Chapter 567: Fleeing to Mobei
Wu Gang left this place that he had guarded for more than ten years, went away, and was willing to become an ordinary person. Then, the generals of the other two states also came to Danzhou to meet Zhao Gou, and the choices of the two of them were strikingly similar to those of Wuhan Iron and Steel, and they were unwilling to continue to fight on the battlefield.
Moreover, the two of them left in the same direction as Wuhan Iron and Steel. It can be said that the three of them walked in the same place as if they had already been discussed, and the most important thing was the friendship between brothers, which made Zhao Gou have to admire.
"The last three states have been recovered, so the sixteen states of Yanyun are completely in the hands of the Great Song Dynasty!" Zhao Gou was elated, and his long-standing wish was finally fulfilled, "With the sixteen states of Yanyun as a barrier, even if the Jin soldiers invade the south, they have to weigh it." As long as the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun have been in the hands of the Great Song Dynasty, it will be difficult for the Jin soldiers to attack the Great Song Dynasty. ”
Zhao Yougong said with a smile: "The current Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures must become the best barrier in the Great Song Dynasty, so it will be foolproof." ”
Zhao Gou said in a deep voice: "It's still a little bit foolproof, you must know that after the Khitan is destroyed, the Jurchens will definitely not give up." Now that the sixteen states of Yanyun are all in our hands, if we want it to become a monolith, we must increase the defensive strength of the border passes. ”
"I have asked my father for a decree so that the army does not have to return to the Central Plains, and all of them remain in the sixteen states of Yanyun. As for the place where Han Shizhong, Yue Fei and the other four people guarded it has been implemented, the next thing is the city guarded by other generals. ”
Zhao Yougong frowned and said, "Ninth brother, if you let all the generals guard in the sixteen states of Yanyun, I am afraid that there will be opposition from the court." After all, most of the generals who followed the army this time were under your command, and I am afraid that in this way, some people will say that you are 'king in the north', which will be very disadvantageous to you. ”
"Second brother, don't worry about this!" Zhao Gofeng smiled lightly and said, "The Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun are the last wishes of the ancestors, and now they have been fulfilled. Father Emperor will definitely pay attention to the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, even if someone says it, don't worry, but this time after we return to Beijing, we need to keep a low profile. ”
"Is the tree a big deal?" Zhao Yougong said in a low voice, and Zhao Gou also nodded.
Now that the sixteen states of Yanyun have been recovered, the next thing is the return of the class teacher. However, Zhao Gou did not return to Beijing immediately, but continued to stay in Danzhou, because he was waiting for the opportunity. If the troops are withdrawn at this time, and the sixteen states of Yanyun have not been settled, I am afraid that they will be lost again if they are finally captured.
Zhao Gou led a large army to capture the sixteen states of Yanyun, which was a great achievement, and even the soldiers who followed the expedition must be reused by the imperial court. However, officialdom is like this, the greater the credit, the more low-key it is necessary, and if it is high-profile, it is afraid of provoking taboos.
Even if Song Huizong is favored and is a prince, he must keep a low profile. After all, Bianjing City is at the foot of the imperial city, and you must not act recklessly, nor can you be arrogant about your achievements, so as not to shock the lord. Moreover, the crown prince Zhao Huan is still here, but I am afraid that the things behind will not be so simple.
Zhao Gou was also thinking about this, and he always felt that something was wrong, as if something big would happen. Because these days, he has been paying attention to the situation in Bianjing, and still does not see any changes. Neither the ministers nor the crown prince made any trouble, and the only strange thing was that the prince appeared in the court again after the New Year.
The Lunar New Year has passed, and Zhao Gou's gift to himself is Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, and Song Huizong is the same, smiling. At this moment, Song Huizong's face was full of pride, and the domineering spirit of dominating the world appeared on him.
"Second brother, how is the battle between the Khitan and the Jurchen?"
Zhao Yougong replied: "It's not optimistic! ”
Zhao Yougong said the news reported by the spies 1510, just as Zhao conceived, the battle between Liao and Jurchen was simply a one-sided situation, Liao had no chance of winning, and the Jurchens won the game.
After the Zhongjing Dading Mansion was breached, the Jurchen army was like a bamboo, and it attacked until the Liao Tianzuo Emperor won the imperial city, which made the Tianzuo Emperor very worried. Emperor Tianzuo, who was still drinking and having fun, didn't have that mind at this time, he was scared.
Emperor Tianzuo was afraid that he would lose everything, and he was even more afraid of losing his life. In the face of life, everything else is external to the body.
Therefore, Emperor Tianzuo issued a holy decree, ordering all the armies to gather together and be sure to hold the last barrier. Strange to say, the combat effectiveness of the Khitans at the last moment was a little incredible even for the Jurchens, and the battle lasted for half a month, and the two armies could not hold each other.
Emperor Tianzuo, who had never been in battle to kill the enemy, appeared on the front line of the battle for the first time, and he was reluctant to come, but after persuasion from the ministers and after thinking about it, he still came.
Because Emperor Tianzuo appeared in the army, it was inspiring and boosted the morale of the Liao army, and they blocked the offensive of the Jin soldiers one after another.
At the same time, the Song army had completely recovered the sixteen states of Yanyun, which made Wan Yan Sheng angry and anxious, and he directly ordered an all-out attack, no matter how much the price was paid, he must take the head of the Tianzuo Emperor and completely destroy the Liao Dynasty.
In addition, Wan Yan Sheng even ordered that whoever kills the head of Emperor Tianzuo will be directly crowned the king and given a fief; The head of the king of the North Courtyard was promoted three levels in a row, and he was rewarded with gold and silver, and there were even rewards such as mansions.
Under the heavy reward, the combat effectiveness of the Jin soldiers increased greatly, which made the Liao army retreat in the later battles, and finally retreated to the imperial city to guard. However, the Jurchen army followed closely and killed all the way, like divine help, and all the soldiers seemed to have inexhaustible strength, pouring out one after another, in order to take down the head of the Liao minister, and then get the reward.
Wan Yan Sheng is not a person who does not believe in his word, and the promises he made are fulfilled one by one, which makes the Jurchen army boil up and down, rushing forward to kill one after another, even disregarding life and death.
"Ladies and gentlemen, what should I do now?" Emperor Tianzuo looked at everyone worriedly, expecting everyone to give good advice.
Everyone looked at each other, lowered their heads one after another, and no one was willing to speak. Now such a situation is simply doomed to the destruction of Daliao, even if they don't want to admit it, they have to admit that this time they are really desperate.
"Your Majesty, the situation is clear!" The minister's words were not clear, but they understood what they meant, and everyone was silent, and he continued: "Stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood!" Your Majesty, it's better to retreat! ”
"Retreat? Where can you retreat! Emperor Tianzuo smiled bitterly, there are now Jin soldiers to attack, if the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun are still there, they can temporarily retreat, but they have all been lost, and there is really no way to retreat.
"If you really retreat, there is only one way to go, retreat to Mobei!" Another person said in a deep voice, "Mobei is the northernmost part of the Great Liao, and the Jurchens are not familiar with this place, and the route is only known to us, and they don't know where to chase it; And our army can also retreat first, and then make a comeback in the future. ”
Emperor Tianzuo also felt that it was okay when he heard it, and Mobei rarely went to it. That place was originally the former position of the Great Liao, and the Jurchens were not familiar with it and did not know how to pursue it.
Therefore, Emperor Tianzuo decided to 'retreat' to Mobei and make a comeback in the future.
