Chapter 64: Sons Become Brothers
Since the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty, the north of the Yangtze River has shown a state of separation. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Shandong was under the control of the Ming Dynasty; Hunan, Henan, and Anhui are all Song soil; Shanxi was occupied by the anti-thief Wang Qing; Liu Yu of Hebei, with the support of the Jin State, established himself as the king of Qi; Although the Shaanxi Zhejia claimed to be still the courtiers of the Great Song Dynasty, they were actually in a semi-independent state.
In addition, near the left side of Taihang Mountain, there is also the old department of Tianhu as the party to blame; Under Liu Yu in Hebei, there are still Guo Yaoshi's resentful troops who listen to the tune and do not listen to the propaganda......
But this chaotic situation, since the summer of the first year of Jianyan, has maintained an extremely delicate balance, and there may be verbal battles between each other, but there is no actual fighting.
However, this delicate balance is not destined to last long.
In 1127 AD, the Ming Dynasty was founded in the third year, the Southern Song Dynasty was built in the second year, the Jintianhui was in the fifth year, and the spring was in March.
Lin Dengwan, the governor of Shandong Province in the Ming Dynasty, issued an edict and raised 50,000 troops to attack Liu Yu in Hebei.
Liu Yu, the king of Qi, was shocked three times a day when he heard the news, and the distress letter was thrown like snowflakes, not to say that it was Jin Guo and Wang Qing, so he stayed in the Great Song Dynasty Tokyo to stay in Zongze, and also received several letters of distress from him.
Although Zong Ze was very disdainful of his statement that 'his lips were dead and his teeth were cold,' he also thought that this was a good opportunity, and while reorganizing his army in Henan, he also sent people to fly 800 miles to Hangzhou in a hurry, saying: If the pseudo-Qi wins, it will attack the Ming Dynasty; if the pseudo-Qi is defeated, it will take advantage of the situation to attack Wang Qing in Huaixi, and then use the power of the great victory to deter the Shaanxi family.
I have to say that Zong Ze made a wishful thinking, but unfortunately the monarchs and ministers in Hangzhou City have been stumped by another public case, so can they still take care of the chaos in the Central Plains?

Early March.
The drizzle on the bank of the Qiantang River is like a fly, the boat is like a shuttle, the boat girls on both sides of the strait are constantly singing fishing songs, and occasionally there is a lover singing in duet, which is lingering; There are also those who are inferior and wicked, and after distinguishing their appearance, they either return disappointed, or humiliated; Occasionally, one or two people will engage in a lawsuit for human life, which will lead to the hands of the corrupt officials, causing the rich to ruin their wealth and the poor to ruin their homes.
However, on 22 March, the atmosphere of 'incomparably peaceful and joyful' on the banks of the Qiantang River was smashed by more than a dozen warships with hideous heads.
I saw that each of the battleships was more than a thousand materials, with the front hitting angle, the waist lined with gold and iron, the three poles and five sails on the deck, and the big banner with the word "Ming" on the black background and blood lines was eye-catching!
When the official of the city shipping department heard the news, he saw that the dozen or so warships were lined up in the center of the river, and countless thick iron barrels were erected obliquely on the side of the battlements.
"Your Excellency."
The messenger led by him squinted his eyes and looked at it for a while, and a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and he didn't care about any dignity, so he hurriedly pulled the official robe of Su Jin, the city boss, and said in a trembling voice: "Look at that...... The word 'Ming', isn't the man-eating demon king from the north coming?! ”
After the propaganda of the Southern Song Dynasty court, the reputation of the Ming army in Jiangnan and other places has been 'not inferior' to the ogre king Zhu Cang in the early Tang Dynasty, and the fierce reputation of Wu Kai, the bandit leader, is even more than that.
As a court official, Su Jin's understanding of the Ming army is naturally far better than that of the officials around him, and at this time, the two legs under the official robe, which were already soft cotton, were pulled by this errand and almost fell from the flood control embankment.
He hurriedly waved his sleeves to shake off the entanglement of the gang, half annoyed and half emboldened, and scolded: "Fool! What if it's a false thief? There are no less than 100,000 forbidden troops stationed in Hangzhou, and only a few small boats, can they still capture Hangzhou? ”
As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed at the dozen or so warships, and sneered: "Wait and see, these thieves don't even dare to approach the shore, they only linger in the center of the river, obviously afraid of my Great Song Tianwei!" ”
As soon as these words came out, whether they believed it or not, more than 100 officials and servants around them all nodded yes, and even those who were good at tending to inflammation immediately followed Su Jin's words and degraded the shit of the dozen or so battleships.
Boom, boom, boom......
At this moment, the hundreds of iron barrels held diagonally on the battleship suddenly let out a thunderous roar in unison, and then countless skull-sized projectiles burst into the air, and after they landed, there was a loud rumbling sound, and the blood and flesh on the embankment were filled with smoke and dust!
When the clouds and fog dissipated, and then looked at the place occupied by the officials of the city, the entire section had collapsed, and more than 100 officials were not spared, and they all died in that barrage!
Seeing this scene, but there is still the one who dares to wander on the shore?
Regardless of the old and young, women and children, Shinong, industrialists and industrialists are all rushing to the pigs, only hating the grandmother for giving birth to two legs, and after a moment of effort, the two sides of the strait have only heard the sound of the waves and no one has spoken.
At this time, a small boat was slowly lowered on the flagship headed by him, and in addition to the sailors with oars, there were also the Empress Dowager Wei of the Southern Song Dynasty, Empress Xing Bingyi, and a baby who was still in swaddling clothes.
――Dividing Line――
Half a day later, the emperor's dormitory.
Bang~
Zhao Gou kicked out the spring stool in front of him Xu Yuan, the slightly girly melon seed face was full of anger, he ignored the sharp pain from the soles of his feet, limped towards Xing Bingyi, and said with teeth in his mouth: "Then Wu Da'an dares to bully me like this?" Do you really think that the widow would not dare to kill his wild seed?! ”
At the beginning, after he peeked at the good things of his mother Wei and Wu Kai, he was in a slump from then on, until he left Bianliang, his wife Xing Bingyi was still in perfect shape, and the baby she was holding in her arms at this time was naturally Wu Kai's wild seed!
Thinking of Xing Bingyi's graceful appearance under Wu Kai, Zhao Gou's heart was like a thousand blades piercing his heart, and he stretched out his arms without thinking, and he was about to snatch the baby and fall to the ground!
"Ji Nu [Zhao Gou's name, fictitious]!"
At this moment, Empress Dowager Wei suddenly stopped in front of him, and said with an embarrassed face: "This kid ...... This child is not actually the son of the criminal family. ”
After a pause, seeing that Zhao Gou seemed to have disbelief, he couldn't care a lot, and simply broke the jar and found out the truth: "This kid ...... It's me...... I gave birth to it for Wuda, but it was temporarily entrusted to the name of the Xing family. ”
"What?!"
Zhao Gou was immediately dumbfounded, originally thought that Wuda had made a 'cheap son' for himself, but where did he think that in this swaddling clothes, it was his own brother!
He staggered back a few steps and said sadly, "Mother, you...... You ......"
"Ji Nu!"
Empress Dowager Wei stepped forward and grabbed her son's wrist, and said sadly: "You have to believe that doing all this for your mother is also for your own good-you don't know, that Wuda really has the ability of ghosts and gods, and the firearms he made are difficult for even the Jurchen Iron Cavalry to stop, and it is also convenient for training, and it can become an army in just a few months!" ”
Speaking of this, she hesitated slightly, but still gritted her teeth and said bluntly: "I think my mother sees that this world belongs to his martial arts family after all, if I don't want to retreat early, I am afraid that my son will die in the future and have no place to be buried!" ”
That Xing Bingyi also expected Ai Ai to step forward, and said a word to my mother-in-law, and brought the equipment used by the Ming army, and even those 'artifacts' that had not yet been installed, and Zhao Gou, who only listened, was as cold as ice, and sat on the ground, unable to climb with a half-sound.
"Ji Nu."
Empress Dowager Wei finally said: "Anyway, your body has not been good, and there is no one to pass on after a thousand years, so it is better to ...... first He will first make this child the prince, once he can't do anything, just make him the emperor, then Wuda will look at the relationship between father and son, or be able to tolerate me in a corner of the place. ”
