Volume 7 Yan Yun Rush Chapter 624 [Hidden Secret Vault]
Looking at the fact that the ink on the transcribed battle report had not dried thoroughly, Huang Jie began to calculate the distance between Linhuang Mansion and Tokyo, and the distance of flying in six days exceeded 3,000 miles, and he didn't know how many fast horses were tired and how many spies from the military department were killed.

The Liaoguo Shangjing Linhuang Mansion (now Inner Mongolia Chifeng Balinzuoqi Lindong Town) is more than 2,300 miles away from Kaifeng in a straight line, and this battle report should be sent out after the Jin army gave up the attack and retreated 30 miles to build a village in the afternoon of 18 July, and the time spent on the road was less than six days.
Sitting on the four-wheeled light car that sent Liang Shicheng over, Huang Jie carefully read the battle report of less than 200 words back and forth, and he could be regarded as roughly guessing what the battle between Jin and Liao looked like in Linhuang Mansion.
First of all, the number of the Western Route Army of the Jin State should definitely not be enough for 100,000, because the battle report clearly listed the participating arms of the Liao State Army as the leather room army, the elite cavalry and the number of ordinary archers, and for the Western Route Army of the Jin State, there is only a general concept of "100,000".
Of course, during the Battle of Chibi that year, although Cao Cao only had more than 100,000 soldiers, he dared to claim "800,000" but it was not bragging, because his auxiliary soldiers and the people who were captured everywhere could really make up this number.
As for Jin Guo, those barbarians with their own violent and bloodthirsty skills, they never like to brag about how many people they brought when they were fighting, but just picked up their maces and did it, and they repeatedly fought with Liao State to the death with less "big victory", so Huang Jie first thought that there was a problem with this "100,000" number.
Second, if the battle report indicates that the battle was "fighting by the city" rather than "defending the city" or "standing in the city", then it is very likely that the two sides will fight a cavalry-to-cavalry hedge, rather than a defensive counterattack.
The so-called "battle by the city" means that the defending troops will open their positions outside the long-range fire strike range of the city to engage the incoming enemy, while "standing in the city" means that the defending troops will set their own positions within the range of the city's long-range firepower, or set up a "product" shaped formation on both sides of the city to carry out defensive counterattacks.
However, thinking about the Liao army's silent stationing of more than 300,000 troops in Linhuang Mansion, it is also appropriate to choose to "fight according to the city", otherwise it would be too tasteless to have such an army still hiding in the city and playing "defending the city" with the Jin State, not to mention that the Liao army is also a field expert who is good at cavalry, and the city defense battle cannot be better than the Song army, and pulling the army out to fight a field battle is also the proper meaning of the question.
It's just that the two sides fought for three days, and with 300,000 against "100,000", it actually became a stalemate, which made Huang Jie a little puzzled.
If it is said that the 300,000 Song army fought the 100,000 Liao army, the Liao army ran fast on horseback, and the Song army could not catch up, and the stalemate between the two sides should be a while. But this Jin Liao and the two countries should be cavalry, and the two sides can fight together for three days and still reach a stalemate, but it will be a hell of a fight.
In addition, judging from the battle report, the commander of the Jinguo West Route Army is still Wanyan Zonghan, and the deputy generals Pu Jianu, Wanyan Zonggan, and Wanyan Zongpan, the names of these people are all mentioned in the war report, and there is no life to know. The commander of the Liao State is Xiao Gan, the king of the four armies, and the deputy generals are Xiao Tzu Buye, the general of the Shangjing Guard, Yelu Chang, the chief general of the Bohai Navy, Li Bogui, the chief general of the Xi Army, and Wang Yi, the chief general of the Han Army.
Because the exchanges between Song and Liao were quite close, and the staff department of the Ministry of War had already connected the heaven and earth lines of Liao, so the personnel information of the Liao army was quite detailed.
It's a pity that this battle report came in a hurry, and the number of casualties on both sides was not found, and even how many battles were fought in the three days of the fierce battle, and the size of the troops on both sides did not explain, but at the end it was mentioned that "it is reported" that Yelu Yanxi, the lord of Liao, was sitting in Shangjing, and Wanyan Aguta, the lord of Jin, was also in the army.
It was now ten o'clock at noon, and the market was in full swing, taking advantage of the slow flow of people along Rendian Street, Huang Jie also put down his book and said to Liang Shicheng: "I don't know where Your Majesty summoned you?" ā
Liang Shicheng's face was furious, and he hurriedly replied: "Naturally, it is in the Chongzheng Palace!" ā
When Huang Jie heard it, this was not in the Wende Hall but in the Chongzheng Palace, it was obviously a small circle meeting, according to the practice of arguing over small things in the Song Court Hall and setting big things in the small hall, this matter was really a big deal for the Zhao Guanjia and the inner court.
Huang Jie thought about it, and didn't know how to ask, but Liang Shicheng rubbed his hands, and said the situation like a bamboo tube pouring beans: "The battle report came from this morning, and after the official family left the early dynasty, they also left the heads of various departments and the heads of the divisions to discuss in the Chongzheng Palace, and also invited the old lady. Before the miscellaneous family came to invite the horses, the hall was already noisy. ā
Huang Jie also asked, "I don't know what the noise is?" ā
Liang Shicheng spread his hands and said: "What else can it be, the old lady and Tong Daofu want to raise troops to attack Liao, but the old Dazai and Wang Jiangming stopped them alive and dead, just saying that there is no money and food in the treasury, and then ...... Gao Yu's house also opened the secret vault with the official family! ā
"Hidden vault?" Huang Jie was stunned when he heard this, and subconsciously couldn't help asking, Liang Shicheng also hurriedly reacted, but he first stretched out his hand to cover his mouth, and then reached out and patted his head, saying, "Oops! It's such a time, and the colt is also from his own family, so there is no need to hide it. This inner secret vault is also the secret vault in the inner vault, which was built by Taizu when he was in the past, and there is a sum of money hidden in it, and Taizu has a legacy, saying that it can be used only when Yanyun can be recovered in a war. Thinking about it, it is not copper and silk, it should also be the gold and silver obtained from the destruction of the Southern Tang Dynasty and Houshu back then, and there should be tens of thousands of guan, right? ā
"Tens of thousands?" Huang Jie was shocked when he heard it, he naturally knew that the "ten thousand" at this time was also the quantity unit of "100 million" used by later generations in the dream, that is, in the "hidden secret vault" left by this Taizu, there was a sum of gold and silver worth hundreds of millions of yuan, which was really a lot of money!
In fact, the library in the library of this inner library, the predecessor of which was the library of the martial arts hall established by Song Taizu, is also the pile sealing library.
After Zhao Kuangyin, Taizu of the Song Dynasty, pacified Jinghu, Bashu, Lingnan and Jiangnan, he hid the treasures and gold silks of all countries into it, and the annual savings of the subsequent dynasties were also stored in this library, that is, "the surplus of the year, for the extraordinary use of the state".
It is said that Song Taizu had planned to redeem the sixteen states of Yanyun with this inventory money, and then Song Taizong first changed its name to the right treasury, and then expanded the scale in the third year of Taiping Xingguo (978) and renamed the inner treasury as a whole, in order to cover up the secret treasury in the library.
