…

After Yan Zonghan strictly guarded the troops, cleaned up the armor, and led the Western Route Army to advance cautiously all the way to Daizhou.

In Wanyan Zonghan's view, this time their Western Route Army will inevitably have several tough battles, Wanyan Zonghan even said to the deputy marshal Wanyan Xiyin and Yelu Yujian: "Today to Daizhou, there will be several battles with the Southern Army, it is impossible to have smooth sailing, you must be prepared." ”

However, what Wanyan Zonghan never expected was that they were so strong that they didn't encounter much resistance at all.

When he was in Shuozhou, the guard general Sun Yi was loyal and brave, and led the army out of the city to fight a decisive battle with the Jin army, but as soon as he left the city with his front foot, the men on the back foot opened the city and surrendered.

When the Jin army arrived in Wuzhou, Han'er was also the internal response, and Wuzhou was easily occupied by the Jin army.

In only three days, Wanyan Zonghan led the Western Route Army to the city of Daizhou.

Daizhou is also known as Yanmen County, the north rejects Yanmen, the risk of mountains and rivers, known as the high risk, the mountain to control the water, the terrain is solid.

Wanyan Zonghan thought that when he got here, he should fight a big battle.

But what Wanyan Zonghan didn't expect was that the Han'er of Daizhou actually captured Li Siben, the defender of Daizhou, who was the commander of the Yisheng Army, and then directly opened the city and surrendered.

Who are these men? Why did they surrender one after another?

In fact, they are the Righteous Victory Army, the Righteous Victory Army composed of Yanyun Han people.

The Yisheng Army was recruited by Tan Zhen, and the original purpose of forming this army was to consolidate and contain the Changsheng Army.

But the Song people insulted these Yanyun Han people in front of them, treating them as not my race, which made it impossible for the Yanyun Han people to find a sense of belonging in the Song people.

It can be said that the reason why these Yanyun Han people rebelled had a lot to do with the Song people's distrust of them, which was the result of the Song people's consistent discrimination against them.

In addition, after the Song State obtained Yanyun from Li Yan, the policies implemented made the Great Song Dynasty lose the popular support of the Han people in Yandi.

Cai Jing's wife and brother Xu Cai, when reflecting on the lessons of the Song Dynasty's governance of Yanshan, pointed out that there are three people who have lost the hearts of the Yan people: one is to change officials, two to grant fields, and three to salt the law. The change of officials lost the hearts of the people, the granting of land lost the hearts of the people, and the salt law did not lose the hearts of the people.

The consequence of this is to lose the hearts of the original Han officials in Liao, and some of them responded to the call of the Song Dynasty to go to the imperial court to change officials, and later they also fled across the border, such as Zhao Gongyan, Zhao Gonglun, Yao Qiwang and others.

Grant the field, that is, the land of the Yan people to the Chang Shengjun, and later the Yan people came back, there was no land and no property, and many wealthy people were reduced to begging on the streets.

The salt law refers to the economic failure of the Song Dynasty in the Yanshan area - when Li Yan controlled Yanyun, there was no tax in the Yanyun area, and the salt was one yuan and two hundred catties, that is, in the later period of the Liao Kingdom, the tax in the Yanyun area was not serious, and the money always got one hundred and twenty catties of salt, but when the Song State controlled the Yanyun region, the rulers of the Song State did not consider the actual situation, and the official salt system in the Yanshan area was as high as or even higher than the price in the mainland, and the price was 250 or even 280 wen per catty of salt, so that the Yan people could not afford to eat salt.

In addition, since the Song State took over Yanyun from Li Yan, the Yanyun region, especially the Han people in Yundi, fell from heaven to hell all of a sudden, and later even changed their children and ate them.

This made the Han people not only miss the rule of Shuibo Liangshan infinitely, but also hated the Song State, thinking that the Song State was not as good as the Shuibo Liangshan but also the Jin State.

Therefore, as soon as the Jin army arrived, the Han people everywhere opened the city and surrendered one after another.

After occupying Daizhou, the Jin army continued southward.

A few days later, the Jin army arrived in Xinzhou.

Xinzhou is also a strategic place, since ancient times it has been known as the "key to the north of Jin".

The prefect of Xinzhou is named He Quan, who is also a soft bone, and when he saw that the Jin army was overwhelming, he seemed to be irresistible, so he gave up resistance and opened the door to surrender.

Wanyan Zonghan was overjoyed and ordered that the soldiers should not enter the city, but camp outside the city to rest.

The next target of the Jin army was Shiling Pass.

Shiling Pass, also known as "Baipi Pass" and "Shiling Town", is located in the north of Taiyuan, and is the only place to pass through the clouds to Taiyuan.

This pass, the terrain is precipitous, the ridge crosses the east and west, the road runs north and south, guards the main road of Taiyuan to Xin, Dai, Yun and Shuo, a husband is a pass, ten thousand people are not open, it is the place where the soldiers of the past dynasties must fight.

In the face of the aggressive offensive of the Jin army, Zhang Xiaochun was very anxious, and he eagerly sought someone to defend this dangerous pass.

At this time, someone recommended Ji Jing to Zhang Xiaochun, saying that Ji Jing could guard the customs.

Ji Jing conquered Tian Hu, Wang Qing, and Fang La, and when the Second Northern Expedition regained Yanjing, he served as a general and had rich practical experience.

Judging from the resume, Jijing is indeed a suitable candidate.

Zhang Xiaochun then ordered Ji Jing to go to Shiling Pass to guard the pass.

But Ji Jing refused to resign on the grounds of insufficient troops.

Zhang Xiaochun had no choice but to order Wang Zongyin to lead the officers and soldiers to dare to go to Shiling Pass with Ji Jing, and at the same time ordered Geng Shouzhong, a returning courtier, to lead 8,000 righteous victories to help.

Seeing this, Ji Jing had to go to Shiling Pass.

However, Ji Jing was very distrustful of Geng Shouzhong, because Geng Shouzhong was a Han'er, a general of the Liao State, and the deputy commander of the Yisheng Army.

Ji Jing therefore made Geng Shouzhong the front and walked at the forefront of the army - he was worried that Geng Shouzhong would attack him.

Geng Shouzhong traveled to Xinkou, returned suddenly, and said to Ji Jing: "The Shouzhong Department is full of infantry troops, if you borrow the brave military horses, then the gold cannot reach the pass." ”

Ji Jing then ordered the Dare Yong Army to lend some military horses to Geng Shouzhong for the time being.

Geng Shouzhong wanted half of the brave army, thinking that otherwise, he could not resist the Jin army.

Ji Jing felt that Geng Shouzhong's behavior was abnormal, and he seemed to have a rebellious heart, so he led his relatives and others to abandon the pass and escape.

Geng Shouzhong led the army to Shiling Pass, and was defeated and sacrificed.

When Ji Jing heard that Geng Shouzhong had defected to the enemy, he did not dare to return to Taiyuan and fled to Fenzhou.

As the last natural barrier and important pass north of Taiyuan, Shiling Pass was easily lost, so the Jin army entered a no-man's land until Taiyuan.

Wanyan Zonghan knew that the combat effectiveness of the Song army was relatively poor, but he didn't expect it to be so vulnerable.

From then on, Wanyan Zonghan gradually came up with the idea of subverting the Song Dynasty regime.

In fact, at the beginning of the invasion, the Jin army did not have a strategic plan for the two armies to join Tokyo and destroy the Song Dynasty, and its combat goal was only to occupy the Yanshan region and Shanxi.

Of course, it does not mean that the Song State did not have ministers who died in battle.

There is a member of the Ministry of Officials, Wailang Fu Cha.

Wu Youwu Yilang played the inspection of the West Road of Daizhou, so that Li Yi and the Zhejia could be compared.

They are all ministers with integrity, and they are martyred in the war with the country.

The former, regardless of Yan Zongwang's coercion and temptation, did not surrender, did not kneel to worship Yan Zongwang, and died generously.

The people of the time wrote a poem for him, entitled "Officials and Ministers Wailang Fu Gong": greedy Hu Han League, the soldiers suddenly overlooked. The public holds the Han Festival, and the guests are in the world. The strings are controlled, and the grass and trees are shocked. Hu is arrogant and self-contained. The public oath is not ashamed, and there is no worship in death. Kill yourself and become a benevolent, broadcast beauty for thousands of years.

Some people praised and said: The beginning of the thief is also, the matter is unexpected, Mo is not stunned, looking at the wind, the public is alone, and he is not afraid of death, thinking that the advocacy of loyalty and righteousness is not disciplined?

The latter, led the army to defend Lao County in a bloody battle with the enemy, and later lost the city due to the rebellion of Han'er Cui Zhong, and would rather die than surrender.

The day before the county seat of Laoxian County was captured by the Jin army, Li Yi was already ready to die for the country, and he instructed his son Li Zongzhou with four things: "If the city is broken, I can't live and obey the Jin people." I heard that Daizhou Shi An'an has broken through, and the battle general Xin gradually scolded the thief and killed himself, which is a model for my generation. After I die, if you have to find a way to return to the township and sue the court for my death, so that I will not die, then future generations will say that I am a loyal minister of the Song Dynasty, and you are a filial son. He is favored by the court, and you can let your uncle be orphaned. Your stepmother has only been married to me for a few months, and I put state affairs first, how can I take care of her? When I die, you will serve her as your own mother. Assuming that you are both unfortunate enough to fall into the enemy, do not turn your back on her. After I die, if you can return to your hometown, then bury my bones in the ancestral camp, so that I can serve my ancestors in Jiuquan after I die, and I will not hate after death! ”

After Li Yi and Zhe Ke were captured, Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Xiyin sent people to persuade him many times, but not only did they not surrender, but they also scolded Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Xiyin.

Li Yi said: "I am a courtier of the Southern Dynasty, because of the traitor's internal response, the city was broken and captured, and if I kill it, I will kill it, how can I worship you and the dog?" ”

The translator admired Li Yi's integrity, and tactfully translated to Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Xiyin, wanting to save Li Yi's life.

But Li Yi didn't appreciate it, and said: "I was unfortunately robbed and humiliated by Fangou today, how can I be a survivor!" ”

Zhi Kehe also said loudly: "I have been guarding the family for eighty years, how can I be willing to lose the reputation of the country and corrupt the family, ignorant animals, why don't you kill me urgently!" ”

The Jin people were angry with Li Yi and Zhi Ke and insulted, and rushed to beat Li Yi and Zhi Ke with a stick, Li Yi's forehead was injured by a stick, and Zhi Ke was beaten in one eye, but they still kept scolding.

Wanyan Zonghan sighed that Li Yi and Zhe Ke kept the festival, and sent someone to tell him earnestly: "You and others are all together, read your loyalty, and want to take out a full loan, but you still dare to scold and insult your honorable lords." ”

Li Yi replied: "If my generation has an inch of blade, if he should kill you, how can he scold him?" ”

The Jin people knew that Li Yi and Zhe Kehe would not give in in the end, so they drove them to the city of Laoxian in a carriage and paraded the public.

Not long after entering the city, walking on the street, Li Yi suddenly saw Cui Zhong, a man who dedicated the city, and immediately scolded Cui Zhong!

Cui Zhong was speechless in shame, hiding his face and fleeing.

When he was killed, Li Yi made a request to the Jin soldiers guarding it: "I want to slow down, if you have to look south and worship, you will die without hatred!" ”

Jin Bing did not agree.

Li Yi then turned his head to the south and shouted: "Official, official, the minister is weak, and he can't destroy this thief to repay the country's kindness!" The voice of pathos, until death.
