Volume 10 Heading North Chapter 891

But it is also said that after Jinda crawled back to the city and informed Cui Zhuo of Huang Jie's ultimatum, it immediately attracted a burst of laughter. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Let's talk about this Goryeo general Cui Zhuo, who looks like he is also in his fifties, with a bun on his head, and covers his forehead with a piece of brocade.

This Choi clan is now a family of Goryeo gate lords, the 47th generation of Silla's king Xian'an's concubine Gong descendant, first in the last years of Silla to follow the peasant uprising leader Yang Ji, and then to fight back, in 901 to establish Goguryeo, the capital of Kaesong, and then successively changed the name of the country to Mozhen, Taefeng, and Silla and Zhen Xuan's Later Baekje formed a confrontation, known as the Later Three Kingdoms in history.

And the Bow descendant called himself Maitreya Buddha, fooled the people, and ruled tyrannyly. In 918, when the officers of the Gong descendants rebelled, Wang Jian's henchmen Hong Ru, Pei Xuanqing, Shin Chongqian and Park Zhiqian expelled the Gong descendants and supported Wang Jian as king, and the Gong descendants were killed on the way to escape.

The ancestors of the Choi family thought that they had meritorious support, and although their status was not high at the time of the incident, with hundreds of years of continuous operation, the Choi family has now become a high-ranking lord in Goryeo.

However, there is a way that is a big branch, although the Cui family has become a high-ranking family today, but the clan branch is very large, and although the branch from Cui Zhuo is not the backbone, because of his years of operation, he can also compete with the main branch of the Cui family.

But he also said that this Cui Zhuo was originally an ordinary military general, because he had followed Yin Qian to wage war against the Jurchens, and he was promoted to a general after many years of meritorious service. At that time, Wang Kai was only 14 years old, and his will was not firm and his nature was soft, so the government was controlled by Wang's grandfather Li Ziqian and his henchman Tuo Junjing.

In order to continue to consolidate his position, Li Ziqian rededicated his third and fourth daughters as Wang Kai's concubines, formed a party for personal gain, installed relatives and subordinates to hold important positions inside and outside the court, and took the opportunity to frame Zhongliang and eradicate dissidents with his position of power. He even instigated his henchmen and his slaves to seize people's finances and occupy people's land, arousing public indignation. The folk circulated in the alleys that "the eighteen sons (Li) will be the king", and Li Ziqian heard about it, so he was delusional and tried to usurp the throne.

Li Ziqian became the de facto ruler behind the scenes, and became more and more powerful, and because of his excessive despotism, the courtiers were filled with righteous indignation, and even aroused Wang Kai's disgust. In the fourth year of Wang Kai (1126), Wang Kai's close ministers Jin Can and An Fulin secretly learned that Wang Kai was disgusted with Li Ziqian's unauthorized power, so they conspired with the generals Cui Zhuo, Wu Zhuo and others, and led troops into the palace in the middle of the night to kill Li Ziqian's henchmen Tuo Chun, the son of Tuo Junjing, and his brother Tuo Junchen.

However, after Tuo Junjing got the urgent report, he hurriedly led troops into the palace and burned the house. The fire spread to the inner hall, Wang Kai urgently fled on foot to the back garden for refuge, Wang Kai was even ready to order the abdication and Li Ziqian to end the chaos, the ministers hurriedly stopped it, Wang Kai gave up.

Because Cui Zhuo has a clear position on the side of the king of Goryeo in this matter, his power has become increasingly prosperous in recent years, and the branch of the Cui clan where he is located also has a tendency to replace the main cadre of the Cui family.

As for the sudden attack on the road repair team of the Great Song Dynasty this time, on the surface, it should have been caused by the accidental "Park Girl Incident", but before the corresponding, Huang Jie secretly contacted the gate valve of Goryeo, and used the "water and land breeding technology" in exchange for the accommodation and permission of the government and the opposition to build the "Song Li Friendship Road", but it was omitted that Cui Zhuo's line had an inseparable connection.

But he also said that after Jin Dazhong reported the situation outside the city and Huang Jie's request to Cui Zhuo, Cui Zhuo had already burst into laughter, raised his hand and pointed to the east and said, "Joke! Big joke! There are only more than 10,000 Song people outside the city, so they dare to ask the general to go out of the city and ask for the guilt? ”

Last night, because of the hurry, it really scared him a lot, and it was not until this morning that he ordered people to take a look, and only to find that the Song army outside the city was only more than 10,000 people, and it looked like the troops were obviously insufficient, but they set up a large camp outside the east gate, and in front of the city gates on the north, west, and south sides, they each put a thousand people to block the gate.

Therefore, after Jin Dazhong brought back the news, Cui Zhuo's first thought was that the Song people were very inward-looking, and only 10,000 people dared to threaten the generals of Dagoryeo, and they dared to threaten to attack the city, this is not a big joke, what else can be considered a big joke?

Cui Zhuo's style naturally infected a cadre of his generals, and someone said loudly: "I heard that the Song State and the Jurchens were at war, and they were all defeated in the battle, even if the monarch and emperor were captured by the Jurchens, they also dared to come to my Great Goryeo to show off their might?" ”

is even more humane: "The Jurchens are not defeated by my strong army in Goryeo, and the weak soldiers of the Song State are not enough to be afraid!" The last general, please be allowed to go out of the city and fight with the Song people! ”

Someone took the lead, naturally someone followed, and soon everyone in the hall of Goryeo generals would be invited to fight, and Cui Zhuo smiled at it. However, although Cui Zhuo is very confident, he does not have any troops at the moment, the so-called 50,000 troops sent from Kaijing are actually only more than 30,000 people, and the other 20,000 are not in a hurry because Cui Zhuo feels that it is not necessary, and the military salary and accommodation of 20,000 people naturally become empty salaries into Cui Zhuo's pocket.

After arriving in Xijing, Cui Zhuo naturally couldn't personally check one construction site at a time, so he naturally released the army, so this was in Xijing, and it was only his 3,000 descendants and 5,000 foot soldiers, plus Xijing itself was less than 5,000 defenders.

However, it can be seen from the fact that the Goryeo defenders dared to go to the city to smash the door and kick the people to the city wall to help defend it when they heard that the enemy army was attacking at night, and it can be seen that the lack of soldiers was really not a big problem for them.

Cui Zhuo immediately thought about it, and then also assigned three generals of the descendant troops, each leading 500 cavalry troops out of the city from the north, west, and south gates to fight the 1,000 Song troops blocking the gate.

In Cui Zhuo's opinion, the Song army must have made a stupid move because of the lack of manpower, so they dared to let only a thousand people block the city gate, and it seemed that they were all foot soldiers, so it was expected that sending five hundred cavalry should be able to easily kick and disperse.

You must know that the combat effectiveness of the Goryeo Iron Cavalry at this time is still quite good, and not only did they beat the Jurchens in the north, but they also won the battle, so they thought self-righteously: "Damn! Lao Tzu even won the Jurchens, but can't he win against you scum who can't even beat the Jurchens? ”

It's just that, but Cui Zhuo's subordinates came to the city gate like a rainbow, and they were dumbfounded when they looked out. But in front of the moat outside the city gate in the north, west and south, the Song army actually cut down trees and made one after another horse-rejecting piles, and directly carried a shield on the trestle to resist the rain of arrows at the head of the city and put out a concave-shaped horse-rejecting pile array, and then also set up a step bow array on the horse-rejecting pile, so that they could wait for the Goryeo people to send it to the door themselves.
