Chapter 356: Embark on the Way Home

"It's just that thirteen years ago, the Tamna Kingdom was annexed by Goryeo and set up as the ...... of Tamna County"

Lin Chong was happy when he heard it, he was still a little worried about rashly attacking this Tamna Island.

After all, the Chinese Celestial Empire is a big country, no matter what you do, you must be upright and justifiable.

Attacking Goryeo proper, Lin Chong can also be said to have recovered the homeland of the Han and Tang dynasties and crusaded against Buchen.

Because whether it is Goryeo or Silla, the predecessor inherited by Goryeo, it has always been based on the Central Plains Huaxia, and it is a subject state of the Tang Dynasty and the Song Dynasty.

However, not long after the Song Dynasty was regarded as Zhengshuo, because the Song Dynasty was too cowardly, Goryeo began to use the Khitan era name, regarded the Liao State as Zhengshuo, and broke off diplomatic relations with the Song Dynasty.

Although during the reign of Emperor Shenzong of the Song Dynasty, seeing that Zhao Ji's father Zhao Ji was a promising emperor, Goryeo sent envoys to sue for peace, asking for the restoration of diplomatic relations with the Song Dynasty, and sending people to pay tribute.

This was originally nothing, but while Goryeo came to the Song Dynasty to pay tribute (and made a lot of money when he came to China to pay tribute), the other side continued to serve the Liao State as Zhengshuo.

This is stepping on two boats, one daughter and two marriages, eating and lodging, and it is extremely shameless.

Zhao Song acquiesced in this matter for various reasons, but it did not prevent Lin Chong from using this as an excuse to crusade against Goryeo.

Whether it is to recover the homeland of the Han and Tang Dynasties or to crusade against the unministers, the reasons are incomparably sufficient and legitimate.

However, there is a point where attacking Tamna Island does not make legal sense.

If Tamna had not been annexed by Goryeo, it would still be a country, after all, China has always occupied this place, and Tamna has never submitted to China.

In fact, if you really want to pull it, you can pull it.

For example, the Tamna kingdom was subordinate to Silla and Goryeo, and was a vassal state of Silla and Goryeo, and Goryeo was a vassal state of the Song Dynasty. But after all, it's a bit too, and the two are not directly related after all.

But now that the Tamna Kingdom has been annexed by Goryeo, a ready-made excuse has been sent to the door.

That is to help Tamna restore the country and temporarily live on Tamna Island.

Anyway, according to Yanqing, this so-called Tamna country has a population of only a few thousand, so let them always be a country of their own, give them more benefits to help them build a new home, improve their lives, what is it for themselves? But there is a name.

After settling down these Han people from the north, settling down on Tamna Island, and building a batch of sea ships, the Liangshan army can directly send troops to conquer Goryeo, crusade against the unsubordinate, and recover my homeland of the Han and Tang dynasties in China!

Thinking about these things clearly, Lin Chong's mood suddenly became very good, and he went back to the cabin early to sleep.

After a night without a word, the two battleships arrived at night, and returned to Jinzhou before dawn in the early morning.

When Wanyan Wushu, Wanyan Yinshuke, and nearly 500 Jurchen heads appeared at Jinzhou Wharf, it really caused a great shock in the crowd.

And this news, which shocked these Northland Han people, immediately flew along the line of Jinzhou and Sichuanzhou, and all the Northland Han people couldn't help but be stunned after hearing it.

Over the years, the Liao army has always been defeated again and again against the Jurchens, and they are all shameful defeats with disparity in strength, and for these Han people in the north, the Jurchens are invincible.

Even the tent army of the Liao State Palace and the pro-army of the Xi Wangfu are not the opponents of the Jurchens, and there is no army in the world that can stand in front of the Jurchen Iron Cavalry.

Because of this, when they heard that the Jurchen army was coming, local heroes and local officials like Yang Xunqing, Luo Ziwei, and Li Sanxi immediately led the crowd to surrender.

Although the Jurchens are a little brutal, they can still be the servants of the two devils if they surrender; If they refuse to surrender or dare to resist, they will only be slaughtered by the Jurchens in the end, or they will be taken into slavery.

But after these made up their minds to surrender to the "Jurchens", they suddenly discovered that the other party turned out to be a fake Jurchen army, but the Liangshan army that rebelled in the Southern Dynasties.

Although the performance of the Liangshan army is not inferior to that of the Jurchen army, and Lin Chong also made it clear to them after the showdown: The Liangshan army is different from the Song army, the combat power of the Han army has always been the strongest, and if you voluntarily join the Han army and are willing to serve me, I will give you the rank of advancement and treat you as equals!

Although when Lin Chong asked them to make a choice, all the people who had already served them expressed their willingness to die for Lin Chong, after all, there was no other choice at that time, and some of them had no other ideas afterwards.

But who would have thought that this time the Liangshan army sent 200 cavalry to the Jurchens, but they insisted on bringing back nearly 500 heads of the Jurchen barbarians, and also captured the Jurchen people's fourth prince Wanyan Wushu, who is famous for his bravery, and the general Wanyan Yinshuke in the army.

Even the eldest son of the Jurchen Crown Prince Wanyan Wu begging, Wanyan Puluhu was picked by the Lin army lord with a shot in the army of ten thousand, and his head was cut off!

All these Northland Han people were stunned at once.

I can't believe that even the Jurchen Army is not the opponent of the Liangshan Army, and the combat effectiveness of the Liangshan Army is simply amazing!

Before the Lin army lord has always said that the Han army is mighty and invincible, everyone still doesn't believe it, at this time he is finally completely convinced, it seems that the strongest in the world, the real invincible division, is still the Liangshan army!

After the great shock, it is to act immediately, and those who have led the crowd to serve before are immediately busy offering their loyalty again, taking the initiative to ask for things, and not to mention doing more dedication;

It turned out that he only sent some children of the clan to serve, and he still wanted to continue to wait and see, at this time, he personally brought all the young people in the village to serve, not to mention how respectful and enthusiastic he was to talk and do.

Take Lin Chong as an example, he was treated as an emperor by these Han people in the north, and everywhere he went, the heroes of the fortresses everywhere were all kneeling on the ground; After accompanying all the good words and smiling faces, he also sent his son to Lin Chong as a personal attendant.

For these things, Lin Chong is naturally happy to see them come to fruition.

This is human nature, it is the law of survival in the Northland, and strength is king.

As long as the strength is shown, there will be countless people who will join the force, which is much more direct and practical than in the Song Dynasty.

The morale of the army is like this, and the defense line of the Liangshan army in Jinzhou and Sichuan is impregnable, as long as Sichuan is held, the Liao army will not be able to pass for the time being; As long as the section of the river from Haibei Prefecture to the mouth of the Daling River is guarded, the Jurchens will not be able to fight for the time being.

Lin Chong stayed in Liaodi for two days, and seeing that the day of the expedition to Western Xia agreed with Chen Zongshan was approaching, Lin Chong once again handed over the defense and management of Liaodi to Xu Guanzhong and Du Bai, and took Wang Feiyu and others, as well as Aliqi, Han Chang, and a group of powerful children who served in the north to return to the Great Song Dynasty by boat.

Along the way, although it was not smooth sailing, there were no twists and turns, with three days and three nights, the fleet arrived at the mouth of the Beiqing River, because in a hurry, Lin Chong asked Hu Yanqing to continue to drive the sea boat along the waterway slowly, and he took dozens of personal guards and the new Aliqi, Han Chang and others to ride horses to Liangshan.
