Wanyan Zongwang often followed Jin Taizu to conquer, often around the left, and repeatedly made great achievements. The Song people called it the "Second Prince", which was the incarnation of the Jin Army before the Wushu of the "Fourth Prince".

Breaking Liao and making meritorious contributions

Wanyan Zongwang, whose real name is Lu Bu, and he is also the second son of Jin Taizu Wanyan Aguda. Zongwang often followed Taizu's expeditions, was always around, and made many great achievements.

Dutong Gao conquered Zhongjing, Wanyan Zonghan was in Bei'anzhou, captured the Liao State guard Xi Nilie, and learned that the Liao lord was in Yuanyangluo, Zong Han asked to be ordered to attack. Gao left Qingling, and more than 300 Liao soldiers plundered the surrenderer's family assets. Zong Wang said: "If I catch these people, I can interrogate the situation where the Liao lord is located." So he and Zong Bi led hundreds of cavalry to march. Most of the cavalry were tired, and he pursued Yue Lu, Xiao Gu, Ye Lisi and others alone with the horse monks, leaving one cavalry to urge the army behind, so they galloped to defeat the enemy army and captured five alive. As a result, it was interrogated that the Liao lord was still in Mandarin Duck and had not left, and there was no doubt about it, so he entered the army. Zong Han kept speeding up day and night, chasing the Liao Lord until the Fifth Academy, but he did not catch up. Lou Room and others chased to Baishuiluo, and the Liao lord fled to Yinshan. The king of Qin and Jin of Liao established himself in Yanjing. The newly surrendered state department, the people's hearts are not stable, and Gao sent Zongwang to invite Taizu to come to the army in person.

Zongwang came to Beijing, and hundreds of officials entered the court to congratulate. Jin Taizu said: "Zongwang and more than 1,000 cavalry trekked thousands of miles to chase and kill the enemy, and they should be commended." "Jin Taizu feasted the ministers, very cheerful. Zong Wangqi said: "Now that Yunzhong has just been pacified, there are still tens of thousands of Liao soldiers from all walks of life, the Liao lord is still between Yinshan and Tiande, and the pinch is in Yanjing to establish himself as the emperor, and the newly surrendered people are not stable, so the generals expect Your Majesty to come to the army." "Jin Taejo said: I am worried about the army expedition, and I will hand over the plan to you, how can it all meet the wartime opportunities. I set off at the beginning of June. "When they arrived in the southwest of Daluo, Gao sent Xi Yin to ask the tribes of the Southwest Recruitment Division to move to the interior. Jin Taizu turned to his ministers and asked, "Which way should the migrating tribes take?" Zong Wang replied: "Zhongjing is ruined, and the food supply is not available, so it is better to go from Shangjing." However, when the new returnees suddenly stir up, those who have not yet returned must be confused and afraid. The labor army is also harmful to people, and the losses are too great. "Shangjing is Linhuang Mansion. Jin Taejo then conveyed Zongwang's suggestion and ordered the commander to think about acting at the right time.

Hunt down Emperor Liao

When Jin Taizu heard that the Liao lord was in Dayuluo, he personally led 10,000 elite soldiers to attack. Pu Jianu and Zong Wang led 4,000 soldiers to be the vanguard, day and night, most of the horses were tired, and when Shi Yuanyi caught up with the Liao lord, the army only reached 1,000 people, and the Liao army still had 25,000 people. The camp is being built, and Pu Jianu and the generals are discussing strategies. Yelu Yu said: "Our army has not yet gathered, and the men and horses are very poor and cannot fight. Zong Wang said: "Now I have caught up with the Liao Lord but I don't attack in time, and when the sun sets, he will escape, and it will be too late." So they went out to fight, and the Liao soldiers surrounded them for several layers, and the soldiers fought to the death. The lord of Liao thought that Zongwang would definitely fail if he had few soldiers, so he and his concubines all went down from the high earth mountain to the flat land to watch the battle. Yu Jian instructed the generals and said, "This is the banner canopy of the Liao lord." If you gather and rush over, you can achieve your goal. The cavalry galloped over, and the Liao lord was shocked, and then fled, and the Liao soldiers were defeated. Zong Wang and others returned to the army. Taizu said: "Lord Liao has not fled far, hurry up and pursue." Zong Wang led more than 1,000 cavalry to pursue, followed by Pu Jianu.

Taizu has pacified Yanjing, Hulu has been appointed as the capital, and Zong Wang has been appointed as the deputy capital, attacking the Liao lord between Yinshan and Qingzuka. Zongwang, Lou Mur, and Yinshu can lead 3,000 soldiers to attack in separate ways. When they were about to reach the green mound, they encountered a muddy road, and the soldiers could not advance. Zong Wang and the four cavalrymen of Danghai tied Lin Ya Dashi, the capital of Liao, with ropes, and let him be their guides, until they came to the camp of the Liao lord. At that time, the lord of Liao went to Yingzhou, and when his concubines saw that the enemy soldiers were coming, they were so frightened that they wanted to run, and Zong Wang ordered his men to arrest them. Soon the army from behind arrived. The concubine of the Liao State's uncle Hu Luwa, the second concubine of the king's pinch, the Han lady of the Liao State, and their sons King Qin and King Xu, the female bone desire, Yu Liyan, Hu Liyan, Da Aoye, Ci Aoye, Princess Zhao Hu Liyan, recruited Di Liu, detailed and stable six catties, and Jiedu made Bao Die, Chigou'er and other people, all surrendered. More than 10,000 vehicles were seized. Only Liang Wang Yali and his eldest daughter escaped while the army was in chaos, and Lou Room and Yinshu could obtain his left and right chariot tents. The army marched to Saolimen, and Zongwang wrote a letter to recruit the Liao lord.

When the Liao lord returned from Jincheng, he learned that his people and subordinates had been captured, and he led more than 5,000 troops to the decisive battle. Zong Wang defeated him with a thousand soldiers. The Liao lord was a hundred paces away and fled. Zong Wang captured the son of the Liao lord, King Xi Nilie, and the jade seal of the country. After chasing more than twenty miles, all the horses that followed him were obtained, and Teri, Temo, Hubaru, and Beida were given another 14,000 horses and 8,000 chariots. Presenting the heirloom seal to the place where the emperor is, Taizu said: "This is the credit of the ministers." So he held the jade seal in his arms, faced the east and respectfully thanked heaven and earth, so he carefully recorded the exploits of each general and gave a reward.

The lord of Liao then sent Mou Luwa to ask for surrender with the gold seal of the rabbit button. Zong Wang accepted the golden seal, and looking at the text on it, it was "the seal of the marshal Yan King". Zongwang wrote to him again and told him about Shi Jin's northward migration. Later, he sent envoys to tell the Western Xia to express reconciliation, thus dispelling their hesitation to rescue the Liao State. Zongwang came to Tiande, and Yelu Shensi of the Liao State surrendered. When Wu Shi, who was waiting for him, came back, he said that the Western Xia people had greeted and escorted the Liao lord across the river. Zong Wang sent a message to Xixia and said, "If you really want to belong to us, you should escort the Liao lord to us according to the previous warning." If you hesitate to rebel, I am afraid you will regret it. "When the King of Qin and others in Liao were captured to see Taizu, Taizu rewarded Zongwang for his merits and rewarded Yu Liyan, the princess of Shu in Liao, to him as his wife.

Settle the country

Yan Mu fought with Zhang Jue and was defeated at Rabbit Ear Mountain. Jin Taizong sent Zongwang to inquire about the military situation, so he led the army of Yan Mu to crusade against Zhang Jue, causing the coastal counties to surrender. Zong Wang and Zhang Jue then fought in the east of Nanjing. Zhang Jue was defeated and fled to the Song Dynasty at night. The people of the city seized Zhang Jue's father and his two sons to come and offer their respects, and Zongwang killed them. He asked the edict to be read out to Zhang Dungu and others in the city, so that they went out of the city and surrendered, and sent envoys to enter the city with Zhang Dungu to collect weapons. The people in the city killed the messengers, established Zhang Dungu as the capital, ransacked the treasury, plundered the inhabitants, and defended the city. Taizong rewarded Zongwang for his exploits in defeating Zhang Jue and meritorious soldiers, and the rewards were different.

At first, Zhang Jue fled to the Song Dynasty and entered Yanjing, where Zong Wang rebuked the Song people for accepting rebels and levying military rations. After not hearing the news for a long time, Zong Wang wrote a letter to urge, asking for a thousand empty names and more letterboards to appease the newly surrendered people. Taizong issued an edict: "The newly attached chief officials and staff will remain the same." has ordered all roads to transfer military rations, do not urge the Song State. Ten silver medals were awarded, and fifty empty names were announced. As for the people who migrated to Shenzhou from the four prefectures of Qian, Run, Lai, and Xi, they will resume their original occupations after the completion of farming. He also ordered Xianzhou to deliver corn to Zongwang's army.

Zhang Dungu sent 8,000 soldiers to fight in four teams and was defeated. Zong Wang repeatedly conveyed the edict, and Zhang Dungu and others said: "I have resisted many times, but I dare not come to surrender." Zongwang allowed them to bow down to the gate from afar. Zhang Dungu opened a city gate. Zong wanted to let Yan Mu play this matter, so Taizong issued an edict to pardon the officials and people of Nanjing, regardless of the size of the crime, all were acquitted, and the official position of the official remained. In addition, the relevant departments were ordered to reduce the tax on forced labor, encourage farming, and all matters in the frontier were decided by Zongwang. Taizong also said: "Discuss to ask Song Guo for Zhang Jue and the fugitive household registration. I have heard that there has been no bumper grain harvest in recent years, and if we collect it according to the standards of the past, we are afraid that the people will lack manpower, and we should calculate the amount of grain and levy taxes. If there are people in the grain army who are willing to be civilians, let them resume their peasant status. Big and small matters should be explained to the military commander, and should not be uploaded to the court without authorization. Taizong issued an edict to Zong Wang: "Select people with merit, merit and public prestige to serve as the remaining guards in Nanjing and various vacant official positions, and write down the names and official ranks." At this time, there were many people who surrounded the mountains and protected the village by the residents of the four prefectures of Qian, Run, Lai, and Xi, and Zongwang asked for the selection of good officials to appease them, and Taizong agreed.

Taizong summoned Zongwang into the palace, and the mother conquered Nanjing, and the soldiers captured Zhang Dungu, the puppet capital, and killed him, and Nanjing was pacified. The mother rushed to the capital. At this time, Zong Han asked not to cede the territory of Shanxi to the Song State, and Hu Lu said the same. The Song State had a precedent for violating the covenant and could not be left unguarded. When Zongwang's army returned to the division, Taizong said: "Collect the New Year's coins from the Song State, and give 200,000 taels of silver and 300,000 horses of silk to your army and the six divisions of the Tokyo army." "Zong Wang arrived in the army, and 3,000 Song soldiers came from the sea, broke through nine camps, killed the defender of Macheng County, Du Lu, and seized his silver medal, weapons and war horses, and left. Zongwang asked for a household registration, but the Song people refused to give it, and I heard that Tong Guan and Guo Yaoshi were training the army in Yanshan. Zong Wangzuo asked the emperor to attack the Song Kingdom, and said: "If you don't pacify the Song Kingdom first, I'm afraid it will become a future trouble." Zong Han said the same. Therefore, the strategy of attacking the Song Dynasty actually began with Zongwang.

Commanding the army to attack the Song Dynasty

Zong Wang was appointed as the capital of Nanjing Road, and Yan Mu was the deputy capital of Nanjing, and went from Yanshan Road to attack the Song Dynasty. Zong Wangyu said: "Mother Yan is an uncle to me, please Your Majesty appoint Mother Yan as the commander of the capital, and let the ministers supervise the war." Taizong agreed, and asked Zongwang to supervise the battle situation of the two armies of Yanmu and Liu Yanzong. Zong Wang came to Sanhe and defeated Guo Yaoshi's 45,000 soldiers at Baihe, and Pu Yuan defeated 3,000 Song soldiers at Gubeikou, and Guo Yaoshi surrendered. Then he captured Yanshan Mansion, and collected all the enemy's weapons, as well as 10,000 horses, 50,000 pairs of armor, and 70,000 soldiers, and all prefectures and counties were pacified.

The Song Dynasty's Zhongshan guards Wang Yan and Liu Bi led 2,000 troops to surrender. Pucha and Shenguo led 300 cavalry to meet 30,000 people in Zhongshan in a narrow and dangerous place, fought hard, and died in battle. The swift and lively troops arrived one after another, killing more than 20,000 enemy soldiers. Zongwang defeated the 5,000 soldiers of Zhending of the Song Dynasty, so he conquered Xinde Mansion and stationed in Handan. Li Ye of the Song Dynasty asked to rebuild the old good. Zong Wang stayed in the army and did not send anyone to reply to the matter.

Since Guo Yaoshi's surrender, the Jin army knew more about the situation in the Song Dynasty. Zong Wang asked for Guo Yaoshi to serve as Yanjing's guard. After Dong Cai surrendered, the Jin army became more aware of the geography of the Song Dynasty. Zong Wang asked Dong Cai to be put in charge of military affairs. Emperor Taizong rewarded them with the surname Wanyan and handed them the gold medal.

On the third day of the first month of the fourth year of Tianhui (1126), various armies crossed the Yellow River and captured Huazhou. Zongwang sent Wu Xiaomin into Bianzhou, took an edict to inquire about the reception of Zhang Jue in Pingzhou, and ordered them to escort Tong Guan, Tan Zhi, and Zhan Du over, take the Yellow River as the boundary, and leave hostages to pay tribute. On the 7th, the armies of all walks of life besieged Bianzhou. Song Qinzong asked to be his nephew, give hostages, cede land, increase the payment of annual coins, and ask for peace. So the Song Dynasty ceded the three towns of Taiyuan, Zhongshan, and Hejian, and wrote letters using the etiquette of uncles and nephews, and took King Kang Zhao Gou and Dazai Zhang Bangchang as hostages. Shen Hui came to the army with the oath document and the map of the three towns, and paid the annual coin and ceded the land in accordance with the covenant made. On the first day of the second month, he made peace with the Song Dynasty and retreated to Mengyang. That night, Yao Pingzhong's 400,000 soldiers came to attack. The cavalry who reconnoitred found that Zongwang sent his generals to meet the attack, defeated Yao Zhongping's army, attacked the city of Bianzhou again, and questioned them for the crime of raising troops. Song Qinzong was very panicked, and sent Yu Wenxuzhong to plead: "I didn't know about this at the beginning, and now I will punish him." Zong Wang stopped attacking, took King Su Zhao Shu as a hostage, and put King Kang Zhao Gou back. When the army returned, the two towns in Hebei could not be captured, so Zongwang sent an army to conquer. Zongwang withdrew the Changsheng army, returned the Yanren Tanaka industry, and ordered the soldiers to be stationed in Ansu, Xiong, Ba, Guangxin and other prefectures. Zongwang returned to Shanxi. Soon, he served as the right deputy marshal, and the meritorious soldiers were rewarded with different promotions.

Perished in the Northern Song Dynasty

Not long after, Song Qinzong wrote a letter to persuade Yelu Yujian, Xiao Zhonggong dedicated the letter, and Jin Taizong ordered to conquer the Song Dynasty again. In August, Zongwang gathered all the generals and set out from Baozhou. Jerodor defeated 30,000 enemy soldiers in Xiongzhou and killed more than 10,000. Nano defeated the 7,000 Song army in Zhongshan. Gao Liu and Dong Cai defeated 3,000 Song soldiers in Guangxin. The Song Dynasty's army of 40,000 people was stationed in Jingcheng, and Zongwang defeated them and captured the Tianwei army. He returned to the east and conquered Zhending, killed the prefect Li Miao, obtained 30,000 hukou, and surrendered five counties. Then rushed from Zhending to Bianzhou. On November 7, Zongwang reached the edge of the Yellow River and subdued Wei County. The armies crossed the river, leaving the generals to set out from the Daimyo area. After receiving and surrendering Linhe County, he traveled to Daming County, and the Deqing army and Kaide Mansion were conquered. Ali Kua led 3,000 cavalry to Bianzhou first, and defeated the Song army of 6,000 on the way. Captured the city of Yin, arrived at the city of Bianzhou, eliminated thousands of Song soldiers, and captured several Song generals alive. Zongwang rushed to Bianzhou and assigned generals to block the reinforcements of the Song Dynasty, and Benjian, Naye, Saira, and Taishi defeated the reinforcements of the Song Dynasty one after another. On the first day of the 11th month of the leap month, 10,000 Song soldiers came out of Biancheng to fight. Zong Wang selected 5,000 strong warriors and sent Danghai, Hulu, and Hina to defeat the Song soldiers. On the 2nd, Zong Han gathered his army from Taiyuan to Bianzhou. On the 25th, Bianzhou was captured. On the 30th, Song Qinzong came to the front of the army. On December 2, Song Qinzong made a petition to surrender. Jin Taizong sent Zong Han and Zong Wang to the army to reward Zong Han and Zong Wang, and let them shake their hands to show their gratitude.

In April of the fifth year of Tianhui (1127), Zongwang and others returned to the north with the two monarchs of the Song Dynasty and more than 470 people from their clans, as well as the Huangzhang, the treasure seal, the crown, the vehicle, the sacrificial vessels, the great music, the spiritual platform, and the books.

Zongwang assigned generals to guard Hebei. Dong Cai surrendered the Guangxin Army and the nearby counties and towns. Zong Wang then went west to Liangcheng. Taizong's edict ordered Zongwang to say: "From the north of the Yellow River, it has now been divided, and some people have resisted the order to hold on because they saw the destruction of the city, and passed down an order to recruit them to give pacification and protection. If you insist on not changing, you will naturally have to conduct a discussion. If anyone in the army dares to take prisoners and plunder them for personal gain, and wantonly destroy, he should be punished. In the same month, Zong Wang died.

In the thirteenth year of Tianhui (1135), he was named King of Wei.

In the third year of the emperor's reign (1143), he was named King Xu and renamed King Jin.

In the second year of Tiande (1150), he was gifted as the Taishi, crowned as the king of Liaoyan, and sacrificed in the temple of Taizong.

In the second year of Zhenglong (1157), the title was lowered according to the regulations.

In the third year of Dading (1163), he was renamed the King of Song, and his nickname was "Huansu".

Historical evaluation

"Jin History": "Zong Wang set off in Pingzhou, defeated the Baihe, swept south, swept to the south, and the wind was lifted, and the soldiers were left without difficulty, and then read the moon and Bianjing was besieged. The so-called enemy can't compete with the school. If you take faith and virtue, you will leave troops to guard it, and you will think that it will be a long distance. "Pipe" said: 'The path is in the Jedi, the attack is stubborn, the only way out, and the Mo can stop.' 'It is said to be a great thing. ”

Anecdotal allusions

Bodhisattva Prince

Wanyan Zongwang is a fine, persistent, benevolent, benevolent, and good talker, and his face is plump like a Buddha. Soldiers are willing to be used, conquered, and battled. In the army, he is known as the "Bodhisattva Prince".

Policy towards Song

Wanyan Zongwang had differences with Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Zongpan on the policy towards the Song Dynasty. Zong Wang did not want to destroy the Song Dynasty and change the dynasty, and advocated that the Second Emperor Huiqin could be left in Bianjing to continue to be the Song Emperor, but he should be controlled by the Jin State, so that he could still get along with the Han people. Zong Han and Zong Pan must destroy the Song Dynasty and change the dynasty, take the second emperor of Huiqin to the north, "establish a different surname," let Zhang Bangchang and Liu Yu, who are not surnamed Zhao, establish pseudo-Chu and pseudo-Qi regimes to control the Han people, "the country is easy to move, "mess up the Han land a little," Xu Tu mixes, "can fish in troubled waters, and is slowly annexed by the Jurchens." Zong Han and Zong Pan moved out higher-status figures such as Xianye, and finally overwhelmed Zong Wang, making him "angry" and "stupid".
