Chapter 349: The Song State Scandal

Wanyan Zongbi was not convinced, but Wanyan Yinshu could bring the golden wolf head token of the Dajin Emperor, in this case, if he forcibly sent troops, according to the Dajin military system, Wanyan Yinshu would receive Wanyan Zongbi's military power, unless he had the courage to rebel against the Jin State, otherwise it must be executed.

Wanyan Yinshu is very strong, he is also a first-class general, and coming to the front line is to coerce Wanyan Zongbi, obviously, Wanyan Wu Qimai is determined to hand over the task of destroying the Song Dynasty to his son Wanyan Zongqi.

Comparatively speaking, Wanyan Yinshu is more rational than Wanyan Zongbi, and he said to the fourth prince of the Jin Kingdom: "You might as well be mistaken, even if His Majesty the Emperor allows you to attack the capital of the Great Song Dynasty, only the 50,000 cavalry under your command, can you take the capital?" At the beginning, the second prince led an army of 200,000 and did not take the capital of the Great Song Dynasty, many people said that it was because of the intervention of the Han army, but in fact, without the intervention of the Han army, he still could not take Bianliang City. It was the strongest city in the world. This time, Wanyan Zongqi not only led an army of 300,000, but also brought 200,000 people, and almost brought more than half of the siege equipment of the Dajin Kingdom. In this case, the most you can send troops to fight on the periphery is to actually change nothing. ”

Wanyan Zongbi didn't know this truth, but he couldn't swallow that breath, he waved his hand and said: "There are many things you don't know, it's not a question of who fights, it's a matter of the overall situation, and it's very important for our Taizu family." ”

"You mean the battle for succession?"

"How do you know?"

Wan Yan Yinshu said with a smile: "Fourth prince, should you answer my question first?" ”

"Yes." Wanyan Zongbi felt that there was no secret at this time, in this case, it was better to find out, maybe he would win Wanyan Yinshuke's support, it was better than offending this fierce general by coveringly.

Wanyan Yinshu said with a smile: "What Mr. Han told me, I am also willing to help the fourth prince." ”

"Good." Wanyan Zongbi also thought about it, since there was no way to participate in the battle of the Song State to destroy the country, let's try to conquer the city to the maximum, after all, the battle achievements are real, and no one can take them.

After calming down, Wanyan Zongbi said: "I will lead 30,000 cavalry to attack Qingzhou, and you will lead 20,000 cavalry to attack Yunzhou." Let's finish the sweep, just keep going south, and kill wherever we can. ”

"Okay."

Wanyan Yinshu was a fanatical warmonger, he was very satisfied with Wanyan Zongbi's arrangement, and decided to take Yunzhou as quickly as possible, and then continue south.

The Jin army landed from the sea and took Jinan Mansion with lightning speed, the news exploded in the sky over the capital like a bombshell, at this time, the Great Song Emperor Zhao Gou realized that he had been fooled, and it was clear that the Jin army was asking for warships not to attack Goryeo, but to attack the Great Song Dynasty.

instigated the Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty to fight in Yunzhou, in order to completely separate the Great Song Dynasty and the Great Han Dynasty, so as to complete the attack on the Great Song Dynasty as soon as possible. This time, Zhao Gou is sober, it is obvious that this time the Jin army is definitely not only Wanyan Zongbi's way to the south, there should be other armies going south, it seems that the defense of the capital is about to kick off.

At this time, Song Gaozong Zhao Gou still showed a bloody place than his father Song Huizong Zhao Ji and his brother Song Qinzong Zhao Huan, when he knew that the Jin army was about to send troops to destroy the Song Dynasty, he did not think about suing for peace, nor did he think about escaping, but called on the world's soldiers and horses to save the king, and let Liu Guangshi and Liu Zhengyan each lead 30,000 troops out of the city to block the Jin army, to prevent the Jin army from crossing the Yellow River.

Liu Guangshi was stationed in Xiangzhou, Liu Zhengyan was stationed in Puzhou, both of these places were the only way for the Jin army to go south to Bianliang, this time, Zhao Gou was personally face-to-face, telling the two that as long as they held on for more than half a year and won time for the defense of Bianliang, they would be the heroes of the Great Song Dynasty, and they would be crowned the princes of the country.

Uncle Zhang personally led 200,000 troops to garrison the south bank of the Yellow River, and came to carry the Jin army south, knowing that as long as the Jin army crossed the Yellow River, then the next stop would be directly approaching the capital.

Miao Fu led 50,000 troops to be stationed in Zhengzhou, and Zhang Jun led 50,000 troops to be stationed in Yingtianfu, so that there were garrisons in the north direction, east and west of Bianliang City

The most important thing in the Great Song Dynasty is the source of soldiers, and what is lacking is war horses, weapons, and armor. Although there was a lot of unhappiness with the Han Dynasty, because Yunzhou also started a major war, but when the Great Song Dynasty was in danger, Zhao Gou, the emperor of the Song State, still thought of going to the Han State to seek assistance.

Assistance, it is obvious that it would be good if the Han did not take advantage of the fire to rob, Song Tianzi Zhao Gou still has self-knowledge, he did not expect the Han State to send troops to help, but just wanted the Han State to provide weapons, armor, especially firearms. As for the war horses, hehe, that's useless, there are no well-trained cavalry at all, and it's useless to ask for war horses, and besides, the war horses of the Han are not so sufficient.

Who is the right envoy to the Han Kingdom? In the end, Zhao Gou let Xiangguo Qin Hui go, which can be regarded as the most necessary respect for the Han Dynasty. Zhao Gou personally served as the generalissimo of the national soldiers and horses, and wanted to fight to the death with the Jin army in Bianliang City, and issued an edict on conscription to the whole country. Not only that, but also issued a blank check for the title of king and knighthood to the local generals, you must know that although it is a blank check, it was still very attractive in that era.

The most typical is the Wu brothers, Wu Jue, Wu Lin, these two fierce generals led 20,000 troops to Qinwang, only 20 years old Yu Yunwen, an excellent general from a literati background, was also born, not only that, even Han Shizhong also joined the team of King Qin, he and Li Xianzhong led an army of 50,000 to King Qin.

Han Shizhong's situation is a bit special, he was originally stationed in Hebei, when the Jin army swept Hebei, he led 5,000 soldiers to the west, and did not really take refuge in the Han army, and met Li Xianzhong, and married the other party's sister, the two at this time, from the northwest to the capital Bianliang, can also be regarded as the king of thousands of miles.

Wang Yan's eight-character army has at least 100,000 people, plus Meng De, Liu Ze, Jiao Wentong and others also led more than 100,000 people in 19 villages to attach, this force has become the largest part of the Qinwang team, with a total strength of more than 200,000, which looks magnificent, but in fact, in the eyes of the Jin army, they are a group of rabble.

Yang An'er, Yang Miaozhen's brothers and sisters, as well as Zhang Ruji, Fang Liang, Fang Ke and others led 100,000 people to the capital, but most of these Qinwang troops were the original bandits and grass robbers, in fact, they had no combat power, they were not recognized by the imperial court, and there was no supply of military salaries, grain and grass, and weapons.

Nearly a million soldiers and horses gathered around the capital, but the soldiers of each army did not belong to each other, and in fact, there was no unified command at all, and they did not arrive in the capital together. Arriving in the capital one after another, because the defense of the capital has not yet begun, these Qin Wang's divisions have become the biggest burden of the imperial court, and they can't get rid of it.

On August 28, the third year of Shenlong, the emperor of the Jin State Wanyan Wu begged to buy the edict to destroy the Song Dynasty, and the marshal Wanyan Xian also personally led an army of 500,000 to start a war of annihilation against the Song State. It was also on this day that Qin Hui, the governor of the Great Song Dynasty, took his wife to envoy to the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, and this time the envoy was the plenipotentiary representative of the Emperor Zhao Gou of the Great Song Dynasty.

The envoy team was unusually large, no one thought that it was mixed with the concubines of Song Qinzong, and more than 30 concubines led by Zheng Guifei were among them. This idea was come up with Qin Hui, and this guy put forward such an absurd suggestion for the smooth progress of this mission. If this scene is recorded in the history books, it will become the biggest scandal in the history of the Great Song Dynasty.

Scandals, there are few scandals in the history of the Great Song Dynasty, almost every emperor had them when he was in power, even in the era of the wise and martial Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin, and it was a scandal that could not be concealed.

Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin possessed the Empress of the Later Shu Emperor Meng Chang's Lady Hua Rui, as a result, this beautiful woman attracted Zhao Kuangyi's attention, this guy was jealous of the beauty in the arms of the eldest brother, and even shot it to death, and also called it for the sake of Jiangshan Sheji, and Zhao Kuangyin's woman was shot by her younger brother, and she had to praise her younger brother for doing well. This created a precedent for the scandal of the Great Song Dynasty, and later, when Zhao Kuangyi of Song Taizong was fortunate to be the daughter of the Tang Emperor Li Yu, Xiao Zhouhou, he also let the painter observe the painting on the spot. Later, countless, more than 20 emperors and dozens of concubines of Zhao Ji of Song Huizong arrived at the bedroom of the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, and the queen of Zhao Huan of Song Qinzong gave birth to a princess for the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty. Song Qinzong Zhao Huan also took the initiative to give Princess Yun to the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty, which is not counted, I didn't expect retribution to come, Song Gaozong Zhao Gou actually sent Song Qinzong's concubines to the imperial capital, which is a big scandal.

The Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty didn't expect that Concubine Zheng could also come to the imperial capital, so he arranged for someone to take Concubine Zheng into the palace, after all, Concubine Zheng's sister was also in the palace, and it was normal for sisters to get together. He hadn't been fortunate to Concubine Zheng for a long time, but this time, he stayed overnight, and Concubine Zheng stayed in the palace this night.

There are a lot of sad things, Qin Hui feels that he is very smart, but he didn't expect that he also wore a green hat.

Although he was the governor of the Great Song Dynasty and came to envoy on behalf of the Son of Heaven of the Great Song Dynasty, Qin Hui did not have the opportunity to meet the Son of Heaven of the Great Han Dynasty at all, but his wife, the charming Wang, had met the Son of Heaven several times, and each time he entered the palace for a long time, a long time.

Yuwen Xuzhong received Qin Hui on behalf of the Son of Heaven, and the two had a fierce quarrel, both wanting to grab the greatest benefits for their country. Qin Hui's eloquence is very good, his writing is good, and his reaction is fast, but it is a pity that he met the more difficult Yuwen Xuzhong, and he can't take advantage of it verbally at all.

In this way, the two top civil servants began negotiations that lasted for a month.

Although the process was very hard, the result was good, at least Qin Hui thought that the result was good, and after paying an extremely heavy price, he finally took away the weapons, armor, and even firearms he needed from Dahan. Qin Hui never dreamed that the negotiations would last for a month, not because Yuwen was difficult in his emptiness. It's because Wang's performance in bed is so crazy that people can't stop.

After Qin Hui left, Yuwen Xuzhong reported to the Son of Heaven.

The Emperor of the Han Dynasty was very satisfied with Yuwen Xuzhong's performance, he looked at the content of the peace talks and said: "Actually, even if Song Guo doesn't give anything, I will give these things to Song Guo." After all, now the Han army can't go out to fight against the Jin army going south, in this case, it can only win the Song army against the Jin army alone, in this case, you can help, after all, everyone is of the same ancestry. Besides, our Han also needs a buffer of one to two years, or even longer, in this case, supporting the Song State is defending our Han. In this case, you can still fight for such a big benefit, which is really indispensable. After these terms are implemented, I will officially canonize you as the prince of Xingping County. ”

The Great Han is indeed not ready for the Jin Kingdom to fight, and now he can only wait, there is one thing in this, the Great Han Emperor did not reveal it to anyone, that is, to force the strongest Great Song out. Looking at how long Zhao Gou was able to resist the Jin army after Zhao Gou became the emperor.

500,000 is already the entire strength of the Jin State, and it can be said that if 10,000 is missing, it will be difficult to replenish it in a short time. Before the Jin army was replenished, the Han Iron Cavalry had already swept the world.

What the outside world doesn't know, the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty knows that he is waiting, waiting for the time to destroy the Jin Kingdom. The war with the Jin State should be a year later, because the Marshal of the Jin State is approaching, although Liu Zhenglong does not know how Wan Yan Xian also died, but he knows that Wan Yan Xian also died in front of the Jin Emperor Wan Yan Wu begging, and the dispute between the crown princes will intensify the contradictions within the Jin State, and after Wan Yan Liang ascends the throne, the internal strife of the Jin State will be even more severe, and then Wan Yan Liang will take the throne, and the conditions for destroying the Jin State will be ripe at that time.

Although the Han is much stronger than the Song State, it is also a fact that the overall State is far inferior to the Jin State, and once the Han and Jin Dynasty fight, if the Song State stabs a knife in the back, it will definitely be a terrible nightmare, which is why the Emperor of the Han Dynasty is unwilling to rashly start a war with the Jin army.

When the Jin army sharpened its knives and could destroy the Song Dynasty in a big way at any time, the Han State was not idle, and the General Staff Headquarters formulated the Jiangnan Thunder Operation, which infiltrated the power of the Han Dynasty into every corner of Jiangnan without using force to conquer, and it was obvious that to penetrate Jiangnan, commerce came first. Why did the emperor of the Han Dynasty insist on taking Dali, that is, he needed tobacco leaves from Dali, after all, the city capital shipped from overseas was too high and not suitable for the promotion of cigarettes.

Now cigarettes only exist in the circulation of the upper class, although the profits are very large, but after all, they are a small range of circulation, and obviously they cannot achieve the role of supporting the big man, so the cigarettes can be opened to the grade, so that ordinary people can also smoke them, can really bring huge benefits. The things that can be popular in your circle, as long as the grade is lowered and the price is lowered, it will soon become popular throughout the country.
