Chapter 48 On Song Huizong's sins have been Zen thrones

In the forty-eighth round, the sins of Huizong in the Song Dynasty have been in the great position of Zen

Let's say that because of the surrender of Guo Yaoshi, Zongwang easily won Yanjing. Yanshan has all the military resources, and has obtained 10,000 war horses, 50,000 pieces of armor, and 70,000 soldiers. In addition, with the help of Guo Yaoshi, within a few days, all the states and counties under Yanjing came to pay and surrender, which couldn't help but make Zong Wang surprised and happy, he didn't expect that the land of Yanjing would be pacified so quickly. He then led his troops to attack the Ansu army in Song Baozhou, but was met with extremely stubborn resistance. Although it was attacked for several days, there was no hope of breaking the city.

It was at this time that Wang Yan and Liu Bi, the guards of Zhongshan in the Song Dynasty, led 2,000 troops to surrender to Cheng, and asked Zongwang to send people to surrender. Zong Wang was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately sent two generals Pu Cha and Shenguo to lead three hundred cavalry to accompany him. Soon after the second general left, Pharmacist Guo came to see him for some reason. Zong Wang was chatting and happily told him that Song Zhongshan's guard had come to pay the money, and that he had sent the general Pucha and Shenguo to surrender.

After hearing this, Pharmacist Guo was shocked and said, "In this way, the lives of the two generals are worried!" Zong Wangzhi was stunned when he heard this, and said, "General, what do you mean by this?" Since our army entered Yanjing, there have been countless people who have come to pay their salaries, and they are all loyal, can it be said that this time there was an accident? Guo Yaoshi said: "Prince, it's not just an accident, the two generals will go this time, it must be more than lucky, and the prince has mistakenly fallen into the Song people's plan to surrender."

Hearing this, Zong Wang shook his head in disbelief, and said: "The Song people have always been cowardly, who dares to have the courage to come and surrender to me?" Unless he ate the gall of a leopard. Guo Yaoshi said: "The prince doesn't know, and now the prefect of Zhongshan Mansion in the Song Dynasty is Zhan Du. At that time, I was the deputy of Yanjing with this person, and I knew him very well. His people are quite wise and brave, because they are not in harmony with the last general, and they do not give in. After the court learned of this, it was afraid that the border ministers would lose peace and miss a major event. Therefore, the edict was issued to exchange Cai Jing and Zhan Du with each other. Zhan Du won the trust of the emperor of the Song Dynasty and treated him very well. Zhan Du also did his best to repay the favor of the court. How can a person like this easily come and pay and surrender? ”

When Zong Wang heard this, he immediately summoned the two generals Shu Liesu and Zhili Gai, and instructed him: "You two led 10,000 horses and horses to reinforce the two generals Pucha and Shenguo. If the two generals are kidnapped by the Song people, no matter what you think, you must rescue the two of them. "Shu Liesu and Zhili were ordered to gather 10,000 horses, and Guo Yaoshi sent people as guides to march in the direction of Zhongshan Mansion.

In addition, the two generals Pu Cha and Shenguo led 300 cavalry, followed by more than 2,000 Song soldiers led by Wang Yan and Liu Bi, and marched south. After a few days of walking, as we entered the mountains, the road became more and more difficult to walk. Pu Cha asked, "Why did you bring us to such a place, could it be that you are trying to play with some kind of ghostly fame?" Wang Yan said: "General Hugh should be suspicious, this is the only way to go directly to Zhongshan Mansion." If you pass these mountains, there is Yangguan Avenue in front.

When Pucha and Shenguo heard this, they believed it. Seeing that the mountain road in front of him was getting narrower and narrower, Shenguo gradually felt that something was wrong, so he discussed with Pu Cha, planning to no longer follow the Song army, but to lead his troops back from the original road. However, by this time it was too late. They had entered a narrow place, and saw that the walls stood on all sides, towering into the sky, and there was only a small flat river in the middle. The two men shouted almost at the same time: "We have been tricked, we have been tricked." "Turn the horse's head now, and wait to rush out of the same way.

At this moment, I could only hear the trumpets all around, and the sound of killing was loud. The Song army spread all over the mountains and fields, rushing over. In an instant, from the top of the surrounding cliffs, the crossbowmen of the Song army stood like a wall, condescending, and shot over like flying locusts. Poor Pucha, Shenguo and the three hundred cavalry they commanded, at this time there is really no way to go to the sky and no way to enter the ground. Dozens of arrows were shot at each of them, and one by one they became like hedgehogs, and none of them survived.

The Song army saw that the Jin army had been completely annihilated and was about to withdraw. Suddenly, I heard the sound of killing again, and it turned out that it was the reinforcements led by Shu Liesu and Zhili Gai who had arrived. They saw that the 30,000 people of the Song army were gathered here, and they had already anticipated what was happening in front of them, and immediately urged the army to fight. When the Song army saw it, they also desperately met the enemy. The battle lasted for several days, and in the end, both the Song and Jin armies paid a heavy price. The Song army suffered more than 20,000 casualties, and the Jin army also suffered more than half of the casualties. It was not until both sides were exhausted that they ceased fighting and withdrew.

Jin Guo used troops in the Song Dynasty this time, and there was no clear ultimate goal at the beginning. Jin Taizong Wu Qimai ordered the Eastern Route Army led by Zong Wang to enter Yanshan from Pingzhou, while the Western Route Army led by Mu Han entered Taiyuan from Xijing. From this, it can be inferred that their goal in attacking the Song Dynasty was to capture Yanjing and Taiyuan. Zong Wang never dreamed that the war in Yanjing would go so smoothly, so he wanted to take the leap and invade the Hebei region of the Song Dynasty. This was also due to the changing situation between the two countries at that time, which made Zongwang even more ambitious.

The annihilation of the entire army of Pucha and Shenguo, as well as the heavy casualties of Shuliesu and Zhili Reform Division, greatly angered Zongwang. He personally led his army south, intending to seek revenge on the Song soldiers. In the territory of Zhending, he met with 5,000 Song soldiers. Zongwang ordered Proudhun and Meng Ke to lead their own troops to outflank them from both flanks and defeat the Song soldiers.

The defeated soldiers of the Song Dynasty entered the territory of Zhongshan, and the Jin soldiers took the opportunity to attack Zanhuang County in the territory of Zhongshan Prefecture by pursuing the routed troops, and the weapons and armor battles obtained were countless. At this point, Zong Wang led all the generals of his subordinates to the place where Pucha and Shenguo died, and sacrificed their spirits in the sky. Ever since they died in battle, Zong Wang's heart has been suffering severe condemnation. He didn't want to shirk responsibility, this incident that shouldn't have happened in the first place was caused by his own indiscretion and carelessness. At the time of the sacrifice, he prayed to their heavenly spirits for forgiveness.

The next thing is whether to withdraw the troops or continue to march south, it is up to Zong Wang to judge the situation and make a choice. According to the powers given to them by Jin Taizong Wu Qimai, he and Sticky Han have the right to make decisions on an ad hoc basis.

After Zong Wang experienced the joy of receiving Yanjing and the pain of defeating Zhongshan Mansion, at this moment, his mind also became calm. To say that he would withdraw his troops, he had left an ambush line for this. When he and Cai Jing met at that time, they promised to make peace. When he led his troops south, he ordered Cai Jing to stay in Yanjing. Shen Xuan stayed in the camp and learned that Zongwang had the idea of peace discussion, but he was afraid that the matter would be shelved because he dropped out, so he drafted a book of peace and went directly to Jinting and gave it to Jin Taizong Wu to buy, which was the initial beginning of Song and Jin Yihe.

If he wants to continue south, then the first place he has to cross is Sindh Province. Judging from the information he had, Sindh Province expected to be heavily defended by the Song Dynasty. Since the defeat of Zhongshan, he began to have a new view of the Song army. Therefore, they are not confident in conquering Sindh. He is more worried about another outcome, that is, under the fortified city, the veteran soldiers of the division are tired and difficult to clean up.

At that time, Taishi happened to come to the army, and that night, Zong Wang asked him to look up at the heavens to observe the good fortune and misfortune of the emperor star. At the beginning, I saw that the Emperor Star was extinguished, shrouded in a layer of clouds and mist, eclipsed, not to mention any luster. Taishi said: "The treacherous spirit invaded the imperial palace, and the emperor of the Southern Dynasty was surrounded by many traitorous ministers. Only those who are obscure and dull are the image of the emperor's throne. ”

When Zong Wang heard this, he was overjoyed, thinking that the emperor of the Southern Dynasty was stupid and incompetent, the traitorous ministers were in charge of the country, and the villains were chaotic. Just as he was about to leave, he heard Taishi say: "Wait, the throne has changed again." When Zong Wang heard this, he stopped his steps.

After a while, Taishi said in a very surprised tone: "Prince, what is this all about?" You see, the clouds and mist surrounding the Emperor Star have gradually dissipated, and the Emperor Star has slowly begun to shine. Look, the prince is much brighter now than just now, and from this point of view, there are people in the Southern Dynasties. If the prince wants to act, he needs to be cautious. Remember, remember. ”

Zong Wang was shocked when he heard Taishi's words, and said: "The Southern Dynasty is not profitable. "So there is the intention of collecting troops and returning to the north. It turned out that the emperors and ministers in ancient times advocated superstition and used all kinds of celestial phenomena to deceive themselves. The so-called observation of celestial phenomena to determine the rise and fall is absolutely nonsense. Looking at it today, it is better to believe that it is not than to believe that it exists. Just because there is such a record in the historical data, it is compiled here to make a joke.

Let's say that the Jin people parted ways to invade the south, the East Route Army captured Yanjing, and the news of the West Route Army besieging Taiyuan City reached Bianjing, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty. Song Huizong believed in Taoism, and was respected by the sect as Yujing Jinque Qibao Yuantai Ziwei Shanggong Lingbao Zhizhen Yuchen Emperor Dao Jun. Therefore, the people of the past dynasties also called him the emperor of the Taoist room, which comes from this.

In the evening of the same day, Song Huizong went to the imperial Taoist temple to pray for help, and his words said: "Feng Yin Yuqing Shenxiao Bao Xianyuan 16 Yang 35 Xuanji 79 Fei Yuan Grand Master Du Tianjiao Master Chen, Cheng Cheng Shen Xiao Da Yang is always true and natural Jinque, the ministers are in the four seas, the children educate all the people, the fate is not thin, and there is no way to take the rule." Fighting and prospering, Fu was peaceful. With the temple of the temple, the people are pure, and the great treasure has been passed on to the heirs of the saint, and the few should be the heart of heaven, and the grass of the town will be under the town. The hope is to return to the far and the future, the universe is peaceful, and the foundation has a restless time, and China and foreign countries enjoy the joy of peace. If the thieves are tired of halberds, Pu rate Corning. After that, the minister kept the way, was happy to be idle, and the sky was clear, and the minister dared to be delusional. In the future, it will be decided that there will be reforms, and if you look at your old job, you will be punished. has prayed, or when it comes, it is more likely to descend the calamity, and stop bowing. The foundation of the Shu'an Sect Society, the blessing of the masses. Wang Bing rests forever, Wanbang Xianning. Hope for true kindness, special reflection. The minister is willing to take Shenxiao on duty and Cao to hold the minister's secret table, go to the three mansions of Shenxiao Yuqing, introduce Xiancao, and report to the palace. Chen Cheng was frightened, and he paused his head and bowed again. ”

In this prayer, Song Huizong asks for help from the Flying Heavenly Master Dutian Sect Master, whom he believes, and at the same time has the meaning of Zen position.

When Tong Guan fled back to the capital from Taiyuan under the pretext of going to the Que Ceremony, Yu Wenxu was also in Taiyuan as a senator. He has always thought that Miao Mo made a mistake, the coach is not human, and there will be a disaster of insulting **** and writing and saying things, which has not been adopted. Hearing the news of the invasion of the Jin soldiers, he resolutely advocated resistance. When Tong Guan coerced him back to Bianliang, it was already September. At this time, the news of the siege of Taiyuan by the sticky Han soldiers also reached the capital.

When Yuwen Xuzhong came to meet Song Huizong, the emperor, who was helpless at that time, regretted it. He said to Yuwen Xuzhong: "I think Wang Hao didn't need to say anything at the beginning, which led to today's troubles. Now that the Jin people are advancing in two ways, the situation is like this, what can I do about it? Yuwen Xuzhong said: "Today, we should first issue an edict for the guilty, and reform the evils." When the people's hearts are happy and the providence returns, they will choose the generals and set up defenses to save the overall situation. ”

Song Huizong was already at a loss at that time, and when he heard this, he immediately ordered Yu Wenxu to draft an edict. This sin? His edict reads: "I use the quality of ignorance to make a profit. The words are blocked, and the interview is full of news. Grace holds power, greed and ambition; The gentry and virtuous people are trapped in the party membership, and the rise and fall of political affairs are confined to the chronicles. Accumulate the wealth of the exhausted people, and the strength of the army in need; It is useless to do more, and extravagance has become a trend. The source of profit has been exhausted, and the profit-seekers are still wantonly. The armies are fed and clothed from time to time, and the redundant eaters enjoy riches. I don't realize when I see the disaster, and I don't know when I am resentful. Chasing after the maintenance has been sorrowful, what is the regret. Thought. Solve the big problem. Look at the division of the king of the four seas, and announce the strategy of the two sides to resist the enemy. Forever remember the virtue of winning benevolence and cultivating the world for more than a hundred years. Is there no loyal and righteous person from all over the world who comes to the urgent needs of the country for a day! In response to the orders of the towns, counties and counties under the sky, each led the king of Qin. Those who can make miraculous contributions, and give excellent rewards. Those who can build great plans for the country or go to other frontiers are not subordinate. Chinese and foreign ministers, and Xu Zhenyan is extremely admonished. Song Huizong read it, felt deeply, and said: "If you don't hesitate to change it today, you can implement it." At the time of the edict, among the common people, there were many people who wept bitterly because of their excitement.

Under the critical situation, Song Huizong was anxious to get the talent of a general who was good at resisting the enemy. In the end, I thought of Yao Gu, the commander of Xihe, and Qin Feng, and planned to order them to lead their own soldiers and horses between Zhengzhou and Luoyang, to aid Heyang externally, and to defend the capital internally. Song Huizong Gu Yuwen Xuzhong said: "Qing and Yao Gu, the master is like brothers, and it is advisable to protect his army with one envoy." Then he appointed Yuwen Xuzhong as a senior scholar of the palace and a pre-military proclamator. After Yuwen Xuzhong was ordered, he immediately sent Yao Gu and the seed master Dao to lead their troops and horses, and went straight to Bianjing to help.

In order to prevent the Jin people from going south, the prime minister Xiang Shizhong was in power, and he paid Liang Fangping to the forbidden army to serve the mighty army to guard Liyang, and then transferred the infantry army to Yu Hou He Guan to lead the troops to help. He Guan said to Prime Minister Xiang Shizhong: "The Jin people are pouring the country from afar, and their front is unstoppable. Now that Fang Ping is leading the elite of the capital to go, in case he doesn't support it, what will I rely on to be good to my future and protect my roots? Xiang Shizhong didn't care, and the next day he ordered He Guan to lead his troops. He Guan resigned again on the grounds that the army was unbearable. Even so, Xiang Shizhong did not agree, and appointed him as the envoy of the Wutai Army, and the deputy envoy of the Hedong and Hebei Road systems.
