Zhao Yougong led the people forward, but Qiong Suzan stood behind and breathed a long sigh of relief, he knew that he was really in danger just now, this Zhao was full of joy and anger, and he seemed to be revealing murderous intent just now, but in fact he was just tempting, if he didn't say anything about protecting the Tubo warriors just now, it is estimated that he will not be reused in the future. Zhao said very clearly, people without conscience dare not use it. Why is the surname Zhao so young and has such a deep scheming, in comparison, Tubo Yingjie Zhuoma is too far behind, so it can also explain why every step has to be defeated by the Dingguo army.

The next surrender task was handed over to Wu Jue, and the Tubo people trapped in the canyon had lost their fighting spirit, but this did not mean that the Tubo people would willingly lay down their arms and surrender to the Dingguo army. There is always a group of people who are arrogant and can't give up, Zong Zan doesn't want to resist, and Zhuoma Yizan is also the same living dead, but many of these two people's subordinates don't want to surrender the national army like this. For many years, when did the Tibetan warriors be so cowardly? Near evening, several commanders gathered next to a burly strong man, this strong man was Zong Zan's number one general Tie Lun, "Brothers, the little prince and Da Zampu have no intention of fighting again, but we can't just accept our fate, tomorrow the Han people will surrender, and then we will surrender with Xiao Wang, and as soon as we leave the exit of the canyon, we will immediately create a riot, and we will definitely be able to catch the Han people off guard." ”

After listening to Tie Lun's arrangement, everyone nodded their heads, and no one objected. The next day, as Tie Lun said, the Dingguo army let go of the southern end of the Buzeya Pass, and Tie Lun and others walked at the forefront, they lowered their heads and looked very depressed. And Zongzan and Zhuoma Yizan walked last. Wu Jue watched the long stream of people. The expression is stern. Suddenly, he raised his eyebrows, pointed to Tie Lun, who was walking in the forefront, and whispered to the lieutenant general next to him, "Shout, tell all of them to raise their hands." ”

The deputy general didn't understand what Wu Jue meant, but he still shouted in Tubo according to the order, "The Tubo people below have listened, and everyone will raise their hands." Otherwise, you will be killed. ”

When the order was given, some people raised their hands, while others hesitated, among them Tie Lun. At this time, Tie Lun lowered his head, and scolded secretly in his heart, he now has a short knife hidden in his hand, if he raises his hand, won't it be exposed? Tie Lun hesitated, Wu Jue on the top of the mountain clenched the clairvoyant mirror, and a trace of coldness crossed the corner of his mouth. These Tibetan people are really not simple, and they still have so many thoughts at this time. It seems that they must be taught enough lessons. As a series of orders passed down, the originally open southern exit was immediately sealed, and the heavy shield hand blocked the intersection, and the longbowman was behind, seeing this situation, where could Tie Lun and the others still hold on, and now if they don't move, it is better to die than to fight a Han person. Hearing only a roar, Tie Lun's right arm flicked, and there was a bright short knife, "Brothers, the Han dog deceives people too much, fight with them, kill one without loss, kill two to earn!" ”

Tie Lun's greeting, the scene suddenly turned into a pot of porridge, Tie Lun and a few thousand commanders in front led people to attack the exit at the southern end, but the little prince Zongzan who lived in the rear had a heart that sank to the bottom, what did this Tie Lun want to do, did he want to kill everyone? Zhuoma Yizan also disagrees with this spelling, obviously the Han people have an absolute advantage, and the Tubo warriors have almost no chance of winning. Therefore, for the first time, Zongzan and Zhuoma Yizan reached a consensus, and they restrained those subordinates who had not yet caused a riot, and slowly retreated.

Tie Lun can not be said to be heroic, but in the face of a heavy shield array, what is the use of that bravery? Under the strangulation of the bow and arrow, groups of Tibetans lay down, then the shieldmen moved forward, the longbowmen retreated, and a group of captains of gunners began to clear the remnants of Tibet. This was an unfair duel, because the Tibetans suffered heavy casualties, but the Dingguo army was unscathed, and in the face of the fierce Dingguo army, as the casualties increased, many Tubo people collapsed, and they threw themselves on their knees, but they were still greeted with death. After cleaning the battlefield, Wu Jue sent nearly 3,000 remnants of the Tibetan army to the center of the Buzeya Pass, and glanced at the Tubo people who were watching the scene, Wu Jue looked solemn and said loudly, "It seems that it is necessary to tell you that in the future, if there are any rebels, all the followers will be killed, you all remember, if there are still rebels in the future, you had better solve these people yourself, if you don't do it, you will do it yourself, but at that time, there are not one or two people who died." ”

Sweeping their eyes, those Tubo people who were watching couldn't help but shudder, the Han people were really cruel. Then, as if to confirm his words, Wu Jue personally ordered to kill those soldiers who participated in the trouble. In this way, because of the rebellion of Tielun, more than 10,000 Tibetan soldiers died in the southern port. What else can Zhuoma do in his heart except scold Tielun for being stupid?

On the twenty-third day of the twelfth month of the seventh year of Xuanhe, the Potala Palace of the city of Luo, Zhao Yougong personally accepted the surrender of Zongzan and Zhuoma Yizan, and on the same day Zongzan was named the new Great Zanpu, and the original Great Zanpu Zhuoma Yizan was sent back to Chang'an, and those Tubo troops were integrated and will be gradually reorganized into the cities of Namco and Gama Dansa as servant troops in the next six months. In other words, Zongzan, the great Zampu, has no military power, he only has the right to govern Tibet, but he has no military power, will Zongzan be dissatisfied and rise up to resist? Maybe, but Zhao Yougong is not afraid, because he still has Zhuoma Yizan in his hand, Zongzan is disobedient, it doesn't matter, not to mention how many soldiers and horses he can have, just when the time comes, release Zhuoma Yizan, a mad dog, and Zong Zan will be able to bite Zong Zan all over his body.

Looking at Zhao Yougong on the throne, Qiong Suzan sighed in his heart, he really deserved to be a hero, and with a gesture, he easily set the way for the future of Tubo. Everyone thought that Zhuoma Yizan would die, but Zhao didn't kill someone, just to give Zongzan's little prince a warning, as long as he Zhao wanted to, he could take the position of Dazanpu on Zongzan's head at any time. After the Battle of Tubo, Zhao Yougong decided to rebuild Namco and Amdo City, and stationed Namco with Liu Jian as the general, and transferred Fang Qiliang to leave Fengxiang Mansion and change the town of Gama Dansa, and the city of Gamadansa was Qinghai-Tibet, with the jurisdiction of Baiyu City, Pibo City, and Naxue City. It can be said that all of this was thought out earlier, in order to let Fang Qiliang have no worries, Zhao Yougong also deliberately left Shi Wengong in Qinghai-Tibet Mansion. Assist Fang Qiliang in handling military affairs. And so it goes. It can be said that the whole of Tibet has been divided into two. And the royal capital of Luo some cities are directly exposed to the iron hooves of the Dingguo army, as long as the Luo some cities are a little troubled, the Dingguo army can be killed in a blink of an eye. After arranging the affairs, Zhao Yougong led Mu Niangzi and the others to hurry back to Chang'an, while Dongfang Jin stayed in Luoqi City to preside over the overall situation, at least until the situation was completely stabilized, he could withdraw from Tubo.

When I returned to Chang'an, it was already the end of the year. This year is not too wonderful for Zhao Yougong, because as soon as he returned to Chang'an, he got a shocking news, the second prince of the Dajin Kingdom, Wanyan Zongwang, broke the Tongguan army of more than 100,000 on the bank of the Yongding River, and under the first battle, the army was defeated, not only lost Nanjing Xijin Mansion, but even the Baigou River line collapsed under the impact of the chaotic army. Tong Guan also has an army of more than 100,000 people, so he should hold on for some time anyway. This has to start from ten days ago.

On the nineteenth day of the lunar month, 30,000 Jin Guotie rode under the leadership of Wanyan Zonghan and went straight to the Xiaonan River in the north of Cangzhou. Under normal circumstances, at this time, in order to keep Cangzhou in the south, he must send troops to attack the rear of Dajin Kingdom, but after Yan Zonghan defeated the Xiaonan River, he waited for a day, and still did not wait for reinforcements from Nanjing. In the city of Nanjing, Tong Guan pressed his subordinate generals, but he did not send troops, he knew very well where the limit of his troops and horses was, it was more than enough to defend the city, and he went out of the city to fight and kill himself. The land of Hebei, the plains are vast, this place is simply a paradise for cavalry, and it is precisely the cavalry that the Great Song Dynasty lacks. When I fought with the Xixia people back then, I had learned a lesson, so if it was not necessary, I must not send troops at will to fight with the Jin Guotie cavalry.

Tong Guan's side did not move, but the people below blew up the pot, you know, the official's holy decree has already been issued, and your Tong Shumi is not sick, isn't this a disobedience?

The letter of the Cangzhou government requesting reinforcements flew to Bianliang City like a snowflake, Zhao Ji saw that in addition to anger or anger, sitting on the dragon chair, he slapped the armrest and said angrily, "It's the opposite, it's the opposite, this Tong Guan actually ignored the people of Cangzhou and let the Jurchen barbarians go south, it is really hateful, it really deserves to be killed." ”

The Zhao official family was very angry, and the Chinese martial arts in the hall did not dare to breathe, Wang Huang had a little smile on his face, he didn't care about Tong Guan's situation, as long as Tong Guan made the official family unhappy, it was a good thing. This Tong Guan and Cai Jing's old puppet are too close, if you can take this opportunity to win Tong Guan in one fell swoop, it will definitely be a good thing. Waiting for Zhao Ji's anger to become smaller, Wang Hao came out and arched his hand, "Your Majesty, Tong Guan refused to send troops, tired of the people of the Great Song Dynasty, and it is difficult for him to escape the blame. ”

Now Cai Jing retreats behind the scenes, although Cai Ying is in charge, but Cai Ying is young and a yin owl, the influence of the DPRK is naturally getting smaller and smaller, and Wang Huang, long sleeves and good at dancing, good at making friends, this prestige is naturally more and more sufficient, and it has the momentum of overshadowing Cai Ying, and now Wang Xiang is out to accuse Tong Guan, and many officials from the household department and the Ministry of Officials have come out to echo it, and for a while Tong Guan has become a rat crossing the street, and everyone shouts and beats, that is, Tong Guan is not in Beijing, if he sees this kind of scene, I don't know how he will feel. He racked his brains in front of him and thought about how to resist the Jurchens, but the people in the back were thinking about the law and engaging in infighting.

The ministers denounced Tong Guan, but Gao Yu frowned. Although Gao Yu has no big money, he has been a lieutenant for many years, and he knows some basic military concepts. Out of conservatism, Gao Yu said, "Please also ask the official family to take a break from the wrath of the thunder, although Tong Guan's move is inappropriate, but it is also excusable, the situation in Nanjing is complicated, presumably out of some considerations, so he did not send troops." The official family doesn't need to be angry, as long as they issue another military order and make a strong statement, Tong Guan will definitely obey the order. ”

Gao Yu spoke, and Cai You, who had been waiting for a long time, couldn't wait to stand up, and he arched his hand and said, "Qi Qi Guan, what Gao Taiwei said is very true, now that the enemy was in the past, he should be safe, how can he kill the general first?" What Wang Xiang said was really ill-intentioned. ”

After speaking, Cai Youyin glanced at Wang Huang suspiciously, hum, the surname Wang is too anxious, Cai Jing hasn't hung up yet, so he is thinking about fighting for power, even if Cai Jing is dead, it won't be his turn Wang Huang, as for Cai Ying, an incompetent and narrow-minded person, what big thing can he achieve? Cai You helped Tong Guan speak, it was definitely not for Tong Guan, but for himself, in short, Wang Huang supported it, he was against it, the two of them stood on the same front before, that was because of Cai Jing's existence, and now Cai Jing is about to enter the ground, and the cooperative relationship should end here.

Gao Yu and Cai You have been officials for many years, and they have their own group of cronies. So these people went out to echo it. For a while, it overshadowed Wang Huang. Such a scenario. Wang Hao hated it so much that the root of his teeth itched, Cai Dalang was really ruthless enough, and he actually wanted to keep Tong Guan, "Cai Shumi, you should tell me, how did this official have ill intentions?" ”

"Hmph, it's taboo to change generals in battle, you are well-read. Don't you understand such a simple truth? At this critical moment, you don't persuade your ministers to take care of the overall situation, but want to kill Tong Guan, isn't it ill-intentioned? Hmph, Cai is really suspicious of you, did you receive any benefits from Yan Zongwang, otherwise why would you be a Jurchen barbarian everywhere? ”

Cai You's words were sharp, and he threatened Wang Huang every sentence. For a while, Wang Hao was angry enough, but he couldn't say anything to refute it. Therefore, it is understandable that he was accused of killing Tong Guan. can be said to be in collusion with the Jurchens, which is really scary enough. The reason why he is so scared is also because he did receive the benefits of Wanyan Zongwang before, when Wanyan Zongwang came to Beijing to discuss an alliance, but gave him a lot of gold and silver treasures, and now the Jurchens are blatantly going south to attack the Great Song Dynasty, this matter has become a big stain, others don't care about it, if you really want to rectify him, this matter can directly beat him to the ground.

Wang Hao is also smart, feeling the doubts and unkindness in Zhao Ji's eyes, he took two steps forward, knelt down directly, held the wat board, and said sadly, "The official, the minister is guilty, the minister has received the benefits of Yan Zongwang before, but it was sent by Yan Zongwang in order to form an alliance, and it was not only the ministers who received the benefits of Yan Zongwang at that time, Cai Xiang, Cai Shumi, Lord Li, Gong Bachelor and others have all received it, if you want to say this, you will be sentenced to collude with the Jurchen barbarians, and the ministers will not be satisfied!" ”

As soon as Wang Huang said this, almost half of the officials in the hall changed their faces, because there were very few people who had not received the benefits of the Jin people, and as Zhao Ji looked over, the hall knelt down in an uproar. Good guy, there was no one standing, and even Cai You, who was majestically accusing Wang Hao just now, also fell to the ground. After watching it for a while, Zhao Ji smiled, but the smile was a bitter one, officials accepted bribes, it was commonplace, and they wouldn't care too much, but none of the civil and military forces in this Manchu Dynasty were honest and clear, and it was too speechless, could he Zhao Ji really not be a good emperor?

Actually, Zhao Guanjia is really not a good emperor, but no one dares to say this, it's okay for Zhao Guanjia to think about it, if others dare to say it, it will definitely be a dead end. The hall was very depressed, Zhao Ji didn't speak, and a group of people didn't dare to get up, and after a long time, they heard a long sigh, "Let's get up, I won't pursue the previous things, but from the sky, if anyone still has a conscience to say good things to the Jurchen barbarians, I will let him go to the prison to stay in the prison." ”

"Xie Majesty Xià Longen, Your Majesty Xià Shengming" The ministers slapped their ass, Zhao Ji looked very ugly, he didn't want to investigate, but there are so many people, how can they be investigated?

Next, it's still Tong Guan's matter, angry is angry, Zhao Ji also has to admit that what Cai You and Gao Yu said is very reasonable, no matter how dissatisfied they are, they have to count on Tong Guan now. So, an arrow flew out of Bianliang City, from the nineteenth day of the lunar month to the twenty-fifth of the lunar month, within six days, there were ten gold medals flying to Nanjing Xijin Mansion, of which on the twenty-fifth day, four gold medals came directly. It's ridiculous to say, ten gold medals in six days are comparable to the twelve gold medals that Zhao Gou gave to Yue Fei in later generations, but the difference is that Zhao Ji wants Tong Guan to send troops, and Zhao Gou wants Yue Fei to retreat.

In the face of the constant urging of the officials, the city generals kept asking for battle, Tong Guan couldn't hold it down after all, he had already won ten gold medals, and if he dragged it out, the next thing he would send might not be a gold medal, but a three-foot white silk or wine. In desperation, Tong Guan still decided to send troops, but he would not send troops to the south, but to the east, after Yan Zonghan hit Cangzhou Mansion, he would fight Jizhou, as long as Wanyan Zongwang was surrounded and beaten fiercely, he was not afraid that Wanyan Zonghan would not come back.

Tong Guan's strategy of encircling Wei to save Zhao can be regarded as the safest method, but can it really be as smooth as expected?

The long journey and the red clouds fill the sky, which seems to herald an ending.

Outside the ancient city of Nanjing, the snow is vast, and it has just snowed heavily in Layue, and many Song soldiers are already a little uncomfortable, especially those soldiers and horses from Liangjing and Jiangnan, when have they ever seen such ice and snow? But on the other hand, the soldiers of the Jin Kingdom, they already lived in the white mountains and black waters, and the environment there was much worse than the ice and snow weather, and a heavy snowfall did not seem to have any effect on the Jurchens. Tong Guan chose to go out of the city to attack Jizhou at this time, not recklessly, he had full consideration, in addition to besieging Jizhou and forcing Yan Zonghan to return to help, he also had another idea, that is, to fight a beautiful victory. Over the years, the Great Song Dynasty has been defeated and fought repeatedly, and the defeat has not even lost its dignity, but there are some big victories, which are all won by the Dingguo Army, and the official family is jealous and hateful to the Dingguo Army. I heard that the Dingguo army entered Tibet and won another battle, but the officials urgently needed a victory to protect their rights and interests.

Tong Guan chose to send troops at this time in addition to the considerations of the imperial court, but also felt that at this time the possibility of success in Jizhou is very high, a heavy snow in the month of La, and now many places near Jizhou have formed a thick layer of ice, this environment is extremely unfavorable to the cavalry march, as long as the Jurchens lose the sharpness of the cavalry, are they afraid of not winning the numerical war inferior Jin soldiers? In this battle, Tong Guan is still eighty percent sure, Wanyan Zonghan went to Cangzhou to take away more than 30,000 people, and now the Jin soldiers and horses in Shunzhou and Jizhou add up to more than 40,000, with 120,000 troops against 40,000 troops, what a numerical advantage, if you can't win the battle like this, it's really time to go home and hold the child.

Tong Guan did not go south to block Yan Zonghan's back road, but went east to attack Jizhou, which really frightened Yan Zongwang. After all, there are only more than 20,000 people defending Jizhou City now, if the Song soldiers really do their best to storm Jizhou City, who can guarantee that they will not be able to defeat it? Therefore, in the face of the current situation, Wanyan Zong Wangsha has a headache, this Tong eunuch is really worthy of being the master who has led the army for many years. Wanyan Zong Wanggui is a master of the art of war of the Jin State, so he naturally knows where his advantages lie, and the reason why he can repeatedly defeat a large number of Song troops in field battles is because the cavalry under his command is sharp, which is the same reason that the Khitans were always able to suppress the Great Song Dynasty back then. But now the weather is icy and snowy, the ground is slippery, and the advantage of the cavalry is gone. The cavalry was forcibly discharged, but once it was charged, it could not be stopped, and the horse was stopped suddenly, and the result was that the men and horses fell together on the slippery ice.

Wan Yan Gao's eyes full of wisdom flashed a little color, he was a little older, he would not be as calm as Wan Yan Zongwang, thought for a moment, and said slowly, "No, first order Mu Han (Wan Yan Zonghan's name) to lead people to retreat to the Yongding River area, and be sure to support us at any time." If it really doesn't work, then order Mu Han and Lao Siqiang to attack Jinfu, I don't believe that the Han people can watch Nanjing fall. ”

Wan Yan Gao's move to encircle Wei and save Zhao Ke is really a bit of a way to return the other body, but as a last resort, Wan Yan Gao and Wan Yan Zongwang don't want to use this trick yet, because it is not easy for the Great Song soldiers and horses to go out of the city once, if you don't try to find an opportunity to gain an absolute advantage this time, it will not be easy to wait until the next time the Song army goes out of the city. Cavalry, you can't use it, but what if you can use cavalry?

When Yan Gao raised this question, Wan Yan Zongwang touched his chin and said to himself, "How to get the cavalry out of the ice and snow?" It's not easy! ”

Wanyan Zongwang pondered for a long time, and he didn't come up with any ideas, but his brain was active, and he couldn't think of it, it didn't mean that others couldn't think of it, so he asked people to go to the city to post a notice that day, as long as anyone could come up with the idea of making the horse's hooves not slip, he would be rewarded with a hundred dollars. After the notice was posted, the response in Jizhou City was very good, a reward of one hundred yuan, the price was just to think of a good idea, who would not want to do this business? Soon someone came to the door, and many people came one after another, not to mention, there were really some people who came up with crooked ideas, some of them wrapped the horse's hooves with thick cloth, and some of them wrapped them with straw, and finally after the test, Wanyan Zongwang found an effective way to wrap some animal skins on the horse's hooves, because of the friction, it was not slippery at all. (To be continued......)
