Chapter 210

the other, Jin Wushu's son-in-law, the general under his command, Su Shi Lie Zhining, 95 in force, 92 in command, 74 in intelligence, and 80 in politics;

Sushi Lie Zhining was a native of Huta'an in Shangjing (now Acheng, Heilongjiang). Su Shilie is a famous Jurchen tribe that has intermarried with the royal family Wanyan since the fifth generation of ancestor Han Chi. Zhining's father, Saba, served as the envoy of Dongping Yin and Kaiyuan Army during the reign of King Hailing. Zhining's father-in-law, Wanyan Zongbi, was an outstanding military strategist and politician of the Jurchen tribe in the Jin Dynasty. Among the sons-in-law, Zhining is the most loved by Zong Bi.

During the time of Xizong, Zhining served as a guard and other officials. During the reign of King Hailing, Zhining was quite trusted, and his official position was gradually promoted and began to show his prominence. He officially worshiped the right Xuanhui envoy, the Fenyang military festival envoy, and the military department Shangshu, and was reappointed as the left Xuanhui envoy, all of whom were inspected, and moved to the privy deputy envoy and Kaifeng Yin. In the sixth year of Zhenglong (1161), King Hailing's southern expedition failed, and Wanyan Yong staged a coup d'Γ©tat in Tokyo (now Liaoyang, Liaoning) and became emperor for Jin Shizong.

At that time, Zhining was serving as the deputy commander of the north, and led the troops with Bai Yanjing, the capital commander, to suppress the Khitan farmers and herdsmen rebels. They traveled to Beijing (present-day Daming City in the northwest of Ningcheng County, Inner Mongolia), and when they heard that Sejong had different aspirations, they plotted to raise troops to attack Sejong. After Sejong ascended the throne, he sent an envoy to recruit him. Bai Yanjing and Zhining killed nine of their envoys in a row. Shizong sent Wanyan Mouyan to attack.

Zhining originally wanted to lead the army to resist, but "the crowd refused to fight" and had to surrender. In order to stabilize the political situation, Sejong adopted a tolerant policy towards the important ministers of the previous dynasty. He not only did not punish Zhining and others, who had supported the army against him, but entrusted him with important responsibilities. This deeply touched Zhining and determined to live up to Sejong's trust in him. He fought in the north and south, and made outstanding contributions, and became a famous general in the time of Sejong. His important military activities were to suppress the uprising of Khitan farmers and herdsmen, and second, to counterattack the Song soldiers advancing north, and to promote the conclusion of the "Longxing Peace Conference".

During the 120 years of the Jin Dynasty's rule, due to the sharpening of national and class contradictions, the people of all ethnic groups resisted one after another, and the Khitan peasant and herdsmen's uprising in the middle of the Jin Dynasty was the largest of them.

This uprising, led by Saba and Wo Hu, began with opposition to the signing of the army by King Hailing. In the fifth year of Zhenglong, King Hailing invaded the Song Dynasty in the south, and sent a sign to seal the Northwest Road (referring to the Northwest Road Recruitment Division. The seat of governance is about two miles northwest of the Zhenglan Banner in present-day Inner Mongolia) Khitan Ding Zhuang served in the army. Because the Khitan people were close to various nomadic tribes on the northwest road, they were afraid that Ding Zhuang would be plundered by neighbors after joining the army, so they asked for exemption. He didn't dare to play back, and continued to urge the troops. The Khitan translator Shi Saba and Xiao Tebu and others angrily killed and joined forces with the Jin Dynasty to recruit Wanyan Wofang, seized 3,000 pairs of armor stored by the Recruiting Division, held an uprising, and pushed the old monk of the capital prison as the envoy.

The people of all ethnic groups on the Northwest Road rose up one after another to respond, and the uprising soon became a prairie fire. In May of the sixth year of Zhenglong, King Hailing sent the right guard general Xiao Bald to the northwest road. In June, he sent the privy envoy Sankutu and Xiao Huaizhong to stay in Xijing to lead 10,000 troops, and joined forces with Xiao Bala to suppress the rebels. Xiao Vula was defeated by the Eighth Army and retreated to Linhuang (present-day Balin Left Banner southeast of Inner Mongolia).

Seeing that the Jin Dynasty army was about to arrive, Saba decided to travel west along the Longju River (a Tilulian River, that is, the Klulun River that flows through present-day eastern Mongolia and flows into Hulun Lake in Inner Mongolia) to prepare to defect to Western Liao. Servant scattered Hutu, Xiao Huaizhong and others chased to the river, Saba had already gone far, and Hutu couldn't wait to return. When the king of Hailing heard the news, he was furious, and he sat down to scatter the soil, Xiao Huaizhong, and Xiao Bald to stay in the crime, and put them to death.

Then, King Hailing ordered Fu Shi Lie Zhining to be the deputy commander of the soldiers and horses in the north, and jointly marched with Bai Yanjing and others to pursue and suppress the rebel army.

On the way to the westward retreat of Saba's army, disagreements broke out within the rebel army. Saba advocated defecting to Western Liao and rebelling against Jin, but the Khitans who originally lived in front of the mountains (north of the Daqing River in present-day Hebei and south of the Inner Great Wall) were reluctant to travel far and advocated returning to the army to occupy Linhuang, the hometown of the Khitans. As a result, the Sixth Yuan Jiedu made the transfer of the Nest and the military officer Chen Jia kill Saba, and arrested the old monk and the special supplement. Wo Hu appointed himself as the marshal of the capital, led the troops back to the east, and returned to the southeast of Linhuang Prefecture to garrison in Xinluocha (now southeast of Inner Mongolia's Balinzuoqi).

In October, Kim Sejong ascended the throne in Tokyo and changed the Yuan to Dading. When Sejong came to power, the first thing was to stabilize the political situation, and the suppression of the Khitan peasant and herdsmen's uprising was an important part of this. Sejong convened the ministers and officials to discuss the suppression, and the young master of the crown prince, Xiong Xiang, advocated appeasement. Shizong sent the Khitans to move to Zha Ba to recruit surrender. Seeing that the Wo Gang was strong and strong, Zaba decided to join the rebel army. Wo Wei led the troops to attack Linhuang Mansion, and captured the head of the gold and moved the room. The rebel army grew to 50,000 men. In December, Wo was called the emperor, and the name of the founding year was "Tianzheng".

In the case of successive defeats of the Jin army, in the first month of the second year of Dading (1162), Shizong sent the right deputy marshal Wanyan Mouyan to lead various armies to suppress the rebel army. After Yan Mouyantun Army Yizhou Qingyun County (now Qijiatun in the southeast of Kangping, Liaoning), he asked the imperial court to increase troops to escort food and wages. Sejong ordered the soldiers from the south to the north to escort them. Wo Hu went from Taizhou (now Taonandong, Jilin) to attack Jeju (now Nong'an, Jilin) in an attempt to rob the Jin Dynasty's grain transport.

Wanyan Mouyan gathered 13,000 elite soldiers and pursued the rebels with light cavalry. At that time, Fu Shi Lie Zhining was the envoy of the Linhai Festival, and he commanded the right wing army. At this time, the generals of the Khitan rebel army, Qiu and his younger brothers, rebelled and reduced their money. The hypocrisy offered a plan to Wanyan: send troops to attack and plunder the rebels' baggage, and annihilate them when the rebels are still saved. At the beginning of April, Wanyan Mouyan attacked according to the plan, and the army returned to save himself. At Changbo (between present-day Qian'an and Nong'an, Jilin), he was attacked by the Jin army's Shan Kening Division. Jin Wanhu Wanyan Xiang attacked from behind the rebel army again, and the rebel army was defeated and retreated.

After Yan Mouyan plundered the army, he did not dare to pursue. Wo Wei led the army to the west to the southwest of Linhuang Shuangxiang River (now the Horsehair River in Kaiyuan, Liaoning). After crossing the river, the ferry was destroyed. Fu Shi Lie Zhining led the army to the river bank, set up suspicious soldiers, and confronted the rebels across the bank. He also ordered 20,000 households to cross the river downstream. Just after crossing the river, the rebel army was covered, and Zhining hurriedly reorganized the army to meet the battle.

The rebels galloped down from the hill to the south and rushed into the Jin positions three times. Zhi Ning fought hard, and the stray arrow hit his left arm, but he still calmly commanded the battle. The rebels set fire to the upper hand and slammed the Jin army in the smoke. The soldiers of the Jin Army are all stupid in the wind and smoke, and they don't argue about things. Victory for the rebels was in sight. Unexpectedly, the wind stopped, Zhining commanded a counterattack, and the rebel army was defeated. Tudan Kening continued the pursuit, and after crossing the stream, the rebels returned to attack the Jin army, and the Jin army retreated to the north of the stream. Wo Wei led the army westward, and the army was stationed in Baibo, Huanzhou (now southwest of Inner Mongolia).

Wo Wei attacked Yizhou (now Taziying Village, Fuxin County, Liaoning Province) Buke, and then turned to attack Sichuan Prefecture (now Beipiao, Liaoning Province, Northeast Chengzi Ancient City), and marched to Shanxi. The defenders of Beijing did not dare to fight. The rebel army gradually approached Zhongdu (present-day Beijing).

In May, Jin Shizong saw that the Jin army was invincible, and issued an edict to recall Wanyan Mouyan and Wanyan Fushou back to Zhongdu and relieve them of military power. He also took Fu Shi Lie Zhining as the marshal to supervise the army on the right and made the Duke of the country. During the shipment, 15,000 bows and 1.5 million arrows were shipped to Yizhou. In June, he ordered his servant Sa Zhongyi to be the political affairs of Pingzhang and the right deputy marshal, responsible for the command of the Zhulu Jin Army, "out of the inner palace of gold and silver 100,000 taels of military service" ("Jin History" volume 113). From then on, the Jin Dynasty strengthened the suppression of the rebel army, and Fushi Lie Zhining also became the main military commander.

Wo Wei led the rebel army west to the flower road (now southeast of Chifeng, Inner Mongolia) and met with Fusa Zhongyi. At that time, the rebel army was still very strong. The two armies were sandwiched by the river, and the rebel army crossed the river and attacked the left flank of the Jin army with 40,000 men. The Jin army was "quite a defeat". At this time, Zhining was leading his army to pursue behind the rebel army. The rebels did not dare to fight, so they moved west from Ikebana.

Due to the long period of fighting, the Jin army was already weak and unable to fight. The rebel army moved west, and all the generals wanted to stop the pursuit in order to rest the army. At this time, Zhining captured the rebel army and knew its truth. It turned out that after the Battle of Ikebana, Wo Hu made a mistake in command. He divided the elite of the rebel army to follow himself, and used the old and weak soldiers to protect the old and the young and the baggage, and transferred separately, agreeing to meet in the back of the mountain (the area between the inner and outer Great Walls of present-day Shanxi and Hebei provinces), thus dispersing the troops and creating an opportunity for the Jin army to take advantage of. Zhining advocated pursuing the rebel army and robbing the rebel army's baggage, and was approved by Zhongyi, so the two led the army in hot pursuit. The Jin army crossed the Horse Ridge and entered the west of the Lingling Mountains (in the territory of the Inner Mongolia Balin Left Banner), and met the Wo Hu army again.

The Jin army "first occupied Nangang,...... as a glaive array, with the infantry in the center, and the cavalry at both ends" (Jin Shi, vol. 133). The rebel army did not know the reality of the Jin army, and the attack was unfavorable and defeated. The elder brother of the Sixth Academy, the king of the Sixth Academy, was captured. "The mother of the nest, Xu Yin, raised the camp from Luokuo Gang to the west, and Zhining chased after him, captured his baggage, captured more than 50,000 people, and miscellaneous animals were incalculable." The Battle of Trapping Springs was the largest battle between the Khitan rebels and the Jin army, and the rebels suffered huge losses.

After the Battle of Trapping Springs, Wo Wei collected more than 10,000 stragglers and transferred them to the Xi people's residence, where they supplemented some Xi soldiers and continued to persist in the struggle. In August, Sejong ordered Marshal Yan Sijing to lead his troops into Xi Di and join the main army to pursue it.

The situation of the rebel army was even more difficult, and "many surrendered" ("Jin Shi"; Vol. 133), "the rest died of many diseases" (ibid.), and the Jin army "chased after the Yiyi" (ibid.), and went north to Shatuo.

Fu Shi Lie Zhining once captured the rebel generals for a while, but released him but did not kill him, and released him back to the rebel army, asking him to wait for the opportunity to capture Wo Hu and promise him a reward to the official. After returning to the rebel army, he concealed the truth that he was captured and surrendered to the enemy, and sow discord among the rebel generals and distract the army. At that time, the rebel army was repeatedly defeated, and the provocation of the traitors made the rebel army even more demoralized.

At the beginning of September, he lived together with another general, Shen Du, and surrendered to the Jin army. Twelve days later, Wo Hu was escorted to Zhongdu and died a heroic death.

The sacrifice of Wo Hu caused a serious setback to the Khitan rebel army, and the Jin army took advantage of the situation to attack. More than 30 people, including the privy envoy of the rebel army, Zhu Zhu, Marshal Chouge, were defeated and captured one after another. Fu Shi Lie Zhining pursued the rest of the rebel army to Yanzicheng (now Zhangbei, Hebei), but the rebel army was finally defeated.

In the process of suppressing the great uprising of the Khitan farmers and herdsmen, Fu Shi Lie Zhining was resourceful and good at fighting, and was loyal to the rule of the Jin Dynasty, and did his best to serve the dogs and horses. After the class master returned to the court, Sejong ordered him to be the left deputy marshal, gave him a jade belt, and gave him a high reward.

Since the "Shaoxing Peace Conference," Jin and Song have maintained peace for nearly 20 years. It was not until the reign of King Hailing that the war broke out again. In the sixth and ninth years of Zhenglong, King Hailing did not listen to dissuasion and led his army to the south. This adventurous war intensified various social contradictions within the Jin Dynasty and inevitably suffered defeat. King Hailing himself was also killed by his subordinates in the Yangzhou coup. The invasion of the Song and Jin armies returned to the north, and the Song army took the opportunity to recover the lost territory of Lianghuai.

After Jin Shizong ascended the throne, the Jin and Song sides were still at war. In order to alleviate social contradictions and stabilize his rule, Jin Shizong judged the situation and determined the policy of negotiating peace with the Southern Song Dynasty. At the beginning of his accession to the throne, Jin Shizong set out to create conditions for peace with the Southern Song Dynasty. In December of the first year of Dading, Jin Shizong "sent Marshal Zuojian Gao Zhongjian and others as the envoys of the Song State" ("Jin Shi Shizong I") "to strike the army and return to the land invaded by Zhenglong, and report to the Song State" ("Jin Shi Appointment Table").

However, after Song Xiaozong ascended the throne, he did not have a positive attitude towards peace, but appointed resistance factions and actively prepared for the Northern Expedition. Under these circumstances, Kim Sejong decided to adopt the policy of forcing peace by force. In October of the second year of Dading, after Zhining suppressed the Khitan peasant and herdsmen's uprising, he was appointed as the left deputy marshal and sent to the Song-Jin battlefield. In November, Sejong ordered Prime Minister Zuo to be the prime minister and live in Nanjing (now Kaifeng, Henan) to control the army. The Zhining garrison in Suiyang (now south of Shangqiu City, Henan) directly commanded the operation and faithfully carried out Jin Shizong's operational policy.

Zhining went to Suiyang to command the Song Dynasty, and sent Wanyan Wangxiang to take Caizhou (now Ruyang, Henan) and Wanyan Xiang to attack Yingzhou (now Yingyang, Anhui). He also obeyed the order of the servants to disperse the loyalty and righteousness, and moved the Song Dynasty privy envoy Zhang Jun and said, "But the invasion of the interior of the dynasty, each of them will guard the boundaries of their own affairs, and everything will be in accordance with the old covenant since the emperor's rule, and the marshal's mansion should also be relieved." If you want to contend with each other, please meet the soldiers at the same time, and ask the imperial court to garrison Xuyi (now Xuyi, Jiangsu), Haozhou (now Fengyang, Anhui), Luzhou (now Hefei, Anhui) and other places to prepare for war.

In May of the third year of Dading, Zhang Jun ordered Li Xianzhong (formerly known as Shifu) and Shao Hongyuan to lead troops to capture Lingbi (now Lingbi, Anhui) and Hongxian (now Si County, Anhui), and then occupy Suzhou (now north of Suxian County, Anhui).

Zhining led 10,000 elite soldiers from Suiyang to counterattack Suzhou. He was quite confident in the use of troops this time, and Shangjuan Shizong said: "This battle is not bothering the saints, but the ministers are afraid that the world will escape." "On May 12, Zhining led his army to Suzhou.

In order to win this battle, Zhining made careful arrangements. He spread banners all over the west of the state and set up a suspicious soldier; Lead the army to garrison the south of the state, don't garrison the south of the state with three fierce soldiers. Li Xianzhong saw that the banner in the west of the state was covering the field, and really thought that the main force of the Jin army was in the west of the state, and that the small number of troops in the southeast was not to be worried, so he decided to attack the right flank of the Jin army in the west of the state. Wanhu Jiagu Qingchen led the vanguard army to attack, the Song soldiers were defeated and retreated, and the Jin army pursued and killed the city.

The next day, the entire Song army went into battle. Zhining led the whole army to fight and defeated the Song army. Li Xianzhong led the army to retreat overnight. The Jin army pursued all the way to Fuli (north of present-day Suxian County, Anhui). "The Song division collapsed, and the dead who went to the water were incalculable. The golden man took advantage of the victory to behead more than 4,000 levels and won 30,000 yuan. So Song Zhi's military resources were exhausted.." ("Renewal of Capital and Governance"; Volume 138; In May of the first year of Xiaozong Longxing, Jin Shizong was very happy, and sent an edict to Zhining: "Although Qing is young, he has the most achievements in the Khitan war, and now he has broken the enemy, and I am very happy." ”

"The collapse of Fu Li" was a heavy blow to Song Xiaozong's desire to recover. Under pressure from the surrender faction, Song Xiaozong sent envoys to sue Jin for peace. In the process of suing for peace, the two sides used their own force and bargained. In order to enable the Southern Song Dynasty to accept the peace negotiation, Jin Shizong issued an edict to his servants and said: "If the Song people return to Xinjiang, the annual currency is the same as in the past, they can be exempted from being called a minister, and Xu Shi will be a nephew." ”

(The conditions of "Jin Shi: The Legend of Servant San Zhongyi" are lower than those of the Shaoxing Peace Conference.) At the same time, in order to bring the Southern Song Dynasty into submission, the Jin Dynasty continued to use force to force peace. Fusan Zhongyi moved the army to Jianghuai and sent Zhining to lead the division to cross Huai. Zhining crossed the Huai River and captured Song Xuyi, Haozhou, Luzhou and other places. The Southern Song Dynasty was forced to agree to the peace conditions proposed by Jin in the face of successive defeats.

In the first month of the fifth year of Dading, the two sides agreed that the Southern Song Dynasty ceded Haizhou (present-day old Haizhou, Lianyungang City, Jiangsu), Sizhou (present-day Si County, Anhui), Tangzhou (present-day Tanghe County, Henan), Dengzhou (present-day Dengxian County, Henan), Shangzhou (present-day Shangxian County, Shaanxi), and Qinzhou (present-day Tianshui City, Gansu) to the Jin Dynasty. Song called Jin the nephew emperor and no longer called him a minister. Every year, he contributed 200,000 taels of silver and silk to gold. This year is the second year of Song Xiaozong's Longxing, so the history is called "Longxing Peace Conference".

After the "Longxing Peace Conference", there was no major war between the Jin and Song dynasties for more than 40 years. After winning the war, Jin Shizong strongly advocated peace talks, which won several decades of stability for the Jin and Song dynasties and promoted the development of the social productive forces in the north and south. Kim Sejong's move is worthy of recognition. Zhining faithfully carried out Kim Sejong's policy of operation and made a significant contribution to the signing of the peace treaty.

As a famous general during the reign of Jin Shizong, he participated in a series of important military activities in the early days of Jin Shizong's reign, and was highly appreciated by Jin Shizong because of his outstanding military achievements. In the fifth year of Dading, Fusan Zhongyi returned to Zhongdu, and Su Shi Lie Zhining was ordered to garrison Nanjing, enter the Pingzhang political affairs, and rank as prime minister. In the sixth year of Dading, he returned to the central capital, and was appointed as a privy envoy. In the seventh year of Dading, the crown prince's birthday, Jin Shizong feasted his ministers in the East Palace.

Fu Shi Lie Zhining raised a glass to celebrate his birthday. Jin Shizong was overjoyed and said to the crown prince: "There is nothing in the world, my father and son are happy today, and they are all this manpower." "In the ninth year of Dading, I worshiped Prime Minister Zuo; In the eleventh year of Dading, he was crowned the king of Jinyuan County.

In the twelfth year of Dading, Fu Shi Lie Zhining died of illness. Jin Shizong personally offered sacrifices, 1,500 taels of silver, 50 pieces of heavy color, and 500 horses of silk, and handled the funeral for him, and gave him the nickname Wuding. In the fifteenth year of Dading, the image of Yanqing Palace. In the fifth year of Jin Zhangzong's Ming Chang (1194), he was worthy of the temple of Jin Shizong.
