On top of the court, Zhao Liangsi told the ins and outs of the matter, he was the Yan Zhao people, and he still had some eyeliner in the eight states of Yanbei, he had only been away from Beijing for a few days, and a Yanbei person came to him to report secretly, and he made it clear about the Jin State and the Song Dynasty.

It turned out that in June of the seventh year of Xuanhe, the Liao State was destroyed by the Jin State, and after the Liao Tianzuo Emperor was captured, except for the Western Liao, the remnants of the Liao were swept away by the Jin. Less than a month after Jin Taizu returned to Jin from Yanjing to Beijing, he fell seriously ill and died.

When Wanyan Aguta was alive, a group of Jin nobles had already proposed that after the fall of the Liao State, they would take advantage of the situation to invade the Song Dynasty, and at this time, the Song court did do a provocative Zhang Jue incident of the Jin State, but Aguta stopped the restlessness of the nobles, and finally tried to override the public opinion and restrain the generals to abide by the alliance between the Song and Jin, just asking for the New Year's coins to form an alliance with the Song State.

I didn't want the ink of the Song-Jin alliance to dry, Ah Guda left Yanjing and returned to Shangjing before he died of illness in less than ten months, and Jin Taizong succeeded to the throne after Yan Sheng. As a result, some generals of Jin, such as Zong Wang and Zong Han, who had long advocated the invasion of the Song Dynasty, proposed to use troops against the Song Dynasty under the pretext that the Song Dynasty had broken the agreement. In the third year of Jin Tianhui (1125) and October of the seventh year of Song Xuanhe, the newly succeeded Jin Taizong Wanyan Sheng did not have the prestige of his father to suppress a strong Jin nobleman, in order to stabilize his throne, appease his subordinates, and respond to the provocation of the Song court, he agreed to the request of the nobles and issued an edict to invade the Song Dynasty.

The Jin soldiers who got the emperor's will began to assemble quickly, and the Jin army was divided into two routes, and the western route army was led by Wanyan Zonghan to attack Taiyuan from the clouds; The Eastern Route Army, with Wanyan Zongwang as the main general, attacked Yanjing from Pingzhou.

After listening to what Zhao Liangsi said, Emperor Daojun also looked sluggish, and only muttered, "Why do you say that my Great Song Dynasty violated the covenant?" Zhao Liangsi said with a sad face: "One is that the annual coins have not been paid on time, and the other is because of Zhang Jue's attachment in the clouds. "The New Year's coin was not paid on time, just because after Sanniang and others made a fuss in Tokyo, the government and the opposition were in turmoil at that time, and it was the Song Dynasty that temporarily pressed the New Year's coin, and only planned to wait for the matter to calm down before going to pay.

When Emperor Daojun heard this, he hurriedly said: "Give it, the New Year's coins will be given immediately, as long as they stop their troops." After a pause, he asked, "What is the matter of Zhang Jue in the clouds?" As soon as these words came out, Cai Jing, Tong Guan and others felt slightly embarrassed, but Cai Jing Tong Guan and others couldn't think of such a big thing as Zhang Jue, and Emperor Daojun actually forgot about it.

Zhang Jue is a native of the Han Dynasty of Liao, a native of Yifeng in Pingzhou, a Jinshi of the Liao Dynasty, and an official deputy envoy to the Liaoxing Army. When the Song and Jin invaded Liao, the Jin army won a great victory and occupied most of the Liao State. Zhang Jue, the defender of the Liao State, surrendered to Jin Wanyan Zonghan in Pingzhou, and was named the envoy of the Linhai Navy and the governor of Pingzhou.

Later, Song Jin reached the redemption of the city, and Jin Taizu gave Yanjing, Zhuo, Yi, Tan, Shun, Jing, and Ji to the Song Kingdom. Since Pingzhou entered the Khitan nationality, it was organized into an army, so it did not give Pingzhou to the Song people, but regarded Pingzhou as Nanjing, and Zhang Jue served as the guard.

When the Jin State gave Yanjing to the Song State, it moved the people in the city, and only gave the empty city to the Song State, and the people who moved must pass by the road of Pingzhou, Zhang Jue saw this, and his heart was uneasy. Sure enough, then the Jin army planned to start moving the people of Pingzhou, Zhang Jue felt that this matter was inappropriate, for the sake of the people under his rule, and also for his own plan, Zhang Jue had different ambitions.

At the end of May of the seventh year of Xuanhe, Zhang Juewei relocated the people of Pingzhou in the edict of the Jin State, thinking that the only way out at this time was to descend to the Song Dynasty, and at this time, among the remaining generals of the Liao State to descend to the Jin, Zuo Qigong, Yu Zhongwen, Cao Yongyi, Kang Gongbi, etc. passed through Pingzhou, Zhang Jue sent people to kill them in the chestnut forest, so he occupied Nanjing Pingzhou and rebelled against the Jin Dynasty and surrendered to the Great Song Dynasty.

At that time, after Tong Guan received the news of Zhang Jue's return, he reported the matter, just because the Song Dynasty was disturbed by the matter of the year-old coin covenant at that time, and Emperor Daojun heard that there were Jin generals coming to surrender, so he didn't want to agree to it.

Then Tong Guan obeyed the order and accepted Zhang Jue. When Zhang Jue descended to the Song Dynasty, Wanyan Aguta was still in power, and when he heard about this, he did not want to use swords and soldiers in vain, but sent an envoy to tell the officials of Pingzhou, saying: "I temporarily lived in Pingzhou and rewarded your officials and people for being the first to surrender, so I promoted Pingzhou to the prefecture level as Nanjing, reduced forced labor, reduced taxes, and the favor has also arrived, why bother to be a traitor and rebel again?" Now I want to march to attack Nanjing, but it is the busy season of farming, and I can't bear to endanger the people because of a wicked person. Besides, the Liao country has been owned by me, and you are alone there, what can you do after all? Today, only the chief offender will be punished, and the rest will be released as well. ”

After Yan Aguta's edict did not play a role, and after Zhang Jue surrendered to the Song Dynasty, he waited for battle, thinking that the Jin army would send troops to crusade, but he didn't want to wait for a painless edict, so he thought that the Jin army was afraid of the Song army, and his own ambition was inflated, so he did not ask Tong Guan for instructions, so he sent troops to attack the Jin army without authorization.

In June of the seventh year of Xuanhe, Zhang Jue's 50,000 soldiers and horses were stationed in the suburbs of Runzhou, trying to coerce Qian, Lai, Run, and Xi to surrender. The general of the Jin State, Wanyan Yanmu, set out from Jinzhou to go to the crusade, and repelled Zhang Jue in a battle, and wanted to take advantage of the victory to attack Nanjing Pingzhou, but it was rainy in the summer season and could not advance, so he retreated and stationed in Haitu.

Not long after, and then Wanyan Yanmu and Zhang Jue fought another battle in Rabbit Ear Mountain, but this battle was Wanyan Yanmu was defeated by Zhang Jue, and Zhang Jue reported to the Great Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty organized the Taining Army in Pingzhou, appointed Zhang Jue as the envoy of the festival, Zhang Dungu and others were crowned as Huiyu Pavilion to be systematized, and took out tens of thousands of taels of silver and tens of thousands of horses of silk to reward the army.

Zhang Jue's matter has completely angered the Dajin State so far, and the annual coin has not been disbursed, but now the Song court actually accepts the rebel generals of the Jin State, and he has also been rewarded for the traitorous general's war exploits in attacking the Jin State, which is Chiguoguo's provocation and war behavior.

After listening to Tong Guan, Emperor Daojun remembered, but Emperor Daojun did not plan to come forward to solve the matter, so he scolded Tong Guan when he said that this matter was handled by Tong Guan at that time, and ordered to teach Tong Guan to deal with this matter himself, and it was necessary to deal with it properly and teach Jin Guo to strike the army.

After Tong Guan got the will, he had to take the order hard, so he rushed to Taiyuan, and took Zhao Liangsi with him before leaving. When he arrived in Taiyuan after ten months, Tong Guan ordered Zhao Liangsi to send an envoy to the Jin Kingdom, hoping to pray for peace.

In September of the seventh year of Xuanhe, the East Route Army of the Jin Kingdom made rapid progress and captured Danzhou, Jizhou and other places one after another. After Yan Zonghan's Western Route Army arrived in Pingzhou in Yunzhong, he first defeated Zhang Juesuo's army and horses, and then heard that Tong Guan had arrived in Taiyuan and gathered the elite Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty to prepare to fight against the Jin army. Wanyan Zonghan sent a detailed investigation on the one hand, and on the other hand, he did not move, and sent an envoy to Taiyuan, intending to teach the envoy to wait and see how the Song army was prepared.

So the envoys on both sides went to their respective military camps, and after Yan Zonghan saw Zhao Lianghei, he denounced the Song court for treachery and did not pay the year coin, and also accepted the rebel general Zhang Jue of the Jin State, and proposed that the land in the clouds such as Pingzhou that Zhang Jue was attached to when he surrendered to the Song Dynasty was the land of the Jin State, and he should return it to the Jin State together, and hand over Zhang Jue and other rebel generals.

After listening to Yan Zonghan's words, Zhao Liangsi naturally didn't have the words to agree, but said that as long as Jin Guo stopped his troops, everything would be easy to discuss. He first promised that within this month, he would pay the New Year's coin first, and as for the matter of returning Pingzhou and Zhang Jue and others, he would wait until he replied to Tong Guanjuan's request to the imperial court.

However, the envoy of the Jin State saw in Taiyuan that although the Song army was gathering troops and horses, it was in a hurry, the troops were insufficient, the armaments were not complete, and at the same time, Tong Guan and other generals did not have the will to resolutely resist. After receiving the news of the Song army, Wanyan Zonghan was overjoyed, so his appetite became greater, and then he sent an envoy to Taiyuan, proposing to Tong Guan that the Song State should cede the land east of Hedong and Hebei to the Jin Dynasty, and the Song and Jin Dynasty were bounded by the Yellow River.

Tong Guan was stunned when he heard this condition of the strike, and he didn't dare to refuse in person at the moment, but he first ordered someone to entertain the envoy of the Jin State, and then summoned Wen Huanzhang, Zhao Liangsi and others to discuss.

Wen Huanzhang said: "The Jin people and the Chongqing League, now they actually ask for the cession of Hebei land, it seems that the Jin army's intention to invade the south has been decided, but the only plan for today is to play the son of tomorrow and call on the soldiers and horses of the world to fight hard." Tong Guan frowned and said: "Defeated by the Liao army before, and now the Dajin army and horses are strong, and the Liao army is not yet able to be defeated, can my Song army and horses resist?" I don't think it's better to lead the army and horses back first, and it is important to keep the military horses. ”

Wen Huanzhang was dumbfounded when he heard this, he couldn't imagine that the commander of the First Army, the important minister of the court, was not thinking about how to resist, but thinking about how to escape. At the moment, Wen Huanzhang couldn't take care of much, and hurriedly said: "Privy Secret, think twice, now that the enemy is present, I don't think about how to resist, and now I am committed to leaving, it is to abandon Hedong and the enemy." Hedong is in the hands of the enemy, how can Hebei defend? ”

When Tong Guan heard this, his old face turned red and shouted angrily: "What kind of words is this? I was ordered to declare that the two countries should withdraw their troops, and the official will should be clearly written, and no war should be started without permission. I was ordered to come to sue for peace, and I have no responsibility to defend the land, so how can I stay and defend the land? ”

Wen Huanzhang pleaded: "Grace is above, the Jin army invades the south, I don't know how many people will suffer, if the imperial court army and horses run away, how to explain to the imperial court?" Tong Guan sneered: "I have never spoken of war today, how dare you and I speak of war?" Today, I want to declare the dismissal of the army, this is the will of the officials, teach me how to resist the decree? ”

Wen Huanzhang said: "The official family is thousands of miles away, I don't know the situation here, the Jin army is strong, and the intention of the southern invasion has been decided." Tong Guan sighed and smiled bitterly: "Can't you see it?" The Jin army is determined to invade the south this time, Mr. Wen, I think I have been in the army for more than ten years, can't I understand such a simple truth? ”

After a pause, without waiting for Wen Huanzhang to answer, Tong Guan continued: "It's really that the court is unprepared, and the officials don't want to fight this battle. ”

Wen Huanzhang was speechless when he heard this, he knew that what Tong Guan said was the truth, the entire Song Kingdom, from the emperor to the common people, actually did not want to start a war with the Jin State, they had already pinned their hopes for peace on the peace bought by the New Year's coin......
