Chapter 722: The Imperial Court Attacks and Annihilation

Dingjun relieved the siege of Guangzhou, this is the first title that Renzong saw, first of all, he was happy, Guangnan was too far away, to some extent, almost some distribution places, some officials who had made mistakes, or stood on the wrong team, were sent to where.

Even if the entire Northern Song Dynasty has a railway, but the railway in the south has not yet been penetrated, thinking that it is twice the distance from Bianliang to Jiangning, there is a little numbness in the scalp, so that the forbidden army can fight thousands of miles away, this pressure is not ordinarily large, that is, the current financial situation of the Northern Song Dynasty is very good, and there is also the naval advantage of the navy, so this is done.

Now, under the premise of not having a forbidden army, the Dinghai Navy has solved this matter by itself, which is something that no one expected, which is a good thing for Renzong, saving expenses.

But in the hearts of other people, this is not the case, Renzong got it for the first time, and then after Zhu approved, it was handed over to the East Mansion and the Privy Council, Han Qi and Jia Chaochang, these two people who used to be superior and superior, Jia Chaochang did not finally reach the top, but was overtaken by Han Qi halfway, and finally succeeded, which also created the division of the East and West Mansions.

This is a good thing for Renzong, the power of the East and West is huge, plus the three divisions, which is the core part of the entire Northern Song Dynasty, these three, if there is a contradiction, he, as the emperor, balances in the middle, which is a good thing, but if these three, between them, the relationship is close, then as the emperor, there is something that is not good, balance is the root of an emperor's control of power.

Between Jia Chaochang and Han Qi, in order to get on the throne, they went through several battles, but in the end, Han Qi's skills were superior, Jia Chaochang was very unwilling at that time, but there was no way, Han Qi was already on the throne, but if it was really calculated, Han Qi was able to take the position, which was inseparable from the support of the Ding Navy, whether it was in the northwest, or in Hebei, or even in Youyun, without the support of the Ding Navy, he would not have such brilliant results.

Who is Zhao Xin, Jia Chaochang, as a privy envoy, knows it, but even he just can't swallow this breath, in the past two years, he has quietly made some arrangements, and the friction with the Dinghai Navy is intensifying, and it is also his handiwork, for these, he doesn't even have to go himself, as long as he provokes a little, or focuses on some aspects, he can do it.

However, his idea did not produce results, the reason is very simple, the measures of the navy were unexpected, some industries that can earn 200,000 or 300,000 yuan, they gave up when they said they gave up, and turned to what solution.

Zhao Xin's identity makes him unable to go into battle shirtless, which is a lot less ways, these low-level officials and families, they are more of a mouse, as long as there is a little bit of interest, they will pounce, which is also the root of the current status quo.

But this time, it's different, send troops privately, this can be big or small, for the border military states, that is in the time of crisis, can take the initiative, and even have a convention, or not to leave too far, for example, the military states in the north, only a few hundred miles away from the three passes, when the Liao invades, you can take the initiative to attack, from the Dinghai Navy to Guangnan, not to mention hundreds of miles, it has exceeded thousands of miles.

In addition to crossing the border and chaotic life, there is one of the most stringent places, that is in the force, the Northern Song Dynasty absorbed the experience of the Han and Tang Dynasties, and the control of military generals was extremely strict, and the long-standing position of the Jiedu Envoy was already a mirror, even if it was a border military state, this is obviously similar to the Jiedu Envoy, and the strength is very small, half of the state, able to use an army of 5,000 people, is already very terrible, and the Ding Navy can annihilate the 100,000 troops of Yizhigao, there must be more than 5,000 people, which is obviously beyond the level.

These are the direction of attack, as for those weapons, in Jia Chaochang's opinion, it is not important, although Jia Chaochang is a privy envoy, but his thinking is more at the level of civilian officials, weapons are such things, affecting the overall battle situation, this does not exist.

In Han Qi's place, it is another situation, the siege of Guangzhou is lifted, for him, it is also a good thing, if Guangzhou's is conquered, the entire south will be eroded, which will require corresponding changes for the strategy of the entire Northern Song Dynasty, which is not a good thing, maybe how much effort and funds will be wasted.

Now that Guangzhou has been defended and Yizhigao has been disabled, some things that have already been decided should be implemented, the first is to build roads.

In this emergency, highlighting the lack of roads, in the past few years, the various roads of the Dinghai Navy have been placed more in the north, and now the north is built very well, from Bianliang to the north, all the more important cities may not exceed 2 days, especially the important nodes of the border, it will be faster, and it will not give the other party a chance to sneak attack.

But the south is different, bigger, and more complicated, a Yangtze River, directly blocking the connection between the south and the north, plus all kinds of rivers, so that they did not think of building railways or highways.

Now, the Quang Nam incident has sounded a wake-up call for him, even if the south is complicated and the development of the south is relatively low, there is still a trunk route, at least to connect Quang Nam with Jiangning, and the rest will come slowly.

After the development is completed, the development of Guangnan and the whole south can also begin, and the rich funds placed in the Northern Song Dynasty's treasury can be taken out and used for the development of the south.

In addition to paying attention to the news that Guangnan was relieved, Han Qi paid more attention to this sea ship and artillery, this firing weapon, and his intuition told him that it should have something to do with gunpowder.

As a person who led the troops, and even Han Qi, who had learned about some of the development of the army, faintly felt that this should be an upgrade of gunpowder, using gunpowder in the northwest and also using it in Youzhou, the effect of attacking the city is very good, in the face of gunpowder, there is no city that cannot be attacked, it is just the number of gunpowder used.

But gunpowder is still inconvenient, if you want to blow up the city wall, it will take at least half a month, or even longer, the power of this artillery is a little lower, but the speed is fast, and the most important thing is that it can be long-range.

In the Northern Song Dynasty, military research was also placed on, how to increase efficiency, and the greatest efficiency was the invention of long-range, bed crossbows, divine arm crossbows, and even other sharp weapons, which was to increase the combat effectiveness of the army.

This weapon, which can be used on a large scale in the Dinghai Navy, is obvious, it should not be very expensive, and perhaps, the forbidden army can also be mobilized.

Han Qi's main idea was to put it here, so that he ignored the many violations of the Dinghai Navy, so when he was attacked and annihilated by Jia Chaochang the next day, he did not fight back at the first time.

The next day's court, very lively, Renzong himself is in a good mood, all the time, he was concerned about the crisis in Guangnan finally resolved, after being annihilated more than 70,000 troops, deducting some of the routs, able to follow Yi Zhigao, may not even be 10,000, from 100,000 scale, reduced to 10,000 scale, and also discarded most of the armaments, in this case, his strength, shrunk more than 10 times, in this case, maybe Guangnan still can't deal with it, but with the support of the surroundings, Or simply send 10,000 forbidden troops, and it can be easily solved.

After Yizhigao is resolved, the crisis that represents the entire south can be solved, and what remains may be just some small forces, which are accompanied by the government's tilt towards the south, whether it is the road or the deployment of troops, it will definitely be solved.

However, just after the announcement of this matter, and after receiving the congratulations of the courtiers, strange voices began to appear, first of all, the Privy Council thought that it was mainly responsible for the supervision of the army, and he took the initiative to determine the many violations of the navy, especially mentioning the matter of crossing the border.

Han Qi frowned, he was very keenly aware of it, this is not a good sign, this can be a big or small thing, even if it is investigated, it will not hurt the Ding Navy, after all, the support of the Ding Navy for the entire Northern Song Dynasty Center is not ordinarily large, at most the fine is downgraded, but no matter which one it is, it is not a problem for Zhao Xin.

Dinghai is the richest place in the entire Northern Song Dynasty, and it is not an exaggeration to be rich enough to rival the country, not to mention a fine of 50,000 and 100,000, even if it is a fine of 1 million or 5 million, it is not a problem for Zhao Xin.

As for the demotion, even if Zhao Xin is demoted to a concubine, as long as he does not remove the full strength of the Ding Navy, it will have no impact on Zhao Xin.

But it's not one or two, from this point on, a series of people have written books, and in the middle, a lot of forces have been involved, first the low-level officials of the Privy Council, and then, some Jia Chaochang's people, as well as the power of the clan.

This is worthy of Han Qi's vigilance, before, because of Zhao Xin's withdrawal, the clan selected more than a dozen elites, in the palace, enjoy royal education, now it has been about 4 years, from 9 to 12 years old when it was selected, and now the eldest can already be on his own, but for the sake of balance, in the end, it is to prepare 6 years later.

In other words, the youngest is 15 years old and the oldest is 18 years old, and they can participate in political affairs.

In 4 years, under the control of Renzong and the efforts of the first assistants, these people did not get involved in government affairs, but after all, they were cultivated in the name of the prince, and the competition and competition at that time was also the first time, inevitable, some people surrendered, and formed a force.

It's just that this force is relatively small, and it has not yet penetrated into the 3 grades or more, and on the premise of not affecting the entire Northern Song Dynasty, whether it is Shoufu or Renzong, they are almost blind to it, at most, for those who take the initiative to work, just make a note in their hearts.

But now, the forces of dozens of clans are concentrated together, including the scattered ones that belong to Jia Chaochang, and some people who are afraid of not being lively and conservative, and suddenly, the entire court is constantly attacking.

The main target is the navy, and the navy's violation is certain, exaggerating the threat of the navy, but not putting the navy on the level of rebellion.

Ding's navy is rich and rivals, and he has mastered several lifelines of the Northern Song Dynasty, which seems to be huge, but in fact, the lack of an army is his weakest point, and even the siege of Guangzhou is also a few ships and special weapons.

If the Dinghai really sent the army and defeated Yizhigao head-on, it is worth noting, but the sea ships are at most threatening the seaside, and the current Dinghai Navy does not have any powerful cities on the seaside, even if the Dinghai Navy has countless ships, so what.

This was only the 11th century, the era of the Continental Army, and the extent to which the navy had not yet formed to threaten the land, blockade the access to the sea, and blockade a country.

This is also a matter that the Navy considered before setting the Navy, showing off the muscles appropriately, but not too much.

However, Han Qi was not prepared, he couldn't go into battle shirtless, after all, the purpose of Jia Chaochang and the others, intentionally or unintentionally, was also directed towards Han Qi is Zhao Xin's umbrella.

Is it true, everyone knows in their hearts that it is impossible for Han Qi to defect to Zhao Xin, otherwise he will not be able to stop Shoufu, and behind Zhao Xin is Renzong.

Jia Chaochang's purpose is to muddy up the mud and pull Han Qi down, it is impossible, Han Qi's contribution is huge, plus after becoming the prime minister, the whole performance is very good, and all aspects of the Northern Song Dynasty are also thriving, it is the best time, at this time, it will definitely not work.

However, through this one thing, it is still possible to prick a thorn in Renzong's heart, and it is still okay to pull down the psychological feeling, maybe it will be able to play a role in the future.

As for the forces of those clans, they went into battle shirtless, and they thought that Zhao Xin, who had been removed from the Jade Butterfly and ran away with another set of identities, actually used such a method to come back.

In terms of identity, Zhao Xin does not have any advantages, but if he does not get rid of the identity of Renzong's son, it is clear in Renzong's heart, and if he has enough power, it will be uncontrollable, and no one knows whether such an identity will return.

There is a competitive relationship between each other, but in this matter, their purpose is the same, if Zhao Xin can't be completely cleaned up, who knows what the situation will be in 5 years, 10 years later.

Taizu was able to mutiny in Chenqiao, and Taizong was able to die as a brother, and no one dared to guarantee that a son of Renzong would not be sandwiched by a powerful force and become the master of the East Palace again.

The whole court is in chaos, even if there are some people who know it well, see it clearly, and see that it involves the issue of succession, they don't dare to talk more, the issue of inheritance and the crown prince has always been the most sensitive issue in the court, especially under the premise that Renzong is in the prime of life and is in good health, it is not suitable to mention this, maybe it will anger.

Han Qi, who has the most right to speak and the most powerful, because he is not prepared, cannot refute on the spot, and the others are wise to protect themselves, and all of a sudden, there is a sound of shouting and killing against the Dinghai Navy, and it is also huge.

However, such a situation is not what Renzong wants to see, he held back the anger in his heart, listened to the narration one by one, and then put aside the controversy, announced his withdrawal from the dynasty, and found Han Qi as soon as he retreated.
