The cold air from Siberia swept the north and south of the river, the Central Plains of the Great Song Dynasty was covered by heavy snow, the white one seemed to be able to hide something, even if it was a cold winter in Bianjing City in the past, it was still difficult to hide its prosperity and liveliness, on the Vermilion Bird Street, the east market and the west market were still rubbing shoulders, some literati and ink writers may be nostalgic for the green building, or invite three or five friends to play in the ancient temple in the deep mountains, or watch the plum blossoms in the snow, or the red clay small furnace, a pot of fine wine and so on.

Even those people who are under the riba will wear heavy clothes at this time, or light firewood in the hall to warm their cold bodies, but this year in Bianjing City is quiet, some people dare not walk around the streets, the news of the defeat of hundreds of thousands of troops in Hebei reached Bianjing, Bianjing people did not believe it at first, and soon someone came to the news that the entire Yellow River had been dyed red. There were even many corpses flowing down from the upper reaches of the Yellow River, blocking the Yellow River.

The Yellow River itself in winter is a dry period, and now the heavy snow has fallen, and some of the rivers downstream have frozen, and the corpses come from the upstream, frozen together, and the appearance is very terrifying, and the frightened people dare not approach the Yellow River.

Compared with the lower-class people, Zhao Huan in the palace is also in fear, if it is perennial, the emperor Zhao Ji may wait for Gen Yue, let people serve the superior decree, use the pine smoke ancient ink of the queen of Li, light ambergris, and leave a picture of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains on the picture scroll, even Zhao Huan will invite a few literati into the East Palace to talk about poetry with each other.

But now it is different, as the emperor, Zhao Huan bears the heavy burden of Jiangshan Sheji, and the hundreds of thousands of troops in Hebei who were regarded as reinforcements by Li Gang were instantly defeated, and the dead and wounded pillows mean that the imperial court has lost an elite soldier and horse, whether it can defeat the Jin people, even Li Gang himself is not at all sure.

"Damn Tong Guan, damn fellow, if it weren't for the incompetence of this eunuch, how would I have lost more than 100,000 troops, and more than 100,000 horses would have been lost like this, and I can't wait to punish his nine clans." Zhao Huan's breathing was very heavy, and it sounded in the hall, which was enough to show how angry he was in his heart at this moment, an army of more than 100,000 was not more than 100,000 pigs and sheep, so it was destroyed by people, and Zhao Huan was knocked down from the top of the nine heavens at once. The reason why he promised Li Gang at the beginning to resolutely resist the Jin people, in addition to not wanting to lose his majesty, is more important because there are still more than 100,000 troops in Hebei, but he didn't expect this kind of thing to happen at this time, which made him very angry in his heart.

Everyone sighed slightly when they heard this, the reason why Tong Guan failed was also in everyone's expectations, the hundreds of thousands of troops looked like a lot, but most of the hundreds of thousands of people were rebels in the north, not as well-trained as the forbidden army, and the city defense, grain and grass of the Daimyo's Mansion were not enough for Tong Guan to hold on for a long time, and breaking through became a must for Tong Guan.

In the face of the cavalry of the Jin people, the army of more than 100,000 is really not enough, it is rumored that there are more than 10,000 soldiers who escaped the Yellow River, and they can escape the Yellow River under the attack of the Jin people on both sides, and there are more than 10,000 people, Tong Guan can also be regarded as having some ability.

But at this time, no one in the crowd will speak for Tong Guan, Tong Guan is insidious and greedy, and is despised by everyone. Tong Guan has held military power for more than ten years, and if Tong Guan is not solved, how can everyone share the benefits. Of course, the most important thing is the contradiction between Zhao Huan and Tong Guan, among the six thieves, only Liang Shicheng and Zhao Huan have a good relationship, and the other thieves either want to tear him off the crown prince, or they don't put the other party in their eyes, and speak for Tong Guan, that is, they have offended Zhao Huan, how can everyone offend the current son for a person they don't like!

"Your Majesty, one general is incompetent, affecting the three armies. Tong Guan is such a person, and please punish His Majesty severely. Zheng Juzhong said. Everyone immediately knew that Tong Guan's downfall was imminent, and they immediately spoke out one after another, suggesting that Tong Guan be deposed.

"If the decree continues, Tong Guan is incompetent, loses his teacher and humiliates the country, dismisses all official titles, and deposes him as a commoner." Zhao Huan clenched his teeth and said. He finally let out a bad breath, and the whole person became much more relaxed, even if there was still a golden siege outside at this time, he had a little more smile on his face.

The holy decree was written quickly, and hundreds of miles away, Tong Guan did not know that his fate had been decided, and he was still thinking about how to fight back against the Jin people and make a certain contribution to the defense of Bianjing City.

"Mr. Liang Xi, how is the defense in the city? Can you resist the attack of the Jinren? Zhao Huan still looked at Li Gang with some concern.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, Bianjing City is impregnable, and it is definitely not something that the Jin people can break, and the forbidden army and rangers in the city have already been organized. Now the weather is cold, the enemy is having trouble with food and grass, and he will definitely withdraw his troops soon. Li Gang almost patted his chest and said.

"That's very good." Zhao Huan nodded, the melancholy between his eyebrows still existed, he thought about it, and still took back the words in his heart, since he had made preparations to resist, he knew that at this time, some words could never be said.

"It's just that the daily consumption of grain and grass in the city is very large, and the minister thinks that it is now possible to collect grain and grass from some rich households, so as not to cause unnecessary changes when things come to an end." Li Gang said again.

There is a canal through Bianjing City, communicating the north and south, the transportation is convenient, it can be said that it is the transportation hub of the Great Song Dynasty, countless ships pass through Bianjing City, and it has long been the prosperity of Bianjing City, if it is placed in the past, the grain and grass naturally do not have to worry, and the grain and grass that pass through Bianjing every day do not know how much, but the Jin people besieged Bianjing City and blocked the canal, and the Great Song Dynasty found that there is not much grain and grass in the market in Bianjing, and those merchants just turn over grain and grass, and do not store much grain and grass, anyway, there are a large number of grain merchants passing by every day, Where is needed to store food. Now that the Jin people are blockading the city, it has changed all of a sudden.

How many people are there in Bianjing, according to historical records, there are 440,000 people in Bianjing, these people only record men, plus women, etc., the population is about more than one million, these people do not know how much food they consume every day, and the food circulating in Bianjing city is simply not enough. Li Gang was not worried about the food in the army, but about the food of the ordinary people in Bianjing.

"Covered with heavy snow, the Jin people may not stay long, it's better to wait, if the grain is levied now, it will cause panic in the city, maybe because the soldiers are brave, Lord Li commands properly, the Jin people will withdraw their troops soon, so there is no need to levy grain, this is the best thing." Zhang Bangchang couldn't help but laugh. The rest of the ministers nodded one after another, saying yes, these guys are more or less related to those grain merchants, and if they are forcibly expropriated, the grain merchants will suffer losses, and they themselves will suffer heavy losses. So they are opposed.
