However, it was said that Li Gang stopped the edict of ceding the three places here and did not issue it, and someone had already reported it to Song Qinzong, and after Qinzong heard the report, he was shocked and angry, and immediately summoned Li Gang to the palace for questioning. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Li Gang is calm and fearless, and he will see His Majesty since entering the palace.

When he saw Qinzong in the palace, Li Gang had just paid homage, and Qinzong asked loudly: "Why did you privately withhold the edict of ceding the three places?" You know that King Kang and Zhang Bangchang have arrived at Jinying as hostages, if they don't issue an edict, how can their lives be saved? If the Jin army does not have an edict, it will not stop the army, how can it protect Bianjing? ”

Li Gang got up unhurriedly, took out a few pieces of music from his arms and said: "Your Majesty, don't panic, today I am patrolling the city, and the ministers have met a few messengers from the army of King Qin, and there will be several troops of King Qin arriving in the near future, and they will definitely be able to retreat from the enemy." "Let's put it on the table.

Qin Zong didn't look at those tables either, pulled them aside and said angrily: "The Jin army is besieging the city with 100,000 people, and there are many soldiers and horses from all walks of life, but the opponent? Although this Qinzong is cowardly, he is not a foolish person, except for the Western Army, what kind of goods are the other military horses of the Song Army in various places, he knows very well in his heart.

Li Gang was not in a hurry, and lowered his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the soldiers and horses of King Qin who came this time are all elites from all walks of life. First of all, Ma Zhong, the commander of Kaifeng, recruited tens of thousands of troops in western Beijing, and in recent days, he was able to lead new soldiers to arrive, and the soldiers recruited were all men who dared to fight. In addition, Fan Qiong, the Bianjing inspection envoy, led more than 10,000 cavalry and horses, and will also arrive in the near future. Tens of thousands of western armies led by Yao Pingzhong and Qin Feng will also come. The rest of the Qinwang military horses will also arrive, the most elite is the military horses of Shandong Road Fanzhen, and the 30,000 military horses of Xuanfu Hu Lan will also arrive in Bianjing City in recent days. The minister estimated that after the soldiers and horses of the Qinwang from all walks of life gathered, there would be more than 200,000 troops and horses, so there was no need to be afraid of the Jin people. When the 200,000 troops and horses have arrived, even if they want to negotiate peace with the Jin people, they don't have to cede Taiyuan and other three places. ”

Hearing this, Qin Zong's cheeks softened slightly, and he hurriedly asked, "Then the female Xuanfu of Shandong Road Fan Town also personally led the troops?" Li Gang said: "Exactly, the previous Hu Lan twice invited into Hebei to fight against the Jin army, but the Emperor did not allow it, and now the Jin people hit the capital, His Majesty issued an edict to order the world's soldiers and horses to Qin Wang, and she personally commanded 30,000 troops and horses to come to Qin Wang. Hu Lan's troops are all elite military horses, and 30,000 elite people can block Jinren. ”

Qin Zong breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I heard that this Hu Lan is really elite, but the father was also worried that she was difficult to control, and even more worried that she is now the Xuanfu envoy of the feudal town. ”

When Li Gang heard this, his heart was slightly shocked, he had never thought of this section before, and always thought that Emperor Daojun had not allowed Shandong Road troops and horses to go to Hebei to resist the Jin army, which was caused by Cai Jing's traitorous ministers who were jealous of their talents and repeated slander, and now after listening to what Qinzong said, Li Gang realized that Hu Lan had committed the most taboo thing for the emperor.

The most important part of the emperor's mental trick is how to control his subordinates and provide for his own drive, and the control of his subordinates is nothing more than to control his subordinates with three kinds of grace, righteousness and power, and the courtiers who worry the emperor the most are the courtiers who have high merit and no reward. After Hu Lan recruited An, he opened a feudal town alone, and he has been in a semi-independent state, a courtier like her, the Song court naturally can't let her expand her territory, and it is not advisable to transfer Hu Lan to the center to entrust her with important tasks, or transfer to other places, and it is also embarrassing because of Hu Lan's status as a woman.

At this moment, Li Gang completely understood why Emperor Daojun didn't use the Shandong Road military horse, but seeing that General Qinzong blurted out the worry in his heart, Li Gang also knew that this new monarch was still immature compared to his Laozi Daojun Emperor, and he actually said what he thought in his heart. At that moment, Li Gang cheered up and said: "Your Majesty is relieved, I have heard that this woman acts in righteousness, and she is very loyal, and when her soldiers and horses arrive, the ministers will definitely come to the camp to meet her in person, and know the righteousness. ”

Qin Zong slowly bowed his head and said: "Since this is the case, then the matter of withholding the edict will be stopped first, but Aiqing must be sure that he can defeat the Jin army, otherwise if he is defeated, and then open peace talks, the Jin people will ask for guilt, and I will not be able to protect Aiqing." ”

Li Gang is the main battle faction, naturally knows that he is the main battle, and now he has completely blocked the retreat, if he really can't defeat the Jin army, and then open peace talks in the future, the court will definitely push himself out to bear the blame of the Jin people. At that moment, Li Gang bowed without hesitation and said: "Your Majesty is at ease, the minister is willing to make a military order, if you can't defeat the Jin people, you will be willing to accept the law of the country." ”

It can be said that Qinzong still treats people with sincerity and has spoken thoroughly with Li Gang, so Li Gang also cheered up and continued to command and defend the capital. Under the command of Li Gang, the Kaifeng army and civilians repelled the attacks of the Jin army several times within a few days and defended Kaifeng City, but the Jin army did not retreat, and Kaifeng City was still surrounded by the Jin army, and the situation was still very critical.

In the first year of Jingkang, the second half of the first month of the fourth year of the Jin Tianhui, when the king of Kang Zhao Gou and the prime minister Zhang Bangchang were hostages in the Jin camp according to the requirements of the Jin army, the reinforcements of the king of Qin from all over the Song Dynasty gradually came to the capital, and the first batch of commanders Ma Zhong led the Jingxi recruitment, as soon as they arrived in Kaifeng City, they encountered the Jin soldiers at Shuntianmen, and Ma Zhong led the troops to take the initiative to attack, killing and wounding many Jin soldiers.

Although the newly recruited military horses of Ma Zhong's department are all new troops, they are all folk heroes, dissatisfied with the Jin people burning and looting all the way, and they are all willing to fight to the death.

Then, Fan Qiong led 10,000 cavalry to arrive from Jingdong. A few days later, the 70,000 western troops of Jingyuan and Qin Feng led by the famous general, Hebei and Hedong Road envoys, and Yao Pingzhong, the envoy of Wu'an Army, also arrived.

Later, the reinforcements of the king of Qin from all over the country have arrived, on the 28th of the first month, the army and horses of Shandong Road under the personal leadership of Sanniang, also rushed to the eastern suburbs of Bianjing, the Song army all units together, the total number of troops reached more than 200,000, the Song army overwhelmed the Jin army in the total number of troops and momentum, the Jin army Wanyan Zong saw that the Song army was strong, so he had to temporarily avoid the Song army's edge, withdraw the army to the north, retreat to Mu Huogang, and Kaifeng City was also temporarily relieved.

Hearing the arrival of the army of King Qin from all walks of life, the soldiers and civilians inside and outside Kaifeng City in Tokyo were cheering, all rushed to tell each other, went to the city to watch together, and even asked Li Gang and other important ministers for their lives, to swear to fight the Jin army. Li Gang was very pleased with the determination of the army and the people to resist gold because the army and the people were all of one mind, and the Lord's and Peace's faction were temporarily restrained and did not dare to easily propose peace.

Since Li Gang had a sincere discussion with Qinzong, he was also very diligent, commanding the army and the people to defend closely day and night, striking at the Jin soldiers, and giving generous rewards to those who fought bravely to kill the enemy. After the Jin army retreated north, Li Gang personally went out of the city and met with the generals of the Qinwang army and horses outside the city one by one, while appeasing the troops and horses of all roads, while gathering the generals and commanding as a whole.

At the beginning of February of the first year of Jingkang, after the 30,000 troops and horses of the Shandong Road Department arrived one after another, Li Gang personally went to Sanniang's camp to meet Sanniang. Seeing that Li Gang, a famous minister, had arrived in person, Sanniang led Zhang Shuye, Chen Xizhen and others to greet him outside the camp in person. After catching Li Gang, Sanniang first led Li Gang to inspect the camp, and saw the majestic military horses on Shandong Road, Li Gang was very pleased and appreciated.

When she arrived at the tent, Sanniang was also very humble, and invited Li Gang to sit on the main seat, and sat first on the left, Zhang Shuye sat first on the right, and the rest of the generals Chen Xizhen, Huang Wenbing, Lin Chong, Hua Rong, Zhang Qing, Li Kui, Liu Tang, Zhu Tong, Lei Heng, Ling Zhen and other generals sat separately. Li Gang took out the intention of the Qin Dynasty and read it in public, and appeased the generals, and finally Li Gang said: "The princes came to King Qin from afar, and the court was very pleased. All the generals thanked for their grace, and Li Gang asked Sanniang to talk to Uncle Zhang alone, and the generals took their leave and dispersed.

When the generals dispersed, only Li Gang, Sanniang, and Zhang Shuye were left in the tent, and Li Gang told Qinzong's concerns to show that he was open-minded. Uncle Zhang's heart also sank, it turned out that the emperor was worried about the high merit and shocked the master, but he didn't expect that the reason why Sanniang was not allowed to send troops to Hebei was here, and he was worried that Sanniang would be dissatisfied, but he heard Sanniang laugh and said: "The official family is also a small family, my Hu Lan is talking about the way for the sky, hoeing the strong and helping the weak, and now the golden dog is burning and looting in my Central Plains, causing the people of the Central Plains to live poorly, it is my Hu Lan's great enemy, and the country and the people to eliminate the evil and resist the enemy, why do you need to be rewarded?" ”

After a pause, Sanniang got up, smiled heartily and hugged her fists and said to Li Gang: "Enxiang, but rest assured, this trip to King Qin, Hu Lan is here for loyalty, is here to protect the people, don't ask for any reward, and the reward after the war does not need to be paid by the court, this is what the courtiers should do!" ”

Uncle Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, Li Gang twisted his beard with a smile and said: "Hu Xuanfu is really an ambitious heroine among women, with Hu Xuanfu here, it is more certain to repel the Jin people." Sanniang said: "Now that our troops and horses have arrived, I will send troops to invite the golden dog tomorrow, and I can see that I can break the enemy." Li Gang was overjoyed, and Uncle Zhang was also greatly relieved.

Sure enough, the next day, Sanniang's personal commander army and horses attacked, to the Jin military camp to invite the attack, the Jin army sent a soldier and horse to meet the attack, the two armies fought for a long time, the Shandong Road army and horses defeated the Jin army, Wanyan Zongwang had to lead the army to retreat to the camp, Sanniang's army and horses killed and injured thousands of Jin people, and returned victorious.

Seeing that the military and horses of Sanniang's army and horses were extraordinary, coupled with the garrison of Kaifeng City and more than 200,000 reinforcements from King Qin in various places, the military situation was very unfavorable to the Jin army, which made Zong Wang, the leader of the Jin army, have to consider retreating.

At the same time, Qinzong could not withstand the persuasion of the peace faction, and had a soft bone disease, so he actually concealed from Li Gang and sent Lieutenant General Yuwenxu to send the edict of cession of the three towns intercepted by Li Gang to Jinying, fully agreed to Jin's request for land cession compensation, and went to Jinying with Su Wang Zhao Shu instead of Kang King Zhao Gou, and then met Jin's request to replace the hostages. Under these circumstances, Zong Wang began to withdraw his troops on February 10, and the threat of Kaifeng City was temporarily lifted.

After hearing that the edict ceding the three places was still sent to the Jin camp, Zhang Shuye couldn't help but kneel to the north and cry loudly: "The people of the three places smell that the court has abandoned them like clothes, how can they not teach people to be chilled?" Sanniang's heart was not a taste, she couldn't imagine that Song Ting's cartilage disease had really reached the bone marrow, so she had to help Zhang Shuye and comforted: "I think that the people of the three places will never be willing to be enslaved by the Jinren." ”

Uncle Zhang cried at night: "What the court has done like this has taught people to be chilled and to see no hope." Sanniang stood with a sword, looked at the mountains and rivers in the north and said slowly: "The fate is in my own hands, and I will change the fate of the people in the world!" ”
