Chapter 781: Thirty Years in Hedong and Thirty Years in Hexi

Song valve text]——

As soon as this logistical supply was completed, the Henan Jin Army basically stopped eating. But it's not over, this strange army swept to the north bank of the Yellow River again, and the Jin army of the Purple Mountain across the river, this time, the Henan Jin Army is simply desperate Although the recovery of the Central Plains, the Western Army did not send a single soldier, but with this point, the merit of the world, there should also be a part of the Western Army

That's the reason, but here comes the problem again. Xu Wei's merits are great, and everyone in the world knows that if it is simply based on the number of land and cities recovered and annihilated the Jin army, the military exploits of the Purple Gold Tiger are not under the king of Zhejun. It's just that the campaign commanded by Zhi Zhonggu, although there were not many lost territories recovered and relatively few enemies annihilated, were of much greater significance. For example, when the Wushu hit the north bank of the Yangtze River, the soles of the feet of the Emperor Zhao Huan slipped with oil, and the king of Zhejun stayed in Zhenjiang, repelled the Jin people, and preserved the south of the Yangtze River. Even though he didn't annihilate many Jin troops, can you say that he didn't have much credit?

For example, this Northern Expedition, the fight was a second-rate army of the Jin Army, but the people recovered the Central Plains and recovered Tokyo, which is a symbolic x-ng meaning, to put it bluntly, it is a sentence, no matter how many enemies you Xu Wei annihilated in the northwest, no matter how extensive the land is, can you compare with the people who protect the Son of Heaven and the imperial court?

But then again, there are still other people in the south who can come out to stand alone without Zheyan, and it really can't be done without Xu Wei in the northwest, the 200,000 tigers and wolves like the Western Army are not driven by anyone, and the arrogant generals of the Western Army are not controlled by anyone. The dilemma for Xu Liu is that, like Zhe Zhonggu, Xu Wei is already the title of the county king, and among the generals, the seniority is shallow, and the age is young, how can he be rewarded?

You can't also seal the king side by side, right? Not to mention, someone in the ruling minister really proposed that Xu Weigong is great, he is the Great Wall of the country, and he should be crowned king, and he is also the same as the king of Zhejun, the king of one word. Xu Liuzhi thought about it again and again, but he didn't agree, not because he wanted to avoid suspicion, nor because he wanted to get in the way of his cousin, but out of sī considerations, he didn't want his brother to come out of this. The plan he proposed was that Xu Wei's credit would be distributed to his generals, and of course, the children of the Xu family could also be taken care of. Just change Xu Wei's title, remove the word "deputy" that he has hung for many years, and give him some money.

Xu Liu reported this matter to the emperor, and it was approved happily, Xu Wei changed the title of "King of Wuwei County", and appointed the "Sichuan and Shaanxi Xuanfu Disposal Envoy", and the rest of the real and false positions remained unchanged, and gave the inner house treasures, bead robes, gold belts, military vessels, and a number of money. Within two days, Han Shizhong and Yue Fei's commendations also came down, and in full accordance with the plan of the prime ministers, Han Shizhong established the festival, and Yue Fei was promoted to the third grade, serving as the Jinghu Xuanfu envoy and the capital commander respectively.

Another day passed, and the reward for Zheyan also came down. The emperor believed that the ancient merits of Zhezhong cover the contemporary, there is a great achievement of rebuilding rivers and mountains, if not to give a special reward, it is difficult to show the emperor's grace of the great d-ng, so he named Zheyan as the "King of Lin", because the Zhenfu Prefecture of the Zhejia family, once served as the "Linfu Road" economic envoy, so he entrusted "Linzhou" to seal the country, called "King Lin", and was above the ministers.

In fact, there is no need to specifically explain, since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, has there ever been a minister with a different surname as the "one-word king"? Yes, but they were all posthumously sealed, such as Wang Anshi, when Daojun was in power, he was posthumously named "King Shu". Zhe Yanzhi is still alive, and he is named the king of one word, which can be said to be unprecedented, the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, the ministers of internal and external affairs, who can compare with him? Not only is the glory of the king extremely glorious, but everyone including the children of the folded family is polished and promoted

But this waited and waited, and the rewards of the two brothers of the Liu family were not expressed by the emperor for a long time, and only Li Xianzhong of Huaixi was promoted. Xu Liu didn't have to think about it to guess that Empress Liu was not satisfied with this, and the emperor was in a dilemma and didn't know how to deal with it. Xu Liang was too, knowing that the emperor was in trouble, but he saw that the sky was urging Zhao Jin to do this.

Later, Zhao Guan's family couldn't stand it, so he summoned Xu Liu alone, and secretly revealed the idea of sealing Liu Guangguo as the king of the county, Liu Guangshi as the captain, and Liu Guangyuan as the envoy of the festival. Xu Liu asked, why is this? The emperor replied that Liu Guangguo was the deputy commander of the Northern Expedition, and his contribution was not small, so he ......

Xu Liu unceremoniously gave it back, since the Three Dynasties, the county kings who have been enshrined by the Son of Heaven have all been ministers of the Pillar Kingdom who have made great contributions to the world, or they have commanded the king's division, resisted foreign insults, and made great achievements; Either Liang Fu Liangbi, Zuo Tianzi helps to achieve the great cause of Zhongxing, in this way, the king can be convincing. Let's ask Taiwei Liu, how can he dare to make such extravagant hopes?

Liu Guangshi is the commander of Huanqing of the Western Army, and among the marshals of the Western Army, the highest is not the envoy of moderation, why should Liu Guangshi be a captain? As for Liu Guangyuan, he was not held accountable for the defeat at the beginning, he was already gracious, and now he still wants to be a temperant envoy? Does that make sense?

The emperor was speechless, and Xu Liang even said that even if the emperor issued an edict, the prime minister would definitely not pass it here. Zhao Jin had no choice, he actually knew that Liu Guangguo was not qualified to be crowned king, but the queen pleaded again and again, and it was really difficult to refuse. But Xu Liang's attitude is so resolute, it is estimated that it is really out of play.

Xu Liang thought that the emperor had touched a nail this time and should not mention it again. Who would have thought that within two days, the emperor would summon him again and bring up the old matter again. With his understanding of the emperor, if it weren't for Empress Liu's bī being too anxious, the Zhao official family would not be like this. If you go back hard, it's not a difficult thing, he is a lone minister, in charge of the government, if he doesn't nod, this matter will be yellow. But the emperor is the emperor after all, when Emperor Renzong wanted to crown the father of a favorite concubine as the envoy of the festival, he was scolded by Bao Zheng, and spit on Xingzi's face, and finally just took it. But at that time, Bao Zheng was an official, and it was okay for the ministers to do this, but the prime minister couldn't. But just named Liu Guangguo as the king of the county, and he was really unwilling, and the people's hearts were not convinced, after thinking about it again and again, Xu Liang made a concession, didn't Liu Guangguo want to be promoted to Huainan Xuanfu Envoy? The next task of the Huainan Xuanfu Division is to recover Shandong, if Liu Guangguo completes this matter, then the "county king" can discuss.

He was giving the emperor a step, and Zhao Jin probably saw it, and immediately agreed. The next day, an edict was issued, and according to Xu Liu's plan, Liu Guangguo was appointed as the Huainan Xuanfu envoy, and the department was reorganized into the Shenwu Left Army, preparing to recover Shandong.

This is done with the generals who command the army abroad, and the emperor has not forgotten to control the overall situation and strategize the ministers. The first to bear the brunt is Xu Liang. For this Northern Expedition, Xu Liang has been preparing for many years, and he has worked hard, and the credit is not under others. The emperor personally wrote an edict, highly praised and evaluated Xu Liuzhi's merits, and made it a "major military matter in Pingzhang".

In the current system, Shangshu's left and right servants sh-and Tongzhongshu m-n Xia Ping Zhangshi are prime ministers, and Xu Liang's predecessor Shangshu right servant sh-, Tongzhongshu m-n Xia Ping Zhangshi, was originally the second minister, but after the prime minister left, he became a single minister. "Pingzhangshi", originally from Tang Taizong, the full name is "Tongzhongshu M-N Pingzhangshi", this title is very long and awkward, what does it mean? Zhongshu Province and M-N Lower Province were both central government organs in the Tang Dynasty, which means that people with this title negotiated with Zhongshu Province and M-N Lower Province to deal with government affairs. But since the time of Tang Gaozong, those who actually served as prime ministers have added this title. In the Song Dynasty, the name of the prime minister changed greatly. Sometimes it's called Tonghei Zhangshi, sometimes it's called Shangshu Servant sh-, and sometimes it's called Dazai Shaozai and the like.

The two words of Pingzhang mean "to discuss and handle", and the important affairs of the military state are the major affairs of the army and the imperial court. Removing the word "same", there is no one to discuss with, Xu Liang, the "important matter of the military state in Pingzhang", is actually above the prime minister, but he holds a position of real power as the prime minister.

The whole country of the Great Song Dynasty was jubilant and celebrated an unprecedented victory, but the north was really a little gloomy. The loss of the Central Plains, it can be said that the real people are psychologically prepared. Since Wushu was alive after the two unsuccessful attacks on Xianghan, the Song and Jin war situation has some reversal meaning, if you go back earlier, strictly speaking, from the beginning of the Song-Liao Alliance, the Song and Jin people no longer grasp the initiative in the war. The entire court of the Jin Kingdom probably knew that the Central Plains might not be able to be saved. Therefore, the loss of the Central Plains region is acceptable.

What they couldn't accept was that Xu Wei's eight thousand horsemen crossed the Taihang Mountains and attacked Hebei

This place in Hebei, during the Song-Liao War, was a battlefield where the two countries competed. Whether the Great Liao wants to attack the Song Dynasty in the south, or the Great Song Dynasty wants to invade Yanyun in the north, they all have to go to Hebei. The Western Army is actually on the land of Hebei, isn't this a knife to stab Jin Guo's heart?

Since Emperor Jin Wanyan ascended the throne, most of the state affairs have been determined by several NV true fathers, especially his uncle Wanyan Wushu. In addition, Wan Yan Yan has studied Han culture since he was a child, and he has some "L-ng comics" feelings. Specifically, he is a good drinker, a good murderer, and when he gets drunk, he loves whoever he loves.

At the beginning of his accession to the throne, he got rid of Wanyan Zonghan, the founding father of Dajin, that is, Sticky Han. Subsequently, in a series of bloody coups d'état in the Jin Kingdom, the founding heroes such as Zong Pan, Zong Jun, and Xi Yin were killed successively, forming a pattern of the Wushu family dominating. This is not necessarily what the Golden Emperor means, but he is helpless.

was politically unpopular, which made the Jin Emperor, who was "like the son of the Han family", very depressed. After drinking, he killed people when he was drunk, and he was very jealous in the court, and he was really a companion like a tiger.

The Central Plains was lost, and Hebei was attacked, which made the Jin State and the government and the opposition shake everyone in danger, and said such a big thing, should it be reviewed? You have to punish a group of civil and military generals, right? But there is such a person, in the case of the defeat of the Jin Kingdom, he actually rose all the way. This person is Wan Yan Liang.

Before the Song and Jin wars, Wan Yanliang had been promoted to Pingzhang because of the favor of Emperor Jin, and held a certain amount of real power. After the defeat of the Jin army, not only was he not affected, but was promoted to the right prime minister by the Jin Emperor and came to power, with a great tendency to replace his uncle Wanyan Wushu. If you want to say that this person has the talent to go through the heavens and latitudes, at least I don't see it now, and he followed the Wushu to go to Xianghan, but he returned in vain. was ordered to sit in Hedong in danger, but was beaten by Xu Wei to the point that he only had the ability to parry, and had no power to fight back. can rise all the way, in addition to his clan status, a very important reason is that he is very good at pleasing and selling.

Once, Emperor Jin and his brothers put on a family routine, when talking about the difficulties of Jin Taizu Wanyan Agu to start a business, Wanyan Liang cried bitterly, Wanyan looked at it, this brother is very loyal, in addition, these brothers have the same hobbies, they both read Han classics, and they sing poetry when they have nothing to do. It is not surprising that Wanyan Liang is reused.
