Chapter 726: Return the capital to Tokyo
The troops in the city were already stretched, and now they had to not only deal with the strong attack of the Song army outside the city, but also send troops to suppress the rebellious soldiers and civilians.
Death of death, surrender of surrender, only he returned to the marshal mansion in the city alone, took off a suit of armor, wore Jurchen clothes, wore a knife on his waist, and solemnly waited for death to come.
The remnants of the Jin army had no organization and command, and the fighting spirit of tens of thousands of Jin troops in the city collapsed, and the Song army entered the city surrounded by the soldiers and civilians in the city.
When the soldiers of the Song army rushed into the Shuaifu, only Wu Yanping was left in the entire Shuaifu.
Wu Yanping was dressed in Jurchen civilian clothes, sitting in the festival hall, and the soldiers of the Song Army, who had already been inspired by Ye Yu to become a tiger and wolf, were targeted, and the falcon-like eyes of the Song Army determined that Wu Yanping was a senior general of the Jin Army, so they scrambled to tear and fight for the first prize!
As the commander of the capital, Wu Yanping calmly looked at the Song army swarming, knowing that his limit had arrived, so he started from behind the handsome case, and this move shocked the Song army to avoid it.
Wu Yanping smiled sadly, and then his breath suddenly became fierce, and he personally held the Jurchen wearing a scimitar, and pounced on the Song soldiers who came like a tide.
As a result, it is conceivable that after slashing and killing two Song soldiers, Wuyanping was hacked to death under the knife!
After Wu Ting led the army into the city, he was quite emotional when he learned about it, a general has achieved ten thousand bones, and it is hateful to be an enemy of Wuyanping, but as a general of the Jin State, such a general is also worthy of respect!
Tokyo was restored, and the land of the Central Plains was declared to have returned. After Wu Ting took full control of Bianjing City, he flew out of the city to welcome Ye Yu's holy car into the city.
Ye Yu rode a royal horse and was surrounded into Bianjing City, which is an epoch-making symbol, and it is also the imperial court that has returned to the Central Plains again after half a century!
Ye Yu was not carried away by the joy of victory, but while entering the city, he ordered Wu Ting to advance his troops to the south bank of the Yellow River non-stop and confront the Hebei Jin army across the river!
The Northern Expedition, which lasted several months, mobilized more than 300,000 horse infantry troops and hundreds of thousands of civilians, and spent a lot of money and food, but at the same time achieved unprecedented results.
However, although the Southern Song Dynasty has been weak in recent years, the economy is very rich, and there is a place where the granary of the world is rich, and Ye Yu keeps moving silver from Japan to China, so there is no shortage of money and grain.
Of course, it is not possible for Iwamiyama's silver to pour directly into the country, but through guò developed maritime shipping to operate the coastal countries, otherwise it will cause a local economic bubble and devalue the currency.
The Song army fought successively, recovering large areas of territory such as Huainan East Road, Jingbei Road, and Gyeonggi Road, and annihilating, capturing, and surrendering more than 100,000 Jin troops.
In order to celebrate the unprecedented victory of the Song army's Northern Expedition to the Central Plains, and to announce the shame of the Great Song Dynasty to the whole world, Ye Yu issued an edict to amnesty the whole world after entering the city.
And while actively preparing for the war, the relocation of the capital was also put on the agenda.
Ye Yu, the emperor, arrived in Bianjing City first, but the imperial court team was still far away in Lin'an, so the central institutions and various political and economic matters were included in the agenda step by step.
Although it was the height of summer, the people of the Central Plains Guangfu District sang and danced with lanterns, which was as lively and festive as the Spring Festival in the middle of winter.
As the people of Jiangnan, although there is no psychological gap between before and after, they are also proud and happy for the majesty of their court!
Wherever the imperial army passed, the governors of the prefectures all went out to welcome the king, and the people cheered.
The young Ye Yu was dressed in a silk robe and wore a crown of heaven, and the soldiers and civilians of the whole city knelt down one after another, shouting like a tide: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”
Tens of thousands of people shouted in unison, and the momentum shook the sky! Even if it is not about himself, he can't help but listen to the blood boiling and heroic!
The capital is also Tokyo, although everything is in ruins, but the emperor leads the important ministers of the court to worship the ancestors, which is a procedure that must be carried out, because it symbolizes that the descendants of the Zhao family inform the ancestors of the good news of the restoration of the Central Plains.
In this matter, Ye Yu couldn't be sloppy, he waited in Tokyo for a month, and finally looked forward to the Emperor Zhao Yan, and then went to worship the ancestors of the Zhao family with his father, who was not close.
Emperor Zhao Yan came all the way from Lin'an to Bianjing, because this was a scene he would only see in his dreams.
Now that his dream has finally come true, how can he not let him burst into tears?
In the Taimiao, Zhao Yan couldn't stop crying, this was also the first time Ye Yu saw the weak side of the former emperor.
Although the matter of moving the capital was cumbersome, Ye Yu did not forget to hold a celebration banquet.
The reward for meritorious deeds is the best consolation for the soldiers, so Ye Yu held a grand celebration banquet in the Daqing Hall of the Forbidden Middle School.
At the celebration banquet, in addition to Ye Yu and hundreds of civil and military officials, it also included Emperor Zhao Yan, royal relatives, and senior citizens all attended the banquet.
The celebration banquet was spent in an almost carnival-like atmosphere, and the next thing was for the court affairs to get on the normal track.
In the promulgation of various edicts and regulations such as pacifying the people, restoring order, and stabilizing the people's livelihood, the soldiers of the Northern Expedition were also rewarded and punished.
The officers and men in the army threw their heads and spilled their blood, what was the purpose of fighting on the battlefield?
For the loyalty of the monarch and the peace of the people, although these are the goals, they are too vague and unrealistic.
After the military merits were reviewed at various levels, Jiang Fu discussed with several governors to plan for Yu Hangkun to build a festival, Wu Xi and Gu Xifeng to be promoted from the third grade, and a series of civilian official titles that even Ye Yu couldn't tell.
The rest of the people were also rewarded according to their respective military exploits, and at the same time, Ye Yu actively deployed troops to cooperate with the Western Road army this time, and Ye Yu also fulfilled his original promise to abolish the young lord of Western Xia, and inherited the prince of Western Xia by Daochong!
In the meritorious reward, the most worthy of consideration is Wu Ting's reward, which makes Jiang Fu and Yue Lin and others really difficult to comment, so they have to hand over this problem to Ye Yu to solve.
Because Ye Yu's mention yì is the king, this really makes the ministers a little difficult.
You must know the ancestral system of the Great Song Dynasty, ministers with different surnames generally do not take the king lightly, and most of the kings with different surnames in the three hundred years of the Song Dynasty will only be posthumously crowned after death!
When Ye Yu ascended the throne, he canonized Chai Shuxia as the king of Jin, because the Chai family has been a royal nobleman since the beginning of the Zhao family, which is a special case outside the ancestral system of the Great Song Dynasty.
Therefore, Ye Yu's canonization of Chai Shuxia was just a restoration of the prince of the Chai family.
Although Dao Chong is of the opposite sex, he has a great contribution to the pacification of Western Xia, and the prince of Hu Dao Chong is not a title but an inheritance, which is a very exquisite knowledge.
Moreover, the inheritance of the prince was a promise given by Ye Yu back then, and now Ye Yugui is the son of heaven.
Although Jiang Fu and Yue Lin and others know this truth well, they can also understand Ye Yu's intention to give Wu Ting the title of king, after all, with Wu Ting's qualifications and today's military exploits, it is natural to go further.
Moreover, Wu Ting, as the leader of the Southwest Military Town Group, also had a dragon contribution to Ye Yu's ascension to the throne and emperor.
Therefore, in the face of the ancestral system and the current mind, the ministers of the court and the central government are all selectively silent.
Sometimes silent, but also a kind of silent struggle, after Ye Yu hesitated again and again, he personally wrote an edict, highly praised and evaluated Wu Ting's merits, sealed the Zhenguo Gong, and entered the important military affairs of Pingzhang, and the civilian position was the same as the head of Zaifu.
