Volume 10 Heading North Chapter 841 [Three Kingdoms]

No matter how many mistakes and omissions Zhao Huan's tricks are, anyway, the matter has come to this, and the goal has naturally been achieved. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

However, speaking of which, the various rituals, utensils, and regulations required by the emperor to worship the heavens are extremely complex, and if they are to be done from scratch, it will naturally take a little time to prepare. But don't forget, everyone, not long ago, Zhao Huan didn't send someone to Qufu to sacrifice Kong, and by the way, he went to the Fengfu sacrifice ground at the foot of Mount Tai, and naturally the things that should be used are ready-made, as if they were prepared for him in the dark.

Then, in the end, what is missing is the people who cheered at the ceremony. Taishan Feng Zen such a major event, naturally few guests, he also issued an edict to summon the kings and relatives of the emperor in Beijing, civil and military officials rushed to Mount Tai, that is, even Zhao Ji in the Longde Palace was also called to.

As for the state affairs, it is naturally the same as the crown prince supervising the country, and among the four auxiliary ministers, Bai Shizhong and Zhang Bangchang were left to assist, and Wang Hao and Song Huan were also called to Mount Tai.

Of course, Zhao Huan, who was busy with everything, did not forget Huang Jie and Zhao Fujin, who were far away in Huangzhou, as well as the Empress Dowager Zheng, sent three groups of palace people to summon him in a row, but Huang Jie didn't even give him face for things like the king, how could he give this face to go to Mount Tai to watch him play, so naturally it was returned again, and the Empress Dowager Zheng also resigned on the grounds that she was too old and frail to travel a long distance, and she was afraid that she would not be able to catch up with the festival now.

It's just that, according to the system of ancient Zhou rites, the emperor sacrificed to the sky at the autumn equinox, but if it was to seal Mount Tai, it was a little hasty in time, and finally Zhao Huan decided to first sacrifice in the autumn equinox, and then in February of the third year of the middle to the peak of the official ceremony of the Zen ceremony, and took advantage of this time difference to send envoys to Goryeo, Japan, Annam, Tubo and Western Xia, asking them to quickly send envoys to watch the ceremony, and even brazenly sent envoys to Danzhou, and also sent an invitation to Zongwang.

In the end, whether Zong Wang would agree to come to watch the ceremony, Huang Jie naturally had no interest in caring, but Zhao Huan finally made the matter of Feng Chan Taishan, but it made Huang Jie feel as if he was blocked in his chest in one breath, and he didn't know what was wrong, but he just felt out of breath.

Speaking of which, Huang Jie is fully prepared to deal with the second southward movement of the Jin army, but now the development of the situation seems to be that he is trying his best to clench his fists and prepare to attack, but suddenly there is no goal, how can it not make people so depressed?

I can't think about it, so Huang Jie can only continue to practice Huangzhou Wei in Huangzhou, anyway, the longer it drags on, the better it will be for Huang Jie and Da Song.

At the same time that Zhao Huan stayed at the foot of Mount Tai and was busy with Zhang Luo's sealing of Chan, the envoys he sent to Western Xia had not yet arrived in Qinzhou, and the news of Li Qianshun's troops marching south to invade also came.

On the sixth day of September in the second year of Dazhong to Sheng, Li Qianshun led 60,000 troops from Xingqing Mansion to the south, first sending troops to capture the castles built by the Song Dynasty on the Xia border one after another. Then they divided their troops into three routes, entering and occupying Tiande, Yunnei, Wuzhou and Hedong Baguan area, as well as Zhenwucheng on the Song border (now Yulinjing, Shaanxi), and then in early October, they captured Xi'an Prefecture in the Song Dynasty, Jianning Qi in Linzhou, and Huaide Army, and took advantage of the victory to conquer Tiandu Zhai and Siege Lanzhou, and withdrew after plundering and retreating.

After the Great Song Dynasty learned about it, it first hesitated about whether to send Liu Fa and Liu Zhongwu, who were guarding Qinzhou and Huanzhou in the northwest, to help, and then debated whether to send the northwest troops now gathered in Bazhou to help, and finally came to the conclusion that Liu Fa and Liu Zhongwu were to stick to Qin and Huanerzhou, but ordered the Shengjie army, which had just returned to Longzhou, to rush to Lanzhou to support. However, despite several urgings from the imperial court, Tong Guan used the lack of grain and grass and insufficient armaments as an excuse to press the Shengjie army in Longzhou and did not move until the beginning of October, when Li Qianshun succeeded in plundering and began to retreat, Tong Guan also led the army slowly to Lanzhou.

Seeing that the northwest was eroding day by day, at the beginning of October, he had to follow the advice of the seed master, so he had to send the seed master to lead 50,000 western troops to Lanzhou to relieve the siege. But at this time, the eight halls of Hedong, as well as Xi'an Prefecture, Linzhou Jianning, Huaidejun, and Tiandu Village were all occupied by Western Xia.

After Tong Guan arrived in Lanzhou in mid-October, he closed the city under the pretext of holding on to help and did not come out, so he watched the people of the Great Song Dynasty move out of Xi'an Prefecture and other cities, and moved the party to repair the city and strengthen the city defenses.

By the time the early division finally led 50,000 reinforcements to Lanzhou in November, Li Qianshun had already completed the strategic defense of the Eighth Pavilion in Hedong and the area around Xi'an Prefecture, and formed a confrontation with the Great Song Dynasty.

Speaking of which, Zhao Huan was about to happily send someone to invite Li Qianshun of Western Xia to come to watch him seal Zen, but the envoy had not yet entered the country, and was slapped in the face by Li Qianshun, Zhao Huan naturally quit, so he also sent an envoy to question Li Qianshun, but Li Qianshun's answer was that this Hedong and Xi'an Prefecture and other places have been the territory of Western Xia "since ancient times", and now he is just like the Great Song Dynasty seeks to take back the sixteen states of Yanyun to get back the homeland of Western Xia, and there is nothing wrong with it.

In addition, Li Qianshun also questioned the Great Song Dynasty why he did not pay the arrears of the New Year's coins all these years, and asked the Great Song Dynasty to quickly hand over the arrears of the New Year's coins over the years, otherwise he would personally lead the troops to pick them up.

Speaking of which, in the battle of the Rouwolf Pass, Li Qianshun was broken by the seed master after breaking his backbone, but he also worked hard to carry out a series of economic and political reforms in the Western Xia, and at that time Huang Jie controlled the Jin Yu Society and through the channels of the Western Xia to the Tianzhen Emperor in the hinterland of the Northern Liao Zhenzhou blood transfusion support, so in the past few years, the military and economic strength of the Western Xia has gradually recovered, but what I didn't expect is that Li Qianshun's vision is poisonous, and the news that the Jin army went south to besiege Bianliang, the capital of the Great Song Dynasty, was transmitted back to the Western Xia. His eyes lit up, and then he actively planned to prepare for the war, and now he decisively stretched out his fangs, and he also stripped off a large piece of flesh and blood from Da Song.

For a while, the government and the opposition of the Great Song Dynasty panicked, and the civil and military officials in Tokyo who had just been weakened by the siege of the Jin army also remembered that the group of jackals in Western Xia was not a fuel-efficient lamp originally.

Especially Zhao Huan, who is now in Qufu and is preparing Mount Tai to seal Zen, is even more like sitting on pins and needles, but he is not coming back at this time, nor is he continuing to stay in Qufu, it is really a dilemma.

After he arrived in Lanzhou, he took over the northwest defense from Tong Guan as soon as possible, and ordered Liu Fa and Liu Zhongwu to send elite soldiers to Huizhou and Hezhou for reinforcements, and finally invited Tong Guan and his Shengjie army back to Longzhou to continue to retire, Tong Guan was also happy to obey his fate, and returned to Longzhou at the end of November with the Shengjie army.

For a time, the situation in the entire north also showed such a strange posture: the northern hunting troops in the northeast led by the seed master Dao, Yixiong, Ba Erzhou, confronted the Jin army; The Northwest Army, led by the Seed Division, confronted the Western Xia Army, saying that it was the Three Kingdoms and the dogs and teeth were intertwined, which was also appropriate.
