Chapter 53: To Kill or Not to Kill?
Morale is a very strange thing, a metaphysics that Zhao Huan can't understand at all.
When the enemy is setting up a shelf at the door of his house, he can only passively defend, and the slightest movement may lead to the destruction of Bianjing City and the destruction of the country.
But after the enemy left, he didn't have so many worries about the decisive battle and the field, and even the soldiers would be less restrained in fighting.
Morale has been greatly boosted.
Shen Cong and Yue Fei were naturally the first to arrive at the Wende Palace, they lived in the imperial city, and after hearing that Yan Zongwang was leaving, Shen Cong's mood was extremely happy, and he arrived at the Wende Hall with a long roar.
Yue Fei stepped forward and followed his heels to the Wende Palace, and the joy on his face couldn't be suppressed.
Li Gang was the second to arrive, and he panted and congratulated first, after all, this elite army pressed in Bianjing City restricted the dispatch of the sergeants of the Great Song Dynasty.
And the Seed Master Dao was the last one to go to the Wende Palace, and the person who pushed him in was not the pro-officer in the bright yellow armor, but the pro-official in the black armor, which made Zhao Huan a little surprised.
"Official, the Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty has all left Bianjing City and is stationed in the military fortress of Wanyan Zongwang. Wanyan Zongwang, who walked in a hurry, did not burn down the camp, and in the military village, no trace of King Kang was found, only Li Bangyan was recovered. The planter said unhurriedly.
Zhao Huan frowned at first, and then frowned, understanding why Shidao left Bianjing City without any order.
This is the first time that the Great Song Dynasty Western Army has spoken after entering the city, and he has not said a word before, completely following any decision made by Zhao Huan.
The master is afraid that the monarch and the minister will be suspicious, and at this critical moment when the country is almost destroyed, if the monarch and the minister are suspicious, the consequence is the loss of the country. There is no second option.
Even if Wanyan Zongwang can't capture Bianjing this time, but what about the second time? And what about the third time?
And Zhao Huan asked himself, he was not a little afraid that the Seed Master Dao would suddenly raise troops into the palace, chop off his head, and ascend the throne himself?
Of course he was afraid, but after the Great Song Western Army left the city, there was no doubt.
But after the Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty left the city, Zhao Huan thought of the more than 60,000 forbidden army, and began to have a headache again, losing the only forbidden army, is he loyal to himself?
Yao Pingzhong, who commanded the envoy of Xiangdu, is undoubtedly loyal, and the 10,000 people under his command don't have to worry too much, but what about the remaining 50,000 people?
I killed two Wenchen and took advantage of the situation, will this group of Wenchen make some articles in it now?
The joy brought by the withdrawal of Wanyan Zongwang's troops diluted a little.
Zhao Huan also had a headache.
These Wenchen won't force the palace with the forbidden army, right?
Seed Master Dao saw Zhao Huan, who was frowning, and said with an old smile on his face: "The 30,000 horses of the forbidden army in front of the palace were also taken out of the city by me. Now there are only 30,000 people in the forbidden army, and Yao Pingzhong led 10,000. plus 3,000 pro-servant officials and 6,000 pro-ministers. ”
He does things, how can he leave a tail?
Although the Great Song Forbidden Army was not successful enough, it was more than an absolute defeat, how could it leave so many sergeant forces to Wenchen to confront Zhao Huan?
Yao Pingzhong's 10,000 forbidden army, but he had seen blood, fought with the Han thief army on the city wall for several days, and participated in night attacks many times, whether it was combat quality or fighting will, it was far beyond other forbidden troops.
And at least a thousand of them have participated in the Chenzhou Gate Guarding Battle, which is a solid hard battle!
The personal subordinate officials and the personal officials were originally the elite of the elite, plus Yao Pingzhong's 10,000 forbidden army, the number of people was equal, and the 20,000 forbidden army controlled by civilian officials had no chance of winning at all.
And the 20,000 forbidden troops are really completely controlled by Wenchen? There's a big question mark over that.
In terms of the performance of Li Zheng, a scholar in the middle school, the soldiers are not fools, can they give them their lives?
Zhao Huan saw Li Gang, and realized that under the operation of the Seed Master Dao, his people not only controlled 10,000 forbidden troops and 3,000 pro-servant officers and 6,000 pro-ministers, but also the key position of the arsenal.
Planter Dao! O loyal servants!
Zhao Huan sighed, the seed master Dao was seventy-five years old, from Qinfeng Road, Longyou Duhufu to Bianjing, came after a long journey, after entering the city, he did not say a word, lest the monarch and ministers be suspicious, the Jin soldiers retreated out of the city as soon as possible, and took away a large number of useless, but may bury mines of the forbidden army.
"I have decided to pursue the Golden Soldiers! There was Zong Ze blocking the road in front, and the western army of Shaobao in the back was catching up, attacking back and forth, and defeating Yan Zongwang's troops in one fell swoop, even if they couldn't completely annihilate the Jin soldiers of Zongwang's department, they had to win the battle, so that they were unable to support Yan Zonghan! It was not until this time that Zhao Huan's original thoughts were complete.
The night attack dispersed the Han thief army and prevented it from attacking the city.
After the Western Army entered the city, it was like gambling, making the Western Army its biggest reliance, completing the control of the court and the deterrence of Wenchen, and using the city to train the forbidden army.
Delaying for half a month, the Western Song Army with a new crossbow defeated the Zongwang army, and galloped to the aid of Taiyuan, if Zongwang retreated, the decisive battle with the wild!
If Zong Wang and Zong Han join forces, Taiyuan will be too dangerous.
"Official, when Wanyan Zongwang retreated, he left behind more than 30,000 Han thief troops and about 30,000 captives, all of whom were women and children, how should I deal with them?" After the Western Army left the city, the Planter Dao spoke more.
Zhao Huan weighed it a little and said: "The Han thief army is all used as horsemen, responsible for the transportation of grain and grass for the army, women and children are included in the labor relief prison, workshops, city wall repairs, road widening, house repairs, these jobs can be assigned to them." ”
"This time, not only is it to take care of the meal, but you can give some wages and ask Sun Bo to hand over a notebook. Let's pay for it first. ”
There were rats running in the treasury, and the money was brought to Jiangnan by Zhao Ji! This guy never forgets money.
"The Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty opened overnight, followed by the Jin soldiers, although most of the Jin people were horse soldiers, but they carried a large number of baggage and looted gold and silver treasures, and the speed was not necessarily faster than that of the Western Army." Zhao Huan said.
The army that loses grain and grass is not an army at all, and the Jin people who lose their grain are like tigers without teeth.
"The minister commands." Seed Master Dao said, he is already so old, of course it is impossible to go to the battlefield in person, the current commander of the seed army has a total of three, and one person can control 20,000 soldiers and horses.
Yue Fei looked left and right and said, "Your Majesty, please fight!" Most of the decisive chariots are trained among the officers, and the Western Army is elite, but they are not very familiar with the method of chariots, and they are willing to lead the guilty army and go to the front line to fight. ”
Yue Fei's decision was completely based on the idea of being responsible for his subordinates.
Sin Army, is that a nice word? Apparently not.
Are these officials really rebelling?
was coerced into the imperial city by Zhao Kai and the next commander at that time, and many people threw their weapons into the river.
Zhao Huan ...... silently
The inner thoughts of these 6,000 relatives were to kill them all.
No king can forgive the sin of treason.
Zhao Huan's heart had been hesitating before, completely because of the butcher's knife in one fell swoop, with 6,000 heads, the psychological impact on him was too great.
Moreover, at that time, the Jin soldiers were besieging the city, and the killing of the soldiers affected morale, so it was kept closed.
Now that the Jin soldiers have retreated, it should be difficult to deal with the old man of the family affairs thoroughly.
So when the Seed Master Dao was pushed in by a family official, Zhao Huan was a little surprised.
Now this elite army of 6,000 people, how is it good?
He is very short of people now, it is a pity that this kind of elite killing, if he does not kill, I am afraid that he will not be able to deter the rebellious heart of the world.
Just when Zhao Huan was hesitating, Sun Bo suddenly ran in from outside the hall in a hurry, panting and holding a notebook and saying, "Your Majesty's big thing is not good!" It's a big deal! Emperor Taishang was once again in charge of Yingtianfu. ”
"The Emperor Taishang is fortunate to be in Bozhou, and the ministers and magnates do not care about the national victims, and they all beg to drive and send their families away. The rest of the families of hundreds of officials went, and the attendants fled from Shangshu, such as Zhang Quan, Wei Zhongda, He Dagui and other 56 people. Tong Guan, Cai Jing, Zhu Mian and others are all around. ”
"Your Majesty, the Emperor Taishang also blocked the soldiers of King Qin from all over the country, all of them belonged to the Emperor Taishang, controlling nearly one million, and the southeast land, thousands of miles of fertile fields, thousands of counties and counties, all the capitals are needed, all of them are needed, the Emperor Taishang has already set up a new court on his own, Your Majesty, how is it good?"
Zhao Huan had long known that this Zhao Ji was afraid that he would set up another imperial court, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.
said that he was going to Shuzhong, and after a while, he ran to the south to stand up for himself.
Tsk, this Zhao Ji is really interesting! Turn in like the wind!
Sun Bo put the zizi up and said, "The Emperor Taishang made a poem, please look at it." ”
"Go across the water and through the mountains, and chant more than a thousand poems. Huaibo is cold and heavy and the rain is sparse. On the heron on the smoke cage beach, people buy boat fish. The ancient temple has the right to live in the secluded room, and sleeps in the monk's residence late at night. The Dream Soul was startled and groaned. Worried about my heart, and tears to write back to the book. Zhao Huan read it.
This Zhao Ji, this poem is well written, but it's too shameless!
