Volume 9 Saving the Sky Chapter 795 [Breaking the Siege]

I heard Lu Junyi frown and said: "It can't be said that people are not as good as heaven, when the Lord formulated the Bianliang Codex, he didn't also count the matter of seeking peace, but I didn't expect things to develop so quickly...... The Zhao official family couldn't wait for the Qin Wang's division from all over the country to come to help, so they had to negotiate peace with the Jin people in private.

The letter was sent by Lin Chong personally, but he was the most calm one, so he listened to him: "I know the most in the city, if it weren't for the insistence of Master Li Gang and Zong Zezong these days, I am afraid that peace should have been negotiated a long time ago." ”

Huang Jie smiled bitterly when he heard this, so he also said: "It's no wonder that Li Gang and Zong Ze ...... this matter."

Yue Fei on the side heard this, but slapped his palm on his thigh and shouted: "Don't blame him, but who is to blame?" Thinking about it, he must have never told the official family about the strategy of catching turtles in the urn! ”

Huang Jie smiled bitterly: "What if you say it clearly?" Do you think that Zhao Huan really dares to let go and wait with me? Now that I see, Li Gang didn't talk to him, but it was good. ”

The strategy of catching turtles in the urn in this "Bianliang Codex" is, to put it bluntly, to let go of half of Tokyo City as a trap, intending to wipe out the Jin Army, which is a dangerous strategy, and naturally secrecy is the most important thing in the process of facts. In addition, it seems that Li Gang also had selfish intentions in this matter before, perhaps thinking that he would monopolize the credit for defending Tokyo, but he also did a tight job of keeping this policy secret, but now it is really better to count people than heaven, and I can't imagine that Zhao Huan's guy can't hold on to it first, and he actually preemptively negotiated peace with Jinren.

At this time, Wu Song, who had been listening like a wooden chicken, suddenly said thoughtlessly: "Negotiation of peace is not necessarily a bad thing!" The golden man retreated, and I waited for the tail to chase and kill, wouldn't it? ”

When everyone heard this, they all came to look at Wu Song and glare, and Huang Jie also shook his head and said nothing, and he didn't bother to break with him.

Then, Huang Jie also said: "That's it! The matter has come to this point, only wait and see what happens, since Huang Zhouwei did not catch up, there is no need to expose it, but to see if the development of this matter is as expected. ”

With such a plan, there is naturally no need to say much about miscellaneous matters, and after Chong Xuan and Zhe Yuemei passed the news to Seed Master Zhong and Zhi Keshi respectively, the two of them were able to accept it calmly in addition to a certain degree of surprise. As planned, the troops of the two families also stood still and waited to see what happened.

But it is also said that on the night of March 14, after the news of the finalization of the "Shengping Covenant" came out, Zhao Huan immediately took resolute action, first ordered the internal and external treasury and the sealing pile library to be scavenged, and then raised 50,000 taels of gold and more than 2 million taels of silver. But even so, he only got more than 100,000 taels of gold and more than 200,000 taels of silver, and Zhao Huan had to hit the idea on the princes of the clan and the relatives of the emperor, and even the concubine in the palace also asked him to scrape out more than 100,000 taels of silver, and finally raised the down payment that was promised to the Jinren.

Only on March 18, Zhao Huan sent an edict to the three towns of Taiyuan, Zhongshan, and Hejian, as well as their subordinate counties and the state army north of the three towns, so that they were ready to cede to the Jin. Although Li Gang resolutely opposed the cession of land, he also thought that the amount of military expenses was too much, and advocated sending envoys to negotiate with Jin to delay the time, so as to wait for the arrival of reinforcements from King Qin from all over the country. However, Li Gang's opinion was opposed by the ministers, and Li Gang angrily proposed to resign, but Zhao Huan refused to allow it.

Staying here on March 20, Zhao Huan sent Li Di, Zheng Wangzhi and others to escort the first phase of 200,000 taels of gold, 4 million taels of silver, and more than 10,000 horses of thick silk, and King Kang Zhao Gou and Prime Minister Zhang Bangchang went to Jinying as hostages.

At this point, the millions of taels of indemnity were given, and Zhao Huan did not dare to deal with the Jin army about this grain and grass, so he also forced Li Gang to open the grain depot of the defenders, allocated 10,000 stone of fine grain, and sent the forbidden Imperial Forest Army, etc., together with the officials of Kaifeng Mansion to scavenge livestock among the people, because Bianliang was besieged very urgently, the people did not hoard too much livestock in the city, and had to obtain the consent of the Jin army, Zhao Huan actually sent the forbidden army to the surrounding areas of Bianliang to forcibly collect cattle and sheep, and sent them to make up with the Jin army.

On March 24, when the Jin army was about to leave, the reinforcements of the king of Qin gradually came to the capital, and the first batch of recruits led by Ma Zhong, the commander of the Hebei Road, had just arrived at Kaifeng City, and encountered the Jin soldiers at Shuntianmen, and Ma Zhong led his troops to take the initiative to attack, killing and wounding many Jin soldiers.

Then, 10,000 cavalry led by Fan Qiong also arrived from Jingdong and set up camp in the northeast of Jinying to monitor. On the 25th, the 8,000 Xiangyang soldiers led by Chongshidao and the 7,000 frontier guards of Jingyuan and Qinfeng led by Yao Pingzhong of the Wu'an Army Chengxuan also came.

Then, the reinforcements of King Qin from all over the country arrived, 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, and the Jin army had to retreat north to defend Mu Huogang, and Kaifeng City was temporarily relieved.

However, at this time, the Jin army threatened the lives of King Kang Zhao Gou and Prime Minister Zhang Bangchang, and asked the Song army to get out of the way and return north, Li Gang and others originally strongly demanded not to allow it, but Zheng Wangzhi and Li Di and others said that Zhao Huan was still very dangerous in Tokyo, and it was better to let them cross the Yellow River first, and then order the Song army to attack them on the north bank of the Yellow River, so as to ensure the safety of Tokyo and the prefectures and counties on the south bank of the Yellow River.

Zhao Huan was so convinced of this statement that he successively issued edicts asking the divisions of King Qin in various places not to provoke the Jin army, let alone launch an attack on the south bank.

Even in order to send the Jin army across the north bank as soon as possible, Zhao Huan also sent Lieutenant General Yu Wenxu to send the edict of cession of the three towns intercepted by Li Gang to Jinying, and fully agreed to Jin's request for land cession and compensation, and even sent Su King Zhao Shu to Jinying instead of Kang King Zhao Gou, thus satisfying Jin's request for hostage replacement.

Under these circumstances, the Jin army began to withdraw on April 2, and under the watchful eye of more than 100,000 Qinwang troops under the command of the Seed Master, they all crossed the Yellow River on April 6, and the threat to the city of Tokyo was lifted.

It's just that the Jin army that crossed the Yellow River, before the Song army, which crossed the river after them, came ashore, and abandoned all the silk, grain, grass, cattle and sheep and other things given in Tokyo City on the side of the road, and the whole army only took away gold and silver and other valuables, and held Zhao Shu and Zhang Bangchang hostage and quickly rushed north.

When the planter who had just crossed the river and stepped on the north bank heard the news, he was immediately so angry that he vomited blood and fainted, and only woke up three days later.
