Chapter 555: Gain and Loss (Ask for Subscription!) )
…
At the beginning of April of the fifth year of Xuanhe, Wanyan Zongwang sent an envoy from Nanjing (Pingzhou) of the Jin State to find Tan Zhi in the Xuanfu Division of Hedong of the Song State and asked for 200,000 Hu of military rations.
The envoy said, "This is what the former Xuanfu Department had promised. ”
Tan Shu is very embarrassed by this!
Now the life of the Song Kingdom is not easy.
Last year, there was a drought in Qin and Feng, and there was a hunger in Hebei, Jingdong, and Huainan, and several places needed relief.
That's it, the key is Yandi.
Yandi has been war-torn for a long time, so that Yanmin has not farmed for several years, and unlike Yundi, it has been occupied by Shuibo Liangshan for more than a year, so it has recuperated for more than a year - Shuibo Liangshan has only occupied Yandi for a few months, and it is from the first month to March and April, and there is no way to persuade farmers.
Today, Yandi has become a hard-hit area, and all the food and materials needed have to be transported from Hebei, Hedong and Shandong.
For this reason, the Song Dynasty edicted hundreds of thousands of people in Xijing, Huai, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Hu, Sichuan, Fujian, Guangzhou and other places (those who want to be exempted from transfer must pay 30 yuan per husband, and violators will be subject to military law. Transporting grain and materials to Yandi.
But the problem is that so many people transfer people from the south to the north to eat horses, which is itself a huge consumption, and because Zhao Ji uses non-people, the use of millions of people to transport grain is very poorly organized, which leads to the fact that they have to consume ninety percent of the grain transported by these millions of people on the road, and only one percent can be transported to Yandi.
Moreover, because the young and strong people from Xijing, Huai, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Hu, Sichuan, Fujian, Guangzhou, and other places were recruited as people's husbands, many places in Xijing, Huai, Zhejiang, Jiang, Hu, Sichuan, Fujian, Guangzhou, and other places were no longer cultivated.
The grain that Song Guo had spent so much effort to bring was naturally precious, so Tan Zhi was really reluctant to lend it to Wanyan Zongwang, so he replied: "200,000 grains are not so easy to get. Besides, since I came to the Xuanfu Division, I have never seen a single word on the piece of paper that promised to lend you military rations, so this matter is very difficult to handle. ”
The envoy explained: "The matter of borrowing grain was personally agreed to by Zhao Zhige, the envoy of the noble dynasty, in April last year. ”
As soon as Tan Zhi heard that it was Zhao Liangsi who agreed verbally, he said angrily: "How can a verbal promise be relied upon?" Then you go to Zhao Liangsi and ask for it. ”
The country of Jin is indeed short of food now.
Over the years, the Jin Kingdom has been fighting, and it was not good at management and construction before, if it wasn't for the continuous battles and the successes that grabbed a lot of things, the Jin Kingdom would have collapsed long ago.
But in the past two years, although Jin Guo is also fighting, the territory has not been able to expand again, which has led to a significant decrease in Jin Guo's income.
However, in the past two years, the valley has not been reached, and the famine among the people is serious, so that there is a tragic situation of cannibalism.
Therefore, Wanyan Zongwang sincerely hoped that Tan Zhi could borrow him some food.
Unexpectedly, Tan Zhi actually pushed 265 and didn't recognize what the predecessor Xuanfu had promised.
Wanyan Zongwang's attitude towards Tan Zhi was extremely angry!
Wanyan Zongwang felt that the Song State had repeatedly gone back on his word and kept teasing them the Jurchens, and it was impossible for a neighbor like this to become a friendly neighbor, and the Song State should be taught a good lesson.
In mid-July, under the secret instruction of the Jin State, the Western Xia first sent troops and attacked the two states of Wu and Shuo at the same time.
For the Yunzhong region, the Western Xia has long coveted it, because it is prosperous and advanced, and if it is obtained, it can greatly enhance the national strength of the Western Xia.
Now, with the support of the Jin State behind it, and the Song State is so vulnerable, such a God-given opportunity, how could the Western Xia not grasp it?
Tan Zhi was unprepared for this before.
It wasn't until the Western Xia army had already attacked that he hurriedly ordered Li Siben to lead the righteous victorious army to meet the battle.
Pity!
There were several battles, and although both sides had their own victories and defeats, the Western Xia soldiers had always refused to retreat.
The Western Xia sent troops this time to cross the Yellow River from Jinsu Prefecture (the northwest of the Inner Mongolia Jungger Banner in later generations) and the Heqing Army (the later Inner Mongolia Dongshengbei), and captured the Tiande Army (the later Inner Mongolia Erden Prague Sumu North), Yunnei Prefecture (the northwest of the Inner Mongolia Tuzuo Banner in the later generations) and the Hedong Eight Pavilions (i.e., the Eight Pavilions of Douda, Goujiao, Haodong, Yeque, Shenya, Yulin, Baoda, and Yumin, in the northwest of Shanxi in the later generations).
Before the Western Xia sent troops this time, Wanyan Zonghan secretly sent a message to the Western Xia: "You can fall into it." That is, Western Xia could snatch the territory of the Song State as much as possible.
Song Guo seems to be ignorant of these situations, or he knows but is unprepared, so he seems to be passive everywhere.
At the beginning of August, Wanyan Zonghan suddenly sent troops to Yunzhong, and Wanyan Zongwang also sent troops from Nanjing, they worked together to drive away Wuzhou Geng Shouzhong, Shuozhou Sun Tuanlian, Huanzhou Zhang Tuanlian, Xinzhou Shen Tuanlian and Yingzhou Jiedu envoy Su Jing, killed Ulzhou guard Chen Yi, Li Siben stationed in Yunzhong Mansion led the righteous victory army to meet the Jin army, the result was vulnerable, defeated at one touch, and then fled in embarrassment.
The Jin army successively captured the seven prefectures of Wu, Xin, Yun, Huan, Shuo, Ying, and Wei, and then successively captured the two prefectures of Fu and Ru, as well as Feihu and Lingqiu, and gained all the clouds.
At this time, Tan Zhi was sitting in Taiyuan.
Previously, he lacked a clear understanding of the movements of the Western Xia army and the Jin army, so that now he is helpless to watch the Western Xia army and the Jin army attack the city and plunder the wall.
In fact, Tan Zhi has no interest in these political and military affairs at all, and he has been busy collecting rare treasures, gold, silver, pearls and jade to fill his pocket.
Many people believe that Tan Zhi "can't succeed for a long time, and he is cowardly and defeated, especially despised China Welling".
Zhao Ji was shocked when he heard that Yundi was taken away by the Jin Kingdom!
You must know that due to Shuibo Liangshan's previous operation in Yundi, it is the only place in the north that is not short of grain, and in addition to self-preservation, it can also relieve Yandi.
Now, Yundi has been taken away by the Jin State, and the Song State has lost an important pass, a rich land, not to mention, and a granary, it will be more difficult to maintain Yanjing, and more importantly, it will also start a war with the Western Xia and the Jin State.
Zhao Ji hurriedly asked people to investigate the cause and effect clearly so that they could deal with it.
In fact, there is no need for Zhao Ji to send someone to investigate.
Soon, Wanyan Zongwang sent someone to send a document to Tan Zhi, criticizing Tan Zhi, and his main accusations were the following three points:
1. Recruit the traitor Zhang Jue;
2. Accepting the former Liao fugitive population and officials;
3. Refusing to pay the promised 200,000 Hu military rations.
In fact, these are all excuses, the reason why the Jin State attacked Yundi was only because, only Yundi and Liaodong had grain in the nearby areas, and they did not dare to provoke Li Yan, so they could only fight Yundi to get grain to solve the increasingly serious problem of food shortage in the Jin State.
This is also the main reason why Wanyan Wu begged to agree with Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Zongwang to attack Yundi.
The gains and losses of the cloud land made the Song Kingdom regret it and at the same time, it also made the Song Kingdom fall into unease.
Tong Guan and Cai You saw the opportunity, entered the palace to make speeches, and suggested that Tan Zhi be dismissed.
For the three things that Jin Ren accused, who is responsible, Zhao Ji Junchen is actually very clear.
The first and second things are all advocated by Zhao Ji, and the third thing Tan Zhi is also thinking about Song Guo and Zhao Ji, otherwise Tan Zhi would not be able to rely on the grain that his predecessor Xuanfu Si had promised to borrow, after all, the other party is a terrible golden man.
But Zhao Ji thought about it, and he could only let Tan Zhi be the scapegoat.
As a result, the Song court dismissed Tan Zhi from his posts as a lieutenant and Xuanfu envoy on the grounds that he "had no way to deal with it", and demoted him to the deputy envoy of the Shunchang Army.
Zhao Ji put all the blame on Tan Zhi, and also disposed of Tan Zhi, hoping that doing so would eliminate the resentment of the Jin people against the Great Song Dynasty.
Then, Zhao Ji reinstated Tong Guan, let him re-lead the Privy Council, and continue to serve as the Xuanfu envoy of Hebei, Hedong, and Yanshanfu Road, with Zhang Xiaochun, the prefect of Taiyuan, as the deputy envoy of Xuanfu.
Zhao Ji ordered Tong Guan to set off immediately and rushed to Taiyuan, hurriedly trying to find a way to ease the tension between Western Xia and Jin, and tried to return to Yundi.
In addition, Zhao Ji also gave Tong Guan a secret mission that outsiders could not know about - to find an opportunity to welcome Emperor Tianzuo to the Great Song Dynasty.
