In the forty-first round, Shangguo pharmacist led his troops to Nantou Song

However, it was said that after Yeluchun defeated the Song army, he intended to make peace with the Song under the pretense of military victory, but who knew that he was obstructed by Tong Guan and Wang Huang, and it was difficult to negotiate peace. Weighing the pros and cons, he sent an envoy to serve the table in gold and beg for a vassal country. This did not happen, but Yeluchun became seriously ill and bedridden. Knowing that it was difficult to stay in the world for a long time, he secretly conferred the post of marshal of the Panhan Ma Bu Army with the post of Tai Lieutenant Li Chuwen, intending to entrust the future. At the time of the emergency, Xiao Gan ordered the south to be in charge of military affairs. The other ministers arrived, but only Li Chuwen said that he was not sick. He secretly summoned the warriors for preparation, but said to the outside that he was in accordance with His Majesty's secret order to prevent it from changing. After Ye Luchun died of illness, Xiao Gan relied on the Liao soldiers and declared that he should appoint the princess Xiao as the queen mother, and the affairs of the military state, the civil and military officials in the court, and no one who dared to disagree. Xiao Gan summoned Li Chuwen to come with the order of Empress Xiao, and wanted to kill him, but Empress Xiao pardoned but did not kill him because of the difficulties in the world. Li Chuwen's younger brother Li Chuoneng became a monk because he was afraid of disaster.

After the news of Ye Luchun's illness and death reached Bianliang, the capital of the Song Dynasty, the happiest people were Wang Huang and others. At that moment, everyone gathered in Wang Huang's mansion and congratulated each other with their palms. Tong Guan said: "Yeluchun is now dead, and the Liao people of Yanjing have lost their backbone, which seems to have collapsed for most of the day. The recovery of Yanjing is just around the corner. Wang Hao said: "Tong Xuanfu's words are really insightful and insightful. The ancients had a saying: 'Know astronomy, know geography, know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles.' 'Who in the world doesn't know that Tong Xuanfu is wise and brave and good at using soldiers? Hearing this, Wang already expected that Tong Xuanfu already had a plan to take Yan in his heart, and Yanjing would soon be included in the territory of my Great Song Dynasty. ”

Tong Guan listened and said with a smile: "God-given opportunity, how can you lose it?" I heard that the Emperor of the Jin State A Gu beat the royal car and led the army to the west to fight against the Tianzuo Emperor. If he hears that Yeluchun is dead, if the emperor of the Jin State, Ah Guta, suddenly changes his mind and leads his troops eastward to Yanjing. Although there was a maritime alliance between Song and Jin, it was difficult to predict the changes in the situation at this time. It's as if two hunters spotted a wild deer grazing in the grass from different directions at the same time, and both wanted to get it. It's hard to say who this fawn will end up with. ”

When Wang Hao heard this, he laughed and said, "If we think of Yanjing as a fat deer, then the person who won the deer must have made you Xuanfu." ”

When Tong Guan heard this, he also laughed and said: "I hope so, and I also hope that the final result can be like this." Lord Wang, you must supply me with enough grain and grass, and most of the credit for recovering Yanjing in the future will be you, Lord Wang. ”

Wang Hao said: "This is not necessary. Tong Xuanfu risked his body and did not avoid life and death. And he strategized and won a thousand miles, and the work was none other than Tong Xuanfu's envoy. Yes, it must have been Tong Xuanfu's envoy. Hahaha...... Hahaha! When Tong Xuanfu returns to the court, he will definitely invite colleagues to celebrate the success of Tong Xuanfu's envoy here! ”

Tong Guan said: "Then you don't have to worry about Lord Wang, hahaha!" ”

At that moment, Wang Hao and Tong Guan tacitly agreed that they would send troops to the Northern Expedition again. After Tong Guan returned home, he immediately sent someone to invite Cai You to discuss and ask him to manage the army.

After the news that Wang Hao and Tong Guan planned to govern the Northern Expedition again spread among the government and the opposition, there was no one who dared to speak out among the ministers. Only Chaosanlang Song Zhao risked his death to write a book, and he wrote in the table: "Liao cannot be attacked, and Jin cannot be neighbored." In the future, Jin will lose the alliance and be a disaster for China. Begging Wang Huang, Tong Guan, Zhao Liangsi and others to thank the world! In addition, he wrote: "The oath of the two countries, the defeat of the alliance will bring disaster to the nine tribes." Your Majesty governs the world with filial piety, can you bear to forget the holy spirits in heaven? Your Majesty overthrew the world with forbearance, and did he endure the people of Hebei in the midst of misery, and make the liver and brain smeared? Song Huizong looked at this seal and did not say no, but it angered Wang Huang and Tong Guan, and he was dismissed from office. After that, Wang Hao took Liu Yanqing as the capital of the three cities of Heyang, supervised 100,000 soldiers, and launched a large-scale northern expedition, and the soldiers pointed directly at Baigou.

After the Battle of Shilinyi, Emperor Tianzuo of Liao led the remnants to the west, and Jin Taizu Aguta was about to personally lead the army to pursue the victory. Before the soldiers set off, he got two pieces of news that surprised him, one was that the Xingzhong Mansion in Zhongjing of the Liao State had rebelled again, and the nearby Liao people responded one after another. The other is the death of Ye Luchun, the king of Qin and Jin in Liao, and his concubine Xiao was regarded as the queen mother by the minister, and the superintendent of the country was called the system. The first news caused a kind of psychological pressure on Jin Taizu Aguta, if he led his army to continue westward and went deep alone, if the Liao army gathered and cut off his way back, at that time, he would fall into a situation where he was attacked on all sides, and the consequences would be unimaginable. The second piece of news made Jin Taizu feel worried, and he deduced that the Western Liao established by Yeluchun in Yanjing would not last long. Who knew that Yeluchun died of illness less than half a year after he became emperor, which was something that Jin Taizu Aguda did not expect. According to his original plan, he wanted to put Yanjing's Ye Luchun aside, leave him alone for the time being, and let him entangle with the Song people. He concentrated all his forces to clear the Liao and Xi soldiers in the Zhongjing and Xijing regions, and captured the Tianzuo Emperor of Liao. Finally, let's go back to Yenching. For the Song State, Ah Guta didn't know much, he only knew that the Song State was vast and populous, so there should be a strong army. In this way, he felt that he should maintain a cautious attitude in his relations with the Song State. However, Ye Luchun's sudden death made him keenly feel that something was about to happen in Yanjing City. Although there was a maritime alliance between the Song and Jin, the terrain of Yanjing was dangerous, and it still had a pivotal relationship with the future of the Jin State.

Due to the above reasons, Ah Guda made a quick decision, changed his original intention, and no longer led his troops westward. On the contrary, he led the army to return to the east to observe the changes in the situation in Yanjing.

In September of the sixth year of Tianfu, Jin Taizu Agu traveled to Caoluo, and at this time, he received the good news that the army led by the mother of Yan to pacify the Xingzhong Mansion. It turned out that Yan Mu heard that the heavy troops of Liao were stationed in Yizhou, and the Liao army in Xingzhong Mansion was in a horn situation, so the troops were divided into two routes, and personally led the troops to attack Yizhou, and led the troops to attack Xingzhong Mansion with the three people of Bao Jin Meng, Diagonal Bowl, and Wu Tart. Yan Mu first pretended to be Liao people with more than 20 people, and when the city was closed in the evening, she mixed in with the people who returned to the city and infiltrated the city of Yizhou. The next day, Yan Mu suddenly led his troops to besiege the city, attacked inside and outside, and captured Yizhou. Almost at the same time, Meng Piao and others also conquered Xingzhong Mansion and captured Yelu Jiujin, the defender of Liao. Although Ah Gu was very happy in his heart, he still admonished his mother: "All the land of Liao is owned by me, although it has repeatedly rebelled, but in the final analysis, it is also my people, let them cultivate the crops, do not disturb them." At the same time, Ah Guta also issued an edict to the six Xi tribes: "You have surrendered and rebelled, and you have tempted people's hearts, and your sins are unforgivable." If you can descend quickly, you should be relieved of your crimes, and the officials will still be there. When the people of the Liuxi Department heard it, they couldn't help but look at the wind and descend.

At this time, Xijing Guihua Prefecture rebelled again, and Aguda ordered Mou Lianghu to lead his troops to fight. When the tiger walked to the Broken Cloud Ridge, he suddenly heard the sound of a tiger roaring in the forest beside the road. Mou Lianghu was originally a brave and fighting person, but he turned his horse's head and disappeared into the forest alone. After a long time, I didn't see Mou Lianghu returning. Everyone rushed into the forest to search, but in the depths of the dense forest, they found Mou Lianghu. I saw him sitting on a rock, leaning against a tree, his eyes closed, and he was panting loudly. In front of him and behind him, three tigers lay in pools of blood. The crowd carried Mou Lianghu back to the camp, and he was in a coma from then on. Zonggan did not dare to mistake the affairs of the military state, so he sent thousands of Shijia slaves to guard it, and personally led his troops to take the naturalized state. Entering the city, the Liao people have already opened the city to greet them. When Zong Gan saw it, he was amazed. After asking the reason, the Liao people replied: "In the past few days, there have been golden generals who have plotted good tigers, and they have led troops to attack the city every day, which is very powerful. I couldn't resist it, and promised to surrender today. When Zong Gan heard this, he was shocked in his heart. Hurriedly returned to the camp to see Mou Lianghu's condition, only to see that his condition had become seriously ill and he was dying. His lips were one by one, as if to speak. Zong Gan asked, and Mou Lianghu said slowly in a low voice: "The great cause of the country has been accomplished, the Lord will live for 10,000 years, purge the Quartet, and die without hatred." He died at the age of forty.

When Ah Guda heard that Mou Lianghu was lying on the journey, he was very anxious, and immediately rode a fast horse to see Mou Lianghu's illness. Halfway through the journey, he unexpectedly got the bad news that Mou Lianghu was dead, and suddenly fainted to the ground. After waking up, he said to his ministers: "This son is very strategic, and he is brave in battle, which is rarely compared. It has made great contributions to the country, but it is a pity that it does not enjoy eternal years, heavenly, heavenly! He ordered the funeral of a thousand households and the slaves of the Shijia family, buried in Guihua Prefecture, and ordered the construction of a Buddhist temple in the place where he died, so as to surpass his dead soul and serve as a place of sacrifice for generations.

Jin Taizu Aguda stopped for a few days in Guihua Prefecture because of the funeral of Mou Lianghu, and received a report from the scout, saying that the Song Dynasty had sent Tong Guan to lead the troops into Yan, and he was suspicious in his heart, and convened the ministers to discuss. Some ministers thought that the Southern Dynasty might lose the alliance and break the treaty, while others thought that if the Southern Dynasty relied on their own strength to obtain Yanjing, they might not get the annual tribute promised by the Southern Dynasty. In the end, it was agreed to send two people, Wu Jin and Gao Qingyi, to the Southern Dynasty.

Wu Xie and Gao Qing arrived in Bianliang, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty, and Song Huizong sent Zhao Liangsi as an envoy to receive them. Wu Xie said to Zhao Liangsi: "I heard that the Gui Dynasty sent Tong Guan to raise troops to the Northern Expedition, trying to capture Yanjing, but it was kept secret and not reported to our country. I don't know what it means, so my emperor sent us as an envoy to your country to ask for mercy. Zhao Liangsi replied: "The maritime alliance between Jin and Song is still vivid in my mind. Now the two countries are doing what they want, each taking what he wants, and they are only acting according to the covenant, tacitly acknowledging each other. For example, when the Gui Dynasty captured Xijing, it did not send an envoy to report it. Now Tong Guan sent troops to the Northern Expedition in order to realize the covenant of the encirclement. And the military action taken, please do not care about the court. If you don't report to each other, you don't have to worry about it. When Uche heard this, he seemed to feel that what he said was reasonable, and he did not want to say anything more.

During their stay in Bianliang, Wu Xie, Gao Qingyi and others were received extremely warmly. Song Huizong's extraordinary generosity and generosity moved the two of them. The rewards given to them are innumerable, and among them there is even a royal tea anointment. In addition, they are also allowed to visit the extremely famous palaces such as Denglong Palace and Longde Palace, and as for the Fanyan Mansion and the Palace Annex, they are everywhere. The purpose of the monarchs and ministers of the Northern Song Dynasty was nothing more than to make the envoys of the Jin State grateful to Dai De and no longer make any requests. Among the two, Gao Qingyi is particularly cunning and abnormal, he is originally from Bohai, knows poetry and books, and is good at words. Although he is extremely deferential on the surface and praises virtue, in terms of practical benefits, he is disdainful of it. One day, Uche and others were invited to Wang Huangzhi's first meeting and gave a reply in person. In the book, it is stated that "all the Han land and the siege are not as discussed in the past." Wu Xie didn't say anything about this, but Gao Qingyi said: "The meaning of the sentence is a little vague, is it to wait for the country's soldiers to come?" Zhao Liangsi said: "There is no need to worry about this, and there is no need to force it. Even if this dynasty takes advantage of the victory to capture Yanjing, it does not contradict the fact that the Jin State has promised the New Year's coin, so please do not be suspicious. Gao Qingyi had Zhao Liangsi's promise, so he stopped talking. After that, Zhao Liangsi served as the return envoy, and Ma Kuo was the deputy to visit Jinguo.

In October of the sixth year of Tianfu, Jin Taizu Aguta led his troops to Fengshengzhou. Liao State Ulzhou guards Zhai Zhaoyan, Xu Xing, Tian Qing and Yelu Yu had a very good friendship. Yelu Yu made a suggestion to Ah Gu and volunteered to surrender. Soon, the three of them really came to see Jin Taizu with Yelu Yu. Jin Taizu Ah Gu repeatedly told him, and then appointed Zhai Zhaoyan and Tian Qing as the assassins, and Xu Xing as the regimental training envoy. At this point, Yanjing was already under the nose of Jin Taizu, and Jin Bing was only a stone's throw away from Yanjing.

At this critical time, in Yanjing City, the situation has changed greatly.

It turned out that when Ye Luchun was alive, he formed an army based on the hungry people in Liaodong, called the "Grievance Army", which was taken from the meaning of complaining to the Jurchens, and Guo Yaoshi, a native of Tiezhou in Bohai, was the commander. As the situation slowly changed, two of the battalions defected, and Guo Yaoshi killed Luo Qing, the leader of the rebels. The capital commander Xiao Gan left 2,000 people and placed them in four battalions, with Guo Yaoshi, Zhang Quanhui, Liu Shunren, and Zhen Wuchen as the main generals of each battalion. After Yeluchun changed the "resentful army" to the "ever-victorious army", he moved to Guo Yaoshi as the general of Zhuwei and the post of staying in Zhuozhou. After Ye Luchun's death, Empress Xiao weighed the system, Xiao Gan ****, and there was a second heart up and down. Guo Yaoshi guarded Zhuozhou, and also began to hold a wait-and-see attitude.

On this day, Guo Yaoshi suddenly got an urgent report, saying that it was Song Shi's big move into Yan, and his edge was close to Zhuozhou. Guo Yaoshi was shocked when he heard this, thinking that there was Empress Xiao's suspicion of himself inside, and the Song soldiers were pressing the realm outside, and he was attacked by the enemy on his back. If you don't judge the situation and adapt to the situation, you will suffer sooner or later. After thinking about it again and again, he gathered the generals of his subordinates together and said to them: "Tianzuo lost the country, the women's government is not outlined, and Song Tianzi is overwhelmed by heavy troops, this is the time for men to take the golden seal." "Just said this, I only heard the mountains shake, and 10,000 people responded. Pharmacist Guo was overjoyed when he saw it. Immediately sent someone to imprison the prison army Xiao Yuqing, and sent an envoy to Song Fengbiao to ask for surrender. Gao Feng, the general of Yizhou, saw that Guo Yaoshi descended to the Song Dynasty, and he also expected that the lonely city would be difficult to defend, so he followed in the footsteps of Guo Yaoshi and led his troops to the south.
