the north, and Puzhou, a small state farther to the south, the generals of the army were all rotten generals of the former border army who were driven away from Cangbei by Zhao Gonglian.

These generals may not lack the ability to fight and lead the army, but they are greedy for life and afraid of death, and they just want to be rich and safe, and they are embarrassed and transferred to the mainland, although they still have the right to sit on one side, but the future is hopeless, and they have cut off the border and financial routes, all of them hate Zhao Gonglian and his Cangzhao family to the core, how can they ignore grudges and grudges, generously and selflessly risk supporting Liangshan in crisis.

Not only did the generals hate Liangshanbo so much, but the prefect of Dongchang Mansion was also the prefect of the former Cangbei Xin'an Army.

The Great Song Dynasty has been a well-off scholar for hundreds of years, and he ruled the world with scholars. The spoiled scholar doctor is not an ordinary willful, but the group that loves to care about personal grievances and holds grudges the most.

When Tian Shizhong was in power in charge of the Xin'an Army, he wanted money, power, and power, and he wanted a great political backer, but his originally good future was cut off by Zhao Gonglian......

This is the most hateful Zhao Gonglian, and he can't wait to have the opportunity to stomp on the Zhao family and go straight to the Nine Hells and make a handful of it.

The remaining state capitals around Yangsanbo, such as Yanju to the north of Dongchangfu, Yunju to the south, and Shuaisiji on Tokyo West Road to the west, are also the closest to Yangsan, and Jeju Province, which has the greatest jurisdiction over Yangsanbo. The civil and military officials of these state capitals have more or less benefited from the prosperity of Liangshan commerce, at least the officials are relaxed, and the taxes are guaranteed, because the Liangshan commercial guard has always been strong in cracking down on robbers and gangsters, and does not allow evil forces to threaten the environment in this area, there are few thieves in the jurisdiction of the nearby state capital, and there are bright achievements over the years, and the bureaucrats have no contradictions with Liangshan on the surface, and there seems to be friendship and even collusion, but in fact, they are secretly greedy for Zhao's wealth, and they did not dare to reach out because of Zhao Gonglian's favored ministers.

Today, however, the situation is different.

The emperor obviously revealed his evil thoughts about Cangzhao, and personally arranged to attack the foundation of Cangzhao, and even abandoned or even completely eliminated Zhao Gonglian to cut off the threat.

It is only to blame that Zhao Gonglian's unique achievements and leading talents in governing the country have been too dazzling in recent years, and the limelight has completely overshadowed the generals of the Western Army, who are most powerful in the overall army but lack dazzling military exploits, and the influence and appeal of the people of the Great Song Dynasty are becoming stronger and more obvious, and they have simply become the only leader candidate to lead the Han people to maintain their dignity and ensure the prosperity and strength of the country, and they have vaguely become the spiritual leader of the Han people.

From the emperor to the scholars, they have always been keen to ruthlessly attack the courtiers with outstanding military achievements, and they will never give up if they don't kill them, drive them crazy and stink, and never give up, how can Zhao Gonglian, who is a great threat to the civil and military wizards, have the potential to replace the royal family, and the threat is greater?

Clear-sighted people know that the end of Zhao Gonglian has come, even if it is indispensable due to the objective situation, no one can replace its importance, and it is a matter of time before bad luck happens.

Since the general trend of Cangzhao has gone and the defeat is imminent, then the bureaucrats are not to snatch the wealth of Cangzhao, but to conform to the emperor's wishes, maintain political correctness, and will not be friendly to Liangshan.

What's more, Yunzhou Zhizhou and the general Xiao Zhang Fei Daniel Zhang also had direct military conflicts with Liangshan before, suffered dumb losses, formed hatred, and were all Cai Jing's people.

Cai Jing regarded Zhao Gonglian as the biggest and most terrible political opponent, and he could get rid of him as soon as possible. The Cai Dang people naturally have to follow the master's thoughts and actions.

The uncle and nephew of the Zhu family were intent on taking revenge on Cangzhao, and they were highly concerned about the situation of Liangshan, the first target of the attack, and they could not understand the truth about Liangshan, which was 800 miles deep and had extremely strict precautions, and they also disdained the civilian armed forces that existed in Liangshan, a commercial production and transit station, but they had a thorough understanding of the situation of the government around Liangshanbo, and they had a clear analysis and mastery.

In addition, Zhu Wannian and Erlongshan Chaogai, Hebei Tianhu, Huaixi Wang Qing, and Jiangnan La, like the terrifying pirates, actually had the strong strength to land on a large scale and shake the Great Song Army.

Shocked and frightened, the uncle and nephew of the Zhu family, who lacked knowledge of overseas, wondered: Could it be that there are so many overseas islands, such a large area, and such conditions that are conducive to people's settlement and survival, but there is a lack of people to occupy them?

They are even more full of longing for the matter of going overseas to seize the island and claim the king Xiaoyao, but they are also soberly aware that the pirates are too powerful and difficult to provoke, and if they risk losing the unfamiliar overseas blind enclosure, they are afraid that they will call Wang Xiaoyao and kill themselves.

One of the ideas that pirates have fully demonstrated this time is that overseas territories do not want sinful people to live. Independence is obviously not allowed by the tyrannical pirates.

Bandit leaders like them, who are bloody, bloody, and sinful, are the pirates' priority targets.

Therefore, Zhu Wannian sensibly put down the idea of fleeing overseas to claim the king and establish the immortal foundation of the Zhu family, and made a determination to seize the Liangshan foundation of Cangzhao, seize the wealth, occupy the suitable water, and then make every effort to strengthen the power, and strive not to seize the country and ascend the throne as the emperor in the process of the death of the Song Dynasty that is visible to the discerning people, and to become the ruler of the new dynasty, but also to at least become the princes of the land and open the road of the Zhu family's power.
