Chapter 825: The heart of the people is sinister, and Song will fall
How sinister is the human heart? There is such a story that is very representative.
A beautiful girl who meets a handsome guy with a lot of gold by chance.
This handsome guy made a generous move, pursued this girl passionately, took her everywhere to play, bought her a lot of gifts, and the girl felt very happy.
While they were parting, the handsome guy left her a box to open when the girl got home.
When the girl returned home, she opened the box and found a beautiful shroud and a note that read: "Welcome to the world of AIDS." β
What AIDS represents, basically everyone knows, a person who knows that he is sick, but also deliberately harms another person, this kind of thing should be done only by human beings.
Strangers will kill each other for no reason, not to mention those who already have a grudge.
The Jin and Song kingdoms were essentially friends and foes, and the two countries were now united only to deal with a much more powerful enemy.
Liu Yanqing, who was stationed in Ruzhou, stood still and watched Yan Zongbi and Spartacus fight fiercely, which is human nature, but the Jin people are not stupid.
The Huainan battlefield was originally the Jin and Song coalition forces in the Huainan region to horizontally intercept the attack of the five major armies of the empire, when Wan Yan Zongwang, Wan Yan Zonghan, Wan Yan Zongbi and Guo Yaoshi led the Jin army to retreat to Yingchang Mansion, it was equivalent to putting the Dao Department and Liu Yanqing Department of the Seed Division, which were originally hiding behind the Jin soldiers, in front.
After all, this is not the Jin country, so the people of the Jin country don't care how much land they have lost and how many state capitals they have given up, but the seed master Dao and Liu Yanqing are different, behind them is Gyeonggi Road, where there is Tokyo City, the capital of the Great Song Dynasty, and they have no way to retreat.
"The enemy advances and I retreat, the enemy is stationed and disturbs me, the enemy is tired and I fight, and the enemy retreats and I pursue", referred to as the "sixteen-character formula", this is also the war strategy of the imperial army since it became an army.
Since the Jin army retreated sharply, the imperial army naturally would not wait in place, and the five major armies marched together, and soon met the Song army, which had no way to retreat.
In the face of more and more difficult occupation, the seventy-six-year-old famous general of the Great Song Dynasty, Seed Master, is becoming more and more physically and mentally exhausted.
In the battle of Caizhou South, Chongshi Dao had sent people several times to urge Liu Yanqing, who was stationed in Ruzhou, to send troops to help Wanyan Zongbi, but he refused, and finally the Jin people retreated on all fronts as he expected, exposing the Song army to the front of the imperial army.
Since the Jin army fully retreated to Yingchang Mansion, the messenger sent by the seed master to Ruzhou has not returned, and he has no idea whether Liu Yanqing and his 50,000 troops are alive or dead now.
The day before yesterday, the two armies stationed in Xiping and Shangshui fled back to Yuncheng, which shows that the imperial army has completely completed the occupation of the east and west roads of Huainan and the southwest road of Jingnan, and the Great Song Dynasty has once again lost the capital of the three roads, and the enemy army has entered the northwest road of Beijing.
At noon yesterday, the Song army's rangers who were reconnoitring and patrolling in the southern area of Yuncheng were all killed by the forward cavalry of the imperial army.
At sunset yesterday, the convoy carrying grain and grass from the city of Tokyo was ambushed by an imperial army, a large number of soldiers and civilians surrendered, and some of the grain and grass baggage that could not be taken away were also burned on the spot.
Just after the soldiers under the command of the Planter Dao were ready to defend against the enemy, the east, west, and south of Yuncheng finally appeared with black-pressed imperial soldiers.
Standing on the city tower, looking at the countless imperial soldiers who were walking neatly and constantly approaching Yuncheng, the heart of the master was really cold.
If the appearance of the imperial army made the soldiers in the city fall into winter, then when an army they were very familiar with slowly approached, then everyone's hearts were really like being in the Arctic land.
This team did not play any banners, and the morale was extremely low, and the most important thing was that they were all dressed in the uniforms of the Song army.
After the imperial army outside the city was arrayed, several imperial generals came to the front of the formation, and Kress patted the general of the Song army beside him, and laughed at the city: "Seed Master, do you know this old colleague?" β
The seed master did not answer Kress's words, but looked at the general of the Song army with wide eyes, and scolded loudly:
"Liu Yanqing, your Liu family has been a general for generations, and the imperial court has rewarded you with countless favors, first to Xiangzhou to observe the envoy, the commander of the Dragon Shenwei, and the general manager of Yan Yanlu. Later, he paid homage to the envoy of the Baoxin Army and the deputy commander of the Ma Army. Now that the national disaster is at hand, His Majesty Qinzong has appointed you to supervise 50,000 soldiers for Xuanfu Capital, and regard you as a good general of the Great Song Dynasty and an important minister of the country, I didn't expect that you, a pig and a dog, would surrender to the enemy before the war, which is really a disgrace to the Holy Grace, and is really a shameless dog thief! β
The planter with white hair and beard stood on the head of the city, and this time he scolded heartily.
When Liu Yanqinggan first came to the front of the city, he was still ashamed in the face of the Song people such as the Seed Master Dao, but when he heard the scolding of the Seed Master Dao, he couldn't help but arouse the long-suppressed anger in his heart, and immediately retorted.
"My Liu family was originally a Qiang family like the Zhe family and the Yang family, since I voted for the Song State, I have fought desperately against the Western Xia for generations, and countless sons and daughters in the family have died on the battlefield, but how did the Zhao family of the Song State treat us? The emperor of the Zhao family is a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh of our military generals, and he always uses civilian officials to suppress our military generals. Even the commanders of every army are civilian officials who do not understand military affairs, and every time we fight, we will win the civilian officials to receive the merits, and if we are defeated, we will be the generals to take the blame! β
"Others don't say it, just talk about the general Di Qing. He made many military exploits and was promoted to privy envoy for his merits, which was a rare thing in the Great Song Dynasty, but he was such a famous general with outstanding merits, and he was still despised and excluded by civilian officials. Seed Master Dao, do you remember the old story of Han Qi killing Jiao Yong? β
Seeing that the seed master Dao at the head of the city was silent, Liu Yanqing continued indignantly: "Han Qi once said, 'Those who sing as champions outside the Donghua Gate are good, how can this be a good son!'" Then he killed Jiao Yong, and Di Qing said angrily, "Han's official position is the same as mine, and I am one less Jinshi and Di'er." This shows my status as a military attachΓ©. β
Regarding the harsh attitude of the monarchs and ministers of the Song State towards the military generals, he didn't know how to plant, so he could only say: "What you said is all old things in the past, but it is not a reason for you to defect to the enemy and commit treason. β
The more Liu Yanqing said, the more imposing he became, and immediately said: "Since ancient times, there is a saying that good birds choose trees to perch, and virtuous ministers choose the lord to serve." My Liu family has shed enough blood for the Song Kingdom, and it is also worthy of the Zhao family's affection, and now that Qinzong Zhao Huan has led the Jin people into the country, the people of the world have been slaughtered and displaced, and I, Liu Yanqing, have returned to the empire, which is also a matter of setting things right and complying with the mandate of heaven! β
Although the seed master knew that Liu Yanqing was greedy for life and afraid of death, and then made excuses for his shameless behavior, but Qinzong Zhao Huan's alliance with the Jin people was really despised by the majority of Song people, although he wrote against it, but it was to no avail.
Just as the Seed Master Dao was thinking about the wording, Liu Yanqing shouted loudly: "Seed Master Dao, I have a copy of the Emperor's handwritten decree here, are you willing to accept it?" β
