Chapter 1367: Six Thieves

Kaifeng, Dazaifu.

Xiao Gan rebelled, and the East Thieves invaded Taiyuan Mansion in a big way, and even Ke Chitang Pass, Baijing Village, and the bad news that the soldiers were in Taiyuan Mansion came down. Ji Yi's decline in "Ji Zhongtang" is obviously no longer able to hide it.

In the past, this treacherous minister was always straight, with a loud voice, and a generous bearing between talking and laughing. The impression is that everything is under control!

Even when the Zhou and Song dynasties went to war and Hebei and Jingdong East Road were in flames, Prime Minister Ji still barely maintained his prime minister's bearing. It wasn't until eight days ago that Xiao Gan rebelled against the Song Dynasty and surrendered to Zhou, and the news that the Zhou army had entered Hedong, where the army was empty, came, and the Ji traitor who had been trying his best to maintain it suddenly withered a lot, and the whole person looked a lot older.

As long as anyone who knows a little about the defense of the northern land of the Great Song Dynasty knows that the eastern thief can be regarded as a knife inserted in the soft underbelly of the defense of the Great Song Dynasty.

Hedong was originally not bordered by the Zhou State, and there was also a territory of the Jin State in between. And the terrain is not conducive to the offensive. Sending troops from Yizhou in the Zhou State, along the way to pass through six passes, such as Flying Fox Trail, Bottle Pass, Xinkou Village, Shiling Pass, Chitang Pass, and Baijing Village, and marching more than 700 miles to reach the city of Taiyuan.

Although none of these six passes are bastions, the defensive bonuses brought by the dangerous terrain are only above the bastions.

Besides, even if the 700-mile road is a normal march, it will take more than ten days, plus the time that the six passes can be held, how can it withstand a month or two, right?

For such a long time, the Great Song Dynasty was able to send elite troops to aid Taiyuan Jiancheng, and use the defense of Taiyuan City to continue to block the Zhou army. If it is properly deployed and the troops are relatively sufficient, it is possible to resist the next few months.

At that time, the Zhou army was not only tired of the veterans of the division, but most of the logistics would not continue, so they had to retreat in disgrace.

However, Ji Da treacherous minister and Zhang Shuye, who knew the affairs of the Privy Council, just missed Xiao Gan's surrender and defected to the enemy!

Oh, and it's not an omission. But after the war between Hebei and Jingdong Road, the strength of the new army of the Song State was a little stretched. There are more than 300,000 in total, Hebei, Hedong, and southeast coasts, and they have to be deployed everywhere, where is enough?

If there are not enough soldiers and horses, there will be even less money!

The 100 million yuan that he had borrowed from businessmen in eight southeastern states and one country had not yet arrived. In order to raise 180,000 new troops as soon as possible, Prime Minister Ji had to tear down the east wall to make up for the west wall, and diverted all the money that could be diverted to recruit troops. Even the court officials' salaries have not been issued for months!

At the same time as the embezzlement of local reserves and officials' salaries, all expenditures that were not the most urgently needed were also cut by the prime minister. Among them, the Hebei Xuanfu Envoy reported the expenses of holding regimental exercises on Hedong Road, and recruiting troops to defend Chitang Pass, Baijing Village, and Sanjiaokou (at the foot of Dongshan Mountain, the northern gateway of Taiyuan Mansion).

Who would have thought that this house leak happened to rain overnight, and Taiyuan Mansion City was placed under the cannon of the Eastern Thief Army in a blink of an eye.

If Taiyuan is not protected, where will the next target of the East Thief be? Izumi attacked the back of the Zhaoyi army, or went to Weisheng Army, Longde Mansion, Zezhou, and Huaizhou...... And then there's the Yellow River!

It's scary to think about!

Thinking of this, Ji Yi was a little dizzy, and when he was dizzy, he heard his son Ji Jun's voice: "My lord...... There is news from the Biyong School Palace, and the retro party is brewing a book on the bus again, and it seems that they are going to impeach your old man in an urgent way through Hedong...... There are also people who list you, Tong Daofu, Wang Jiangming, Liang Shoudao, Su Zhongnan, and Pan Xiao'an as six thieves! ”

As soon as Ji Yi looked up, he saw that his son's eyes were dark, and the whole person was haggard, holding a stack of official documents as if he could fall down at any time.

He also sighed in his heart, this son was really tired of him! With Ji Jun's intelligence, it is not a problem to take the Jinshi exam. But Ji Yi just asked him to learn a new school, Gezhi Academy and Shanghai Arts and Sciences! But there is no Jinshi fame......

And in order to have a good reputation in the clear stream, Ji Yi didn't ask Zhao Ji to give Ji Jun a jinshi to open the back door. Therefore, Ji Jun has always been born in Menyin and followed Ji Yi as a staff member, and now he has also been promoted to a court official, and he also worships Taifu Temple. Actually, it's not bad, but it's always a pity to not have a jinshi, and you can only rely on the shadow of your father to be an official for the rest of your life.

If he is really defeated by the retro party, this son is afraid that he will also finish playing......

Thinking of the retro party, Ji Yi was a little blocked. Their views cannot be said to be wrong. Annexation, land equalization, and government soldiers are indeed good ways to save the country.

But the Great Song Dynasty has its own national conditions here!

For more than 160 years, the dynasty has not suppressed annexation, that is, it has hired people to serve as soldiers, that is, it is only to read high, and it is to use articles to learn scholars...... These are all in strings, and one part of it cannot be taken out for reform without touching the others.

The matter of the government soldiers was mentioned as early as Fan Zhongyan's Qingli New Deal, but without Juntian, how can he engage in government soldiers? The landlords with land all went to study and progress, and let the poor pay out of their own pockets to become government soldiers? How did Fan Zhongyan come up with it? Fortunately, just think about it, if you really do it, Da Song will be gone!

And Wang Anshi didn't dare to suppress the merger, so he just started a business of robbing usury by the Qingmiao Law, and then tossed the businessman.

touched the most fundamental interests of the landlord class intellectuals, hehe, Wang Anshi must not be torn apart?

As for the current merger, isn't that forcing the world's corporal doctors to take refuge in the Great Zhou Kingdom?

Da Zhou is not a bald barbarian, and he is also a state of China. The reason why the scholars of the Great Song Dynasty opposed the Zhou State was because the Great Zhou suppressed the annexation; The second is because the Great Zhou does not hold the imperial examination.

And the imperial examination and annexation and conscription systems are actually linked...... The imperial examination ensured that the landlord class intellectuals monopolized the officialdom, while the conscription system decoupled the state's military resources from the land, making the suppression of annexation no longer a necessary policy of the state.

To put it bluntly, not suppressing annexation is to protect the interests of the landlord class intellectuals! And the conscription system was also to defend the power held by the landlord class intellectuals.

All three are all together!

How could the retro party want to deprive the scholars of their greatest interests on the premise of keeping the Shidaifu regime?

Looking at his father's gray beard with sorrow, Ji Jun's eyes were hot and rainy, and he held back his tears, "My lord, or you will retreat and ask the county to go to Jiangnan ......"

Ji Yi raised his hand: "Do you think it's okay to invite the county?" He took a breath, "I can't take half a step back now." If I can bear it, my family will be in the community...... If you can't bear it, your father will have to stay in Dazai's position until the day when the city of Kaifeng is broken!

Otherwise, it would not only be He Li who will come to power, but also the prince! ”

Ji Jun took a sharp breath, "My lord, what did you say?" ”

Ji Yi waved his hand, "Don't ask, don't ask...... You can't go as a father! But I can arrange for you to go! You can transfer military resources to lead the troops, and arrange for your father to go to Xuzhou! ”

"To Xuzhou?"

"Yes!" Ji Yi nodded, "Xuzhou is a critical place, once Kaifeng changes, you can protect our family with two thousand soldiers and horses in Xuzhou." ”

"But, is it too late?" Ji Jun asked, "The move in Beijing will be on the book in a few days!" ”

"It's too late, it's too late...... There is a plan for the Father! Ji Yi gritted his teeth, "When the news of the East Thief's entry into Hedong came, he arranged a backup move for his father!" ”

As he was talking, he saw a nephew of Ji Yi walking in in a hurry, his face full of joy. When he saw Ji Yi, he raised the paperwork in his hand and said loudly, "Dazai! Dazai! Taiyuan Zhang Xuanshuai Military News, Taiyuan Victory! Taiyuan victory! ”

Ji Yi sighed when he heard this, turned his head and said to his son: "Zhang Yongxiguo does not live up to me, as soon as he reports the victory, I can go to the world for a while, and immediately arrange for you to go out of Beijing to lead the troops!"

Remember, no matter what happens, you can't hand over your military power! If Kaifeng Mansion is besieged, welcome the King of the East China Sea into Xuzhou! ”

"What?" Ji Jun's legs trembled when he heard this, and he almost sat on the ground, "My lord, what do you want to do?" ”

Ji Yi glared at his son, "What to do?" Of course, it's to save your life! ”

The good news of Taiyuan Mansion is also an art of writing! That is, Zhang Xiaochun, who is not only a Jinshi, but also proficient in military strategy, can write.

On the good news, Zhang Daxuanshuai described the victory of the Sanjiaokou defense battle in rich and colorful colors! That's really singing and crying, Xuanshuai Zhang Xiaochun, and Liu Guangshi, the commander of the Xuanfu Division, all came to the front line in person to supervise and command. Under their wise leadership, the Taiyuan army and civilians fought hard for five hours, killed countless enemies, and finally returned to the city in triumph.

And on the second day of the Battle of Sanjiaokou, the Taiyuan defenders fought with the East Thieves in the four fortresses of Dongshan - these four fortresses are not fortresses, but they are built by the mountain, which is very dangerous!

On that day, tens of thousands of soldiers of the Eastern Thieves took turns to feint and attack the fortress. The defenders of Taiyuan were condescending, killing and wounding a large number of thieves with bows, crossbows, and guns. After a day of bloody fighting, he killed countless thieves and soldiers, and returned to the city again.

After these two battles, the Eastern Thieves suffered heavy losses and were no longer able to attack Taiyuan Jiancheng!

"The first battle of the three crossings, and then the four forts of Dongshan, and now it is said that it is necessary to defend the fortified city of Taiyuan...... This is also considered two battles and two victories? The fact that the East Thief was able to attack Taiyuan City means that he has already taken the three crossings and the four major forts of Dongshan! It's only been two days! Such two dangers were lost in two days, how many days can this Taiyuan City be defended? ”

Zhang Jun, who had just been transferred back from the Hedong front line and served as the head of the military engine room of the Privy Council, just shook his head again and again when he looked at the good news sent by the Xuanfu Division of Hedong.

He Li listened to Zhang Jun's analysis, and just sneered: "Zhang Yongxi is a traitor to Ji, he must have lied about the victory on Ji Yi's orders." Look at it, Ji Yi will definitely transfer him to Shuofang or Shaanxi! ”

"Ji thief doesn't care about Taiyuan?" Zhang Jun frowned, "If there is a mistake in Taiyuan, doesn't the East Thief want to drive long and fight all the way to the city of Kaifeng Mansion?" ”

He Li nodded, "Maybe if the soldiers really come to the city, there will be a turnaround in the world of the Great Song Dynasty!" ”
